I often have problems with the current driver provided by Realtek. It seems the connexion is quite unstable and I often get kernel panic like this one: rtl8192se_rx_normal+0x143/0x400 scheduler-tick+0xe1/0x2f0 tasklet-action+0xa8/0x60 _do_softirq+0xa5/0x130 ack_apic_level+0x6d/0x210 call_softirq+0x1c/0x30 do_softirq+0x4d/0x80 irq_exit+0x8d/0x90 do_irq+0x6b/0x0 ret_from_intr+0x0/0x [<EOI>] acpi_idle_enter_c1+0xad/0xc7 [processor] ack-idle-enter-c1+0x8d/0xc7 [processor] cpuidle-idle-call+0x8c/0xf0 cpu-idle+0x58/0xb skb-put+0x88/0x90 kernel panic not syncing fatal exception in interrupt PID: 0, comm: kworker/0;1 Tainted G D 2.6.36 call trace: panic+0xa1/0x1a3 oops_end+0xaf/0xe0 do_invalid_op+0x84/0xa0 skb_put+0x88/0x90 invalid_op+0x15/0x20 skb_put+0x88/0x90 I already asked realtek support about this but I didn't get a lot of help from them. So, I would be interested to see if the new driver you talked about perfoms better.
