["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Christian Berg, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been
any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, 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

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

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.

Title:
  RTL8187SE driver lacks Multicast Support

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Expired
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I greatfuly recognized that Ubuntu Jaunty has support vor Realteks
  RTL8102 Chipset, found in many Netbooks based on MSI's U100.

  unfourtunley the Driver is in an unofficial - internal - Beta Stage.
  (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/246141)

  One Issue that really troubles me is lacking support for Unicast. This renders everything thats based on MDNS useless.
  Like: Gnome-Networkshare, Vino, Hotssh, Rythmbox Musicsharing, Avahi-Tools, and so on....

  Symthoms: 
  1.) You can ping an other Network.Computer and you also can make use of his services (like webdav), but avahi-discover, can not find them.
  2.) Other Computers can not find you with avahi-discover, but can make use of you services if they know your IP and TCP-Port.
  3.) Broadcast ping -b 255.255.255.255 does not work for me, but im not sure about this.

  
  I don't know if anything like a Realtek-Bugtracker exists, to report the Bug to Realtek. So i belive that it is a good idea to have a Bugreport in Launchpad, so that other Users with this Issue have some Information on it.
