Just FYI

For testing, I have upgraded my Lenovo T440s under Ubuntu 14.10 beta 2
one week ago. The native kernel is 3.16 (today 3.16.0-21).

Since the upgrade, WiFi networks are seen. But it's fully impossible to
connect to anyone, even if it's a fully open network, ie without
authentication protocol or dialog.

And sometime, the system freezes when RTL8192ee device is on, and never
when off.

Now, I expect the release candidate (october 16), then the official
release (october 23).
