Hi,

i recently upgraded my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad T500) from squeeze to
testing and the PCMCIA Wifi card I was using now crashes my system, so I'm
back to try to use my internal Wifi card.

It's a Realtek 8192SEvB

# lspci -nn|grep -i wireless
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL8191SEvB Wireless LAN Controller [10ec:8172] (rev 10)

When looking at http://wiki.debian.org/rtl819x#supported-r8192-pci this
model is usable with the rtl8192se driver.

When I rmmod and then modprobe the module, the Wifi card appears quickly in
NetworkManager, and connects to my known network, but it quickly
disconnects and became unavalaible and I can do nothing to try to connect
again, except rmmod & modprobe but with the same results.

I have no idea what the problem can be and how to resolve it, so I come
here to know if someone have one.

In squeeze, this card was not recognized and the available driver on the
Realtek website never compile (because I'm on amd64 i think) but now in
testing the driver seems to be ok, the firmware is available and there is a
quick lapse of time when everything works well... so I think I could make
this damn internal card works completely but I need some help...

Thanks in advance.
