regarding to:
0bda:819a RTL8188CUS WLAN doesn't work out of the box in downstream
and upstreamkernel
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1102179

xose.vazquez@gmail.com wanted me to test in different system the
following commands:

# sudo su
# modprobe -v rtl8192cu
# echo "0bda 819a" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rtl8192cu/new_id
(# dmesg (log output))

then X crashes with the echo command and I see the dmesg output
I can't get back to X and I'm not able to reach any tty-shell.

Tested with 64bit-isos Ubuntu 12.04 / 12.10 / Fedora 17 / Fedora
18beta and upstream kernel linux-image-3.8.0-030800rc4-generic
