Due to various API changes and some changes in the Makefiles of Linux, current version of the driver doesn't build any more on Linux 2.6.20.
After reading through various docs and sources I think I correctly adapted it to the API changes. Compiles and runs on a Debian Etch with a (manually installed) 2.6.20 kernel. Patch attached.
I'm using a DWL-510 NIC, lspci:

Any idea if x86_64 support will be available for Fedora 7 soon?.

Thank you Wojciech,
This got me up and running again!
(I have a Linksys WPC11 ver.4 on a Gentoo laptop)

Please try to add a rtl_ prefix to the variable ieee80211_debug_level in line 119 of ieee80211.h .
The line should read:
...
do { if (rtl_ieee80211_debug_level & (level)) \
...
This line is inside #ifdef, and my Fedora 7 uses the other option.
Let me know the results.

I have the same errors.
Can you fix it? I can't compile rtl8180-0.21 driver at my gentoo-kernel (2.6.22).

Hi,
Thanks for this! I am getting many build errors, however. They are all the same:
localhost rtl8180-0.22_pre20070726 # make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.22-suspend2-r1/build SUBDIRS=/home/ben/rtl8180-0.22_pre20070726 M=/home/ben/rtl8180-0.22_pre20070726 modules

This is a port of Ivan Majhen's mods to recent svn. It works for me on update kernels for Fedora 7 wihout removing any original modules.
Please test.

I got a similar thing; Try removing the MODVERDIR=xxxx part from the Makefile build line.
This probably won't fix everything; I'm trying to build against 2.6.23-rc3, and that is the least of the problems that I was having. It just looks like the kernel API has changed so much that the code won't compile against it without someone going in and taking a fresh look.

Thanks a million for your work. As soon as I invoked the 2 correct insmod commands, my card lit up and I was connected (a great surprise after days of struggle with ndiswrapper and various open drivers).
The card is an Edimax EW-7106PC. Realtek chipset. Ubuntu 7.04, kernel 2.6.20-16. If any other details would help, I'm happy to provide them.
It would be very very helpful if someone...
