At least some people are reporting kernel panics with the Realtek closed-source drivers (one here, 3 more on lp:585938).
1) can anyone subscribed to this bug test whether running powertop with the r8192se_pci module loaded causes a kernel panic (running in a VT at least lets you see the kernel panic message, so you know what's happening)? 2) anyone have any ideas how to report bugs to the Realtek upstream? 3) given that the crash is reliably caused by powertop, does anyone have workaround ideas (that is, what does powertop do to cause the crash, and can we stop whatever other processes are doing that same thing from performing that action? I bet it has something to do with probing the power-saving state. or something like that.
