[Bug 1239578] Re: No wireless support for Realtek RTL8192EE [10ec:818b]

 

I've been running fedora 20 with kernel 3.18.0-0.rc0.git4.1 without problem when today... 4-5 crashes :( (I only installed wget, then suspended and after that I had several freezes). Now I'm running 3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64 with driver from git (not sure which version, I tried several versions non of which compiled - I had to install newer kernel to be able to compile them and then install. It could be one of oem-wireless-rtl-92ce-92se-92de-8723ae-88ee-8723be-92ee-dkms-0017.1016.2013~sutton1 or rtlwifi_new-master, probably the first one), unfortunately the driver is at least on some networks unusable - around 80% package loss. 
during freezes I observed in xfce4-power-manager 1.2.0 that there are ~33000 wakeups on IRQ31 with command=interrupt, details=pci-msi-edge rtl_pci... Turning off bluetooth, ultrabay... didn't help. 
If I can help somehow I would be very glad, because this makes my network card pretty useless and if there won't be solution soon I will have to throw it away probably...
