Hello all, I ran into the same problem on Toshiba Satellite A 500-18Q. I found a solution that works quite well.
After installing the driver as noted here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/544485?comments=all I created a script that changes to the directory of the driver and runs the wlan0up script provided there and I have put it in to the rc.local script. It works even after upgrading kernels without modifications (so far :-) ) nano /usr/local/bin/wifi_workaround.sh #!/bin/bash cd /the_path_to_the_driver..../rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0017.0507.2010 ./wlan0up chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/wifi_workaround.sh and add these lines to /etc/rc.local : # The wifi error workaround.. /usr/local/bin/wifi_workaround.sh I hope it helps someone..
