As you saw from the copies of E-mails, my problem was in the configuration of my
kernel. The stand-alone source is available from
http://www.lwfinger.com/realtek/rtl8192e_pci_sa.tar.bz2
Download any unpack that file, cd to rtl8192e_sa and do a 'make' followed by
'sudo make install'. Your device should then work.
For anyone else reading this thread, this step is needed for Fedora and other
distros that do not enable staging drivers.
