(Get the code!)
Thanks for the hint -I'll have a look when I can spend more time on this and report back here.
At the moment the situation for this wifi driver in Ubuntu 12.04 is as follows:
Install Ubuntu 12.04 without updates to end up on kernel 3.2 (for the Atom N2600 screen driver) gets you to kernel 3.2.0.29 with working wifi.
Upgrading the installation gets you to 3.2.0.54 where wifi is still broken - not so good for an LTS version.
I found a non official DKMS package for the Realtek 0007.0809.2012 driver, which performs really bad (slow and grinding to a hold after a few minutes). When that happens, all wifi on the same access point nearly stops working (tested with 2 different makes access point and with 2 different wifi cards)
Installing the Realtek 0012.0207.2013 driver is better, but still shows that slowing down to hold after a while syndrome. The impact on the other devices seems to be a lot less, but up to now I didn't manage to compile a DKMS-version from it.
