Kernel 3.6.0 works, newer doesn't
Hi there, Sorry, I'm new to this list, so excuse my newbie question. I have Linux 3.6.0-030600-generic #201209302035 SMP Mon Oct 1 00:36:01 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux installed and it works great. My WLAN driver works with this version, but not with any newer version of the kernel. Am I right that backports can help me with that? Can I somehow upgrade to a newer version of the kernel and keep my WIFI USB driver and maybe even upgrade to newer kernels? Or even better, does someone here have the capacity to fix the problem in newer kernels? My Wifi USB Card is the Asus USB N13 ``` lsusb Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp.

I suggest working with the driver authors of that driver to fix it to work with the latest kernel version. It is merged into the main kernel.org repo, right? Which one is it?
