<PRE>'Twas brillig, and simple w8 at 01/05/12 14:38 did gyre and gimble:
&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; Anyway, checking commit logs between upstream 3.3.1 and 3.3.3
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; shows one commit that specifically touches the module you use...
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; So can you try kernel-3.3.4-1.1.mga2 from:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; <A HREF="http://tmb.mine.nu/Mageia/Cauldron/bugs/3.3.4-rtlwifi-revert/">http://tmb.mine.nu/Mageia/Cauldron/bugs/3.3.4-rtlwifi-revert/</A>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; <A HREF="http://tmb2.mine.nu/Mageia/Cauldron/bugs/3.3.4-rtlwifi-revert/">http://tmb2.mine.nu/Mageia/Cauldron/bugs/3.3.4-rtlwifi-revert/</A>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; If that works, you can ping upstream that:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; <A HREF="http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=commit;h=eb641120479de7ee703fabb5e6ee0ec7947474ba">http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=commit;h=eb641120479de7ee703fabb5e6ee0ec7947474ba</A>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &gt; broke your wireless.
</I>&gt;<i> In fact with this kernel the machine is able to detect the same wifi
</I>&gt;<i> networks that sued to detect with kernel-3.3.1...
</I>
Well that means that the commit listed above is problematic.

You should tell the upstream folks about this as Thomas stated. Please
confirm when you've done this so the issue can be tracked accordingly.
