Hi All,
can somebody please help me to install realtek wireless PCI card with
rtl8180L chipset?
So far I did only few steps:
 I downloaded a driver from
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloads1-3.aspx?software=True&compamodel=RTL8180L
(But I'm even not sure if this driver is suitable for FreeBSD)

 in makefile I changed NCLUDEPATH=-I/usr/src/linux-$(KERNELRELEASE)/include/  
 to INCLUDEPATH=-I /usr/src/include/

then I try to make, but I've got an error message:
make: don't know how to make %.o:. Stop

So I experimented a little with makefile (without knowing what I'm realy
doing :-) )
I chanched a line:
${OPEN_OBJS}: %.o: %.h r8180_type.h r8180_export.h
to
${OPEN_OBJS}: *.o: r8180_type.h r8180_export.h
then it finally starts compile, but I found I do not have all needed header
files output was as follows:
homeserver# make all
gcc -O6 -Wall -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -DLINUX -I /usr/src/include/
-DRTL_IO_MAP -DRTL_LITTLE_ENDIAN -DRTL_ACT_AS_STA -DRTL8180_DRV_ON_PC
-DENABLE_DBG_PRINT -c -o r8180_pci_init.o r8180_pci_init.c

etc...

I also found in forum a discussion between Anthony Naggs and Aladar Luke
that they going to make their own driver for FreeBSD, but I did not found
the driver itself.

Thanks in advance for any help.
