[Bug 567016] Re: Wireless won't work on Lenovo Thinkpad T510

[elPraga]

Hello all,
I ran into the same problem on Toshiba Satellite A 500-18Q. I found a solution that works quite well. 

After installing the driver as noted here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/544485?comments=all

I created a script that changes to the directory of the driver and runs the wlan0up script provided there and I have put it in to 
the rc.local script. It works even after upgrading kernels without modifications (so far :-) )

nano /usr/local/bin/wifi_workaround.sh

#!/bin/bash

cd /the_path_to_the_driver..../rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0017.0507.2010

./wlan0up

chmod a+x  /usr/local/bin/wifi_workaround.sh

and add these lines to /etc/rc.local :

# The wifi error workaround..
/usr/local/bin/wifi_workaround.sh

I hope it helps someone..

Greetings.
