A quick report on my experience with kernel 2.6.32-26:
First, installing this kernel version appeared to overwrite the Realtek-
supplied driver (see #54 above, second-to-last paragraph), but the
driver supplied with the kernel suffered from the same flaws as the
driver supplied with 2.6.32-25.
Just reporting back: Only problem in nine days was one random
disconnect, so I consider my problem fixed... phew!
@dmbfan2007: If you're still having problems, and you're using 32-bit, I
would suggest trying the ndiswrapper route. It is fairly straightforward
and easily reversible.

If you happen to have the source code, just follow the instructions provided by
realtek to me:
Dear Sir / Madam,
Thanks for your mail.
Please find the latest RTL8191SE Linux driver source in the attachment.
You should clear previous drive or inbox driver first after you install this
@Jobo
Thanks for your documentation. I have the rtl819xSE using a rtl8191SEvB and am
seeing nearly the exact same thing. I'm not so great with moving drivers in
and out, so I'm afraid to try half the stuff you have without breaking it all.

Wireless won't work on Lenovo Thinkpad T510 -
I've been continuing to try to find a workaround for this problem, and I
thought I would share what I've tried, what hasn't worked, and what
seems now to be working.
First, I tried installing the lastest Linux driver from Realtek's site
(v. 2.6.0018.1025.2010) following the readme included with
The problem is still here for me running any version of this driver
either from Ubuntu or Realtek themselves. I have even tried emailing
their tech support for help and the drivers they sent me still cause the
same problems, some even worse than before. For me even if I am not
connected to
my problems seem to have been solved but even so I would recommend to
ubuntu users that they replace any realtek wifi cards rather than deal
with this -- on many laptops this is not as hard as it sounds. It would
be nice if this chipset is also listed in a compatibility database
somewhere
The driver that comes with ubuntu works for a while, but i have no idea
how to restart it when it breaks down (or how to identify when it breaks
down as easily as identifying the realtek drivers breaking down). I've
discovered that overall heat affects connectivity and even direction of
the laptop
Just adding my two cents here because I don't think this bug has been
fixed.
I have a Lenovo X201 (3249CTO) laptop with the Realtek 3172 (rev. 10)
card. I am running Ubuntu 10.04 with the 2.6.32-25.45 generic kernel,
and using the r8192se_pci kernel module and (per lspci) the rtl819xSE
kernel
One additional point: Once it connects, it works just fine, until/unless
it eventually freezes out of the blue. I.e., I don't experience the poor
reception, dropped connections, etc. that some other folks have
reported. --Jobo
