What I noticed is that your script refers to module se while I have a ce. (I am not sure if this can impact or explain the differences between your setup and mine). When I download the drivers from?http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download#Where_to_download_bleeding_edge, I got this file "compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2" which contains maybe a too old version compat-wireless-2012-05-10. Should I install this version? If I install kernel 3.5.0, will I still need to install the compat-wireless drivers?
