Hardware Environment: Toshiba Satellite L300-110 laptop (with built-in USB wireless card RTL8187b, DEVICE ID 0bda:8198) Problem Description: 2.6.27 Kernel cannot detect wireless card. Problem goes out, if in rtl8187_dev.c file i add a line with this card DEVID: {USB_DEVICE(0x0bda, 0x8198), .driver_info = DEVICE_RTL8187B}, After this done and recompiling module, card works fine(tested it for hours with WEP and without authentication)
