The troy branch loads rtl8192eefw_new.bin; however, after some testing and consultation with Realtek, I determined that there was no need to keep separate names. For that reason and to minimize the disk usage, the kernel loads rtl8192eefw.bin. You can copy the one with the _new in its name to the one without, if you want to use the later version. The updated firmware is already in the linux-firmware repo, and will be propagated through the distros in time.
The rtl_cam logged items indicate the changing of the wifi keys. The second one tells you that the connection has been dropped. It is NOT the cause of the drop. I have been using the driver for over 24 hours. There have been several disconnects in that time; however, the recovery has been automatic. One thing to note is that the transmit is somewhat fragile. Operations like continuous iperf or flood pings will likely cause a failure and are discouraged at least for the moment. Realtek knows of the problem and is working on it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1239578 Title: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hwe-next/+bug/1239578/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
