Will, Very nice work and thank you so much for posting your changes. The build succeeded after applying your patch and so far the wireless adapter has been performing admirably (over the last several hours). Streaming, large downloads - no problem. Funny, I've always thought that the hardware that shipped with this laptop was bunk because with Vista I often had a lot of problems even getting a handshake going with the AP. I would always get "no response from router" until I got really close to the AP. With this realtek driver on Ubuntu it connects to WEP network even when I'm a few rooms away. Hmmm...
The good news is I can officially ditch Vista on this laptop now :) This Hardy release really has a lot of nice touches and I'm excited that I can pretty much make Ubuntu my full time OS now. Hopefully this driver issue will be resolved by release. It would be a win for all the cheapo laptop owners out there! BTW I'm running on AMD64x2.
