It seems to be based on a different version. Yours is version 0015 (released on the 11th of March), while in the Ubuntu kernel version 0014 is used instead. The files under linux-2.6.32/ubuntu/rtl8192se correspond to the ones under rtl8192se-2.6.0015.0127.2010/HAL/rtl8192 in your dkms package -- which are indeed the ones compiled into the .ko according to your Makefile. If you diff the files in those directories ('-bB' to eliminate rubbish), you'll see lots of small changes.

I think what we basically want here is the ubuntu module to be rebased against version 0015 from Realtek, which appears to work reliably.
