[Bug 1096989] Re: 10ec:8179 No wireless support for Lenovo IdeaCentre Q190 (RTL8188E)

 

Matthieu Riou, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc4

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags:
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

** Description changed:

  I'm on 12.10. The wifi adapter doesn't seem to be recognized at all:
  doesn't show up in NetworkManager, no adapter listed by iwconfig. The
  wifi card seems to be a RTL8188E (lspci -nn tells me it's 10ec:8179).
  
  I've tried to:
-    - install the Realtek driver for the RTL8188CE (seemed close enough...)
-    - install the driver from https://github.com/tianon/linux-rtlwifi-8188ce
-    - install linux-backports-modules-cw
-    - upgrade to kernel 3.7
+    - install the Realtek driver for the RTL8188CE (seemed close enough...)
+    - install the driver from https://github.com/tianon/linux-rtlwifi-8188ce
+    - install linux-backports-modules-cw
+    - upgrade to kernel 3.7
  
  None of those worked.

Title:
  10ec:8179 No wireless support for Lenovo IdeaCentre Q190 (RTL8188E)

Status in HWE Next Project:
  New
Status in The Linux Kernel:
  New
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm on 12.10. The wifi adapter doesn't seem to be recognized at all:
  doesn't show up in NetworkManager, no adapter listed by iwconfig. The
  wifi card seems to be a RTL8188E (lspci -nn tells me it's 10ec:8179).

  I've tried to:
     - install the Realtek driver for the RTL8188CE (seemed close enough...)
     - install the driver from https://github.com/tianon/linux-rtlwifi-8188ce
     - install linux-backports-modules-cw
     - upgrade to kernel 3.7

  None of those worked.
