Default Re: Realtek RTL8187B Driver for OpenSuSE?
The RTL8187B is not supported until kernel 2.6.27.

I would not try to use the vendor driver - it is a real can of worms. What I
suggest is to Google for compat-wireless and download the latest version and
build it. That will get you the latest version of the driver found in the
wireless-testing kernel.

FWIW, you should post wireless questions in the wireless forum - you will get
noticed there.
