Would it be possible to be part of some kind of testing group for this 'new' driver. I have been using r8192se_pci (*) for a couple of days, but I have the feeling this driver keeps filling in my computer's memory. I have to reboot to clean the memory (I have not found any other way). Using linux 2.6.37 from debian unstable Thanks again for your time, -- Mathieu (*) http://www.realtek.com/products/productsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=21&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&ProdID=226
