Try ndiswrapper?

I have a Hiro H50191 WLAN USB adapter to setup in FreeBSD, Linux and NetBSD: 
chip is Realtek RTL8191S.  Maybe related to RTL8187?

I can't get to it now, have to build FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE from source, from 
FreeBSD 9.0-RC3, then I plan to try to cross-build NetBSD for both the new 
computer (amd64) and old (i386); Linux too.

If there is no working native driver, I intend to try ndiswrapper to see if it 
works.

I already have NetBSD 5.1_STABLE and FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE on old computer.
