I've been looking at the patch to fix this out-of-tree OEM driver from
Realtek and have decided not to apply it, mostly 'cause I think there
are better solutions. We offer Compat Wireless backport packages from
kernel versions v2.6.33 through v3.3. The rtl8192se driver went mainline
as of v3.0, so I would try installing one of the more recent compat
wireless packages. You can see which packages are available thusly:

apt-cache search linux-backports-modules-wireless

I would start out by installing CW from 3.3:

sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-wireless-3.3-lucid-generic

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Lucid)
       Status: In Progress => Won't Fix
