0bda:819a RTL8188CUS WLAN doesn't work out of the box in downstream

xose.vazquez@xxxxxxxxx wanted me to test in different system the
following commands:
# sudo su
# modprobe -v rtl8192cu
# echo "0bda 819a" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rtl8192cu/new_id
(# dmesg (log output))
then X crashes with the echo command and I see the dmesg output
I can't get back to X and I'm not able to reach any tty-shell.
Tested with 64bit-isos Ubuntu 12.04 / 12.10 / Fedora 17 / Fedora
18beta and upstream kernel linux-image-3.8.0-030800rc4-generic
You are likely crashing more than X.
That is very good evidence that rtl8192cu is *NOT* the correct driver for that
device. As I recall Xose found that USB ID in a Windows driver, but who knows
what changes are inside that driver?
I have what I think is a complete collection of Realtek drivers for Linux, and
none of them have 0bda:819a as a USB ID.
