Bug Description

My wireless card rt8187 was working fine. I installed another RTL driver from http://rtl-wifi.sourceforge.net/wiki/Installing
It still worked. But after reboot, I noticed it doesn't detect the wireless card anymore. How to remove the new driver?

jakhongir@jakhongir-desktop:~$ iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.
