Description Przemyslaw Kulczycki 2009-05-25 17:09:17 UTC

Linksys WUSB54GC-EU v2 USB wifi dongle has USB ID 1737:0073 and is not detected by Linux 2.6.28 (Ubuntu 9.04). The Windows driver shows that it has the RTL8187B chipset so the rtl8187 module should support it.

On which kernel should I apply this patch?
I'm quite a newbie when it comes to kernel patching.
