I have tried to follow the instructions in your response but with
difficulty. However, I opened terminal and input "tail -n0 -f
/var/log/syslog > /tmp/syslog" and this was the result: -

bobharesce...@ubuntu:~$  tail -n0 -f /var/log/syslog > /tmp/syslog

I then opened a new terminal and input the test case and got: -

bobharesce...@ubuntu:~$ sudo killall NetworkManager

The syslog terminal didn't change. Must be doing something wrong
somewhere.

I have tried many things since posting the bug and recently got the linux 
driver from Realtek but failed to get this running.
I may have worsened the situation rather than moving towards a solution.
My knowledge of terminal and the deeper workings of Ubuntu are limited so 
please be patient!
