WOOHOOO!!!! Success!!!! Thanks Mike Steigerwalt! I had given up hope and bought a usb wireless device which was pretty choppy online. I read your post and decided to get the latest driver here: http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=21&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true
I compiled this, rebooted and even missed getting into the screen to add the startup parameters and even WITHOUT the acpi setting, it worked right out of the gate!! I am still on Karmic 9.04 with all the latest patches and amd64bit - man am I delighted! -- Realtek RTL8192SE WLAN Card Fails to work on Medion Akoya E1312 Netbook https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/401126 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
