I experience the same problem, with the same dmseg output. However I only experience this sometimes after a suspend, as well as sometimes on startup.
"rmmod r8192_pci ; modprobe r8192_pci" usually restores functionality, but sometimes it doesn't. If I run the command repeatedly (2-5 times), it fixes the problem most of the time. Once or twice, I've had to restart to fix the problem. Sometimes the wireless connection also just dies after a while - in this case the dmesg output after running rmmod and modprobe is the same (assuming that running the commands doesn't restore wireless). I'm running up-to-date 32-bit Xubuntu 10.04 (with the firmware fix from Bug #508746 installed from lucid-proposed) on a Samsung N150. dmseg output: [ 14.606740] rtl819xE: PlatformInitFirmware()==> [ 14.644982] rtl819xE 0000:05:00.0: firmware: requesting RTL8192E/boot.img [ 14.664889] rtl819xE 0000:05:00.0: firmware: requesting RTL8192E/main.img [ 14.756040] rtl819xE:Download Firmware: Put code fail!
