I hope I'm looking in the right place (http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/rtlwifi).
In kernel git I notice that the size of rtl8192cfw.bin is 13540 bytes, while the one downloaded from the Realtek website is 16192 bytes. It's a bit hard with those binary blobs and versions :-(, but as far as I can see, the 16192 bytes version works, while the 13540 bytes version doesn't, unless something else is obfuscating my test results. My card is a rtl8188ee, which seems to use this binary.
