Realtek RTL8187 WiFi driver for Fedora 7 (August 10, 2007)
Originally, I had Debian Lenny/SID on my Neo laptop. When I had problems 
compiling an important open source utility under Debian, I decided to replace 
it with Fedora 7. The driver for Realtek RTL8187 WiFi from sourceforge.net 
compiled and run successfully under Debian, The same source code compiles 
without error on Fedora 7, but when run, it announces a lot of undefined 
symbols. So RTL8187 support for Fedora from sourceforge does not work.

So I tried ndiswrapper, which compiles without warnings when I built a new 
Fedora 7 kernel 2.6.22-1.41 that has no 4k kernel stack size limit. It seems 
that Windows drivers will not work with 4k stack size limits of the normal 
Linux kernel. So I installed ndiswrapper, downloaded some Windows drivers for 
RTL8187, and installed one-by-one under ndiswrapper. None of the Windows 
drivers worked.

I need help from someone who has done this before.  Any one?
