Hi
I suspect the reason why we have two drivers is that Realtek chooses to
develop out of tree drivers instead of collaborating with the kernel
developers to get proper in kernel drivers. I do not see the logic in
their doing this, it does the reputation of their company no good and it
is more trouble for everyone involved.
This is the subject of bug:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16594
I hope that there are people who know how to do these things who will
garner any information they need from the working Realtek driver to make
the kernel RTL8192E driver work properly.
Regards
John
