While attending to the Kernel Summit in Japan, I bought 3 Corega CG-WLUSB300N Rev. A2
devices that seemed to be based on rtl8192su:
 
	Bus 001 Device 011: ID 07aa:0043 Corega K.K.

I've compiled the staging driver included on kernel 2.6.31.1. I also tested an
out-of-tree version that I found at the Internet
(rtl8192su_linux_2.6.0002.0708.2009), with kernel 2.6.30.

I used the firmware file found at the out-of-tree driver on my tests, since I
haven't found any other firmware at the usual places.

On both cases, the firmware doesn't seem to be properly initialized:

I doubt it would be a hardware problem, as I tested it with more than one device.

Am I doing something wrong, or the driver is just broken? In the last case, is there
anything I can do to fix it?



Cheers,
Mauro
