Subject: rtl8192se static driver in 3.14 kernel not working

It seems that we have a different problem with this driver from others I
mentioned in a recent thread.

I have compiled a kernel from the 3.14.7 from linux-source-3.14 from
Debian for use on a Samsung N120 netbook.

Included in the .config are:

CONFIG_WLAN=y
CONFIG_RTL_CARDS=y
CONFIG_RTL8192SE=y

There are no LKMs or initramfs.

The wireless does not work at all. dmesg shows the pci device but there
is no sign of the wireless driver.

With a 2.6 kernel set up similarly the wireless works.

Please post the entire .config.
