Problem of WIFI RTL8191SE Wireless LAN 802.11n PCI-E NIC

Hello,
I’ve installed OpenSuse 11.3 these days and it works without problems except my WIFI. I’ve tried to configure it with YAST but … nothing, although I’ve installed the driver that I found on : Realtek.

I give some results of commands :
==========================> iwconfig :

lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

br0 no wireless extensions.

I see that my network controller is recognized :

But it doesn’t work at all. What should I do please?

So, if the driver really took, you reboot and then start YaST / Network Devices / Network Settings. You should list both your wireless and hardwired connection. If no wireless, then the driver did not take. I found the following on installing this driver.

Thank You,

Your posted link is to the driver for a USB, not PCI, device. The correct driver
is likely
http://218.210.127.131/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=48&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#RTL8191SE-VA2.

Please post the output of ‘/sbin/lspci -nnk’.

Thank you for you reply. I didn’t mean the first driver but the second, the right one, sorry.

The driver on the Web site should work, but it does need firmware. Did you
install it?

You should look at the output of ‘dmesg | grep firmware’.

Yes I’ve installed the driver rtl8192se and even rtl8192-firmware. what do you think?

There is no driver in place going by this:

02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8191SEvB Wireless LAN Controller [10ec:8172] (rev 10)
        Subsystem: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device [10ec:8182]

Did you check Larry’s suggestion?

dmesg | grep firmware

Also

modprobe rtl8191

Nothing is happened by useing the first command!!

linux-s0jw:/home/hafen # dmesg | grep firmware
linux-s0jw:/home/hafen # modprobe rtl8191
FATAL: Module rtl8191 not found.

Open a terminal
as su -

zypper in kernel-firmware

or is it already installed

It’s done. So, what should I do please?

Try again

modprobe rtl8191

you may need to reboot

The same result even fater reboot.

linux-s0jw:/home/hafen # modprobe rtl8191
FATAL: Module rtl8191 not found.

The module name is r8192se_pci, not rtl8191. If you did the “sudo make install”,
then you should see what comes out when you enter “lsmod | grep 819”

Please be patient and wait for @lwfinger
I’m not that familiar with this driver and it’s installation. He on the other hand is a genius.

Thank you very much @caf4926.

@lwfinger, I’ve got that :

linux-s0jw:/home/hafen # modprobe r8192se_pci
FATAL: Error inserting r8192se_pci (/lib/modules/2.6.34.7-0.5-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/r8192se_pci.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

What do you ask me? please

I’m so tired, it’s 6:45 am, I didn’t sleep yet since yesterday because this problem of wireless. So, I’ll take a rest and I hope that I’ll connect with Wifi after some hours. Thank you very much lwfinger, I’ll try on the one hand to find a solution and on the other hand I’ll be waiting for your help too. Thank you a lot …

First, I know these things can be very unnerving, but try not to get so involved
as to lose sleep. Second, it was not necessary to send me a private message. I
do no private debugging. If I have any suggestions, I make them publicly. Third,
our time zones must be quite different - I an UTC -8, thus there will be times
that I don’t answer promptly, but once I undertake helping someone, I will
continue, unless my requests for information are ignored. Then I just ignore the
thread! As you have not committed that infraction, I’m still helping.

In the previous message, you reported

“> linux-s0jw:/home/hafen # modprobe r8192se_pci

What did the output of ‘dmesg’ say? It will help if I know what symbol(s) are
unknown. My suspicion is that you need to use the command


sudo /sbin/depmod -a

The above command will establish the dependencies among modules and allow the
dependent ones such as mac80211, etc. to be autoloaded. Realtek must have
omitted it from the “make install” steps.

I’m so sorry about the private message, I didn’t pay attention, excuse me and Thank you a lot.

Yes - only the r8192se_pci messages were needed. ‘dmesg | grep r8192’ will get them.

It didn’t print anything, but it made internal changes that should fix the
“unknown symbol” errors above. Try the modprobe statement again, or reboot.

Nothing. Even on YAST ===> Network Settings, there’re 2 lines :

  1. Attansic Ethernet controller
    MAC : ------------------
    BusID : ----------------

Device Name: eth0
Started automatically on cable connection
IP address: 0.0.0.0/32

  1. Network Bridge DHCP
    Device Name: br0
    Started automatically at boot
    IP address assigned using DHCP

My chipset rtl8192 isn’t figured in the list.
