@ Dmanges et al.
I was also tearing out my hair over this. 

I been working on a brand new Novatech Explora that my mother is going
to use. I recently installed Karmic Koala beta, in order to make the
wired network work - which it now does. Shortly afterwards, Karmic was
upgraded to the release candidate, earlier today. This RC has the
2.6.31-14 kernel.

And needless to say, when I tried to get the wireless network to work,
the rtl8192se driver would not compile whatever I did. Grrrr!!!

So I tried a different tack. In a nutshell, instead of "sudoing" the
compilation commands, I used the switch user command, thus: sudo su.
Then I ran make & make install.

Whilst the compile part still threw up a couple of warnings, the install
part worked perfectly and now I too have a fully working rtl8192se
wireless network.

To reiterate, cd to the directory containing your extracted driver files
and then do this:-

sudo su
make
make install

I'd be interested to know if this works for anyone else. And I'd be even
more interested to learn WHY it works! :-)

@ David Woo: Thanks for all your efforts on this. People like you really
do make the Internet a better place IMHO.

Best wishes, G.
