Public bug reported:

Installed Ubuntu 9.04 32-bit (kernel 2.6.28-12) on a PC featuring an RTL8185L ( 
http://152.104.125.41/products/productsView.aspx?Langid=1&PFid=1&Level=6&Conn=5&ProdID=35
 ) based Wi-Fi PCI card (believe it to be an Edimax EW-7326Ig: 
http://www.edimax.com/en/produce_detail.php?pd_id=259&pl1_id=1&pl2_id=44 ).
The card is detected out-of-the-box. Network-Manager detects Wi-Fi networks 
correctly (including used encryption). But when trying to connect, it fails 
every time be it WEP, WPA or unprotected. Same thing with WICD and Wifi-radar.

I downloaded and compiled driver from the Realtek website: 
http://152.104.125.41/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PFid=1&Level=6&Conn=5&ProdID=35&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#352
(version 1030 at the time of writing).

Result: The system won't boot again, hanging on RTL driver loading.

I don't have much info since it's a relative's PC so I don't have easy
access to his computer.
