I just happen to have spend 2 days recently getting such a card to work. With older versions of the realtek provided driver you will get bad reception with newer versions a kernel panic due to stack corruption. After spending too much time on this, I've found at that this version: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36688638/rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0010.1211.2009.tar.gz Which is the 0010 version + bugfixes for 64 bit and the bad reception issue (power of the transmitter programmed too low) fixed works very well. I meant to write a blog pist about this but I have not gotten around to this yet. Note this version is attached to this launchpad bug, which comes with 186 comments: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/401126?comments=all Enjoy, Hans -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Realtek 8192se on F12/F13
Hi, What is the status of support for the Realtek 8192se WiFi controller in F12 and F13? I see in some wiki page a reference to the Realtek website, at least for (stock) F12. Is this chipset in the meantime supported in the F12 kernel and/or will it be supported in F13?

I build the wireless driver on my netbook whenever updating the vendor driver with the patch attached here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=558337#c4 It's a bit of a pain, but once built it works great. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Thanks, As far as I know, the 8192se is yet to enter the main kernel tree. For now, I'm using the latest version of realtek.com [1] (it builds cleanly on F12), which more-or-less works.
