This is not the fault of rtl8187 driver, but something wrong with in
the Fn Key Handler of Loongson kernel module that I discovered when
just get my laptop.
I'm using my own kernel tree with many features. You can checkout the
source code and binary at here [0]. I check the source code of
Loongson kernel module, but I can't figure out the problem. I have to
create a patch [1] to disable to Fn handler (But Fn keys are still
working) to workaround the issue.

It is based on upstream kernel instead of the linux-loongson-community
because of the outdated code and some unknown bug. I added genpatches,
e-sources' (the kernel tree maintained by me in #gentoo-zh) patches,
and more loongson specific drivers ported linux-loongson-community and
more patches for bugfixes and enhancement.

BTW, can you or do you know any kernel developers can help us to
figure out the issue?
