Ok, I'm giving the kernel 3.19 a try. Here is a list of the steps I'm
following according to the information gathered in this thread. Please
tell me if I'm missing something:
  - Install the kernel 3.19 from
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.19-rc7-vivid/
  - Clone the GIT repository: git clone
https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git
  - Compile and install the drivers: make && sudo make install
  - Blacklist the r8192ee module

Any remarks?

Thanks.
