 To use the driver with aircrack-ng, it's recommended that you apply the following patch:
-[[http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/rtl8187-mac80211-injection-speed-2.6.28-rc6.patch]]
+  * 2.6.28: [[http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/rtl8187-mac80211-injection-speed-2.6.28-rc6.patch]]
+  * 2.6.29 and up: [[http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/mac80211-2.6.29-fix-tx-ctl-no-ack-retry-count.patch]] (this should also fix [[p54]])
-For wireless-testing/compat-wireless, use [[http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/rtl8187-mac80211-injection-speed-2.6.28-wl.patch]]
+  * wireless-testing/compat-wireless: No patch needed, fixed upstream.
 In addition, apply the latest [[mac80211]] [[http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/mac80211_2.6.28-rc4-wl_frag+ack_v3.patch|frag+ack patch]].
 If you have r8187/r8187b installed, don't forget to blacklist it before using this driver.
+Just a reminder that if you are using the Compat-Wireless version, then only the fragmentation is required since the other changes are already included.  This [[http://forum.aircrack-ng.org/index.php?topic=5755.0|forum posting]] provides an excellent description of how to install the compat-wireless software.
