Description Frank Griffin 2012-04-29 16:57:24 CEST 
In current cauldron, the use of rtl8192se for some chips has been changed to use r8192se_pci which is a driver in staging.  However, there is no such module.  The staging module is r8192e_pci.

I'm assuming that ldetect-lst is what harddrake uses to obtain the module name of r8192se_pci.  In any event, that is what it displays for the module name.

The result is that a range of RTL wifi chips are now broken.

Also, with the RTL8191SEvB device (0x10ec/0x8172/0x10ec/0x8181), even manually loading the staging driver doesn't allow drakconnect to see it.

pcitable has no reference to that driver
This came from dkms-modules-info.
Blino, time to clean up?
