Subject: rtl8192se hanging completely

Dear all,

(please cc)

I am having serious troubles with my rtl8192se card:

kernel: 3.6.0-rc2+, compiled from git today, same with rc1
rtl8192se in kernel driver, loaded with debug=3
Debian sid
Lenovo Thinkpad Edge

When starting from cold boot, the driver associates, but no packet
whatsoever leaves the computer it seems, pinging the gateway
does not return anything, and ns lookups are not working.

In the logs I see many instances of:
rtlwifi:rtl_tx_agg_start():<0-0> on ra = 00:0a:79:eb:56:10 tid = 6 seq:39
rtlwifi:rtl_action_proc():<200-1> Tx ACT_ADDBAREQ From :88:9f:fa:f9:07:28
rtlwifi:rtl_tx_agg_stop():<0-0> on ra = 00:0a:79:eb:56:10 tid = 6
rtlwifi:rtl_action_proc():<400-1> ACT_ADDBADEL From :88:9f:fa:f9:07:28
rtlwifi:rtl_action_proc():<10000-1> Rx ACT_ADDBARSP From :00:0a:79:eb:56:10
in various orders.


trying to remove the module gave me:

After that I reloaded the module and then it is getting worse:

rtl8192se:_rtl92se_read_adapter_info():<0-0> RTL819X Not boot from eeprom, check it !!

rtlwifi:rtl_pci_tx():<200-1> No more TX desc@6, ring->idx = 0, idx = 0, skb_queue_len = 0x0

etc etc.

That is the end, no connection at all, and no way (AFAIS) to get
it back.

Are there any suggestions, patches, ideas to fix and track that down?

THanks a lot
