@ 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.
