    It's very unlikely you need to build the driver from source.

    lsmod

    Alright, I stand corrected. This is one of the few you might have to compile. (Or rebuild your kernel with the staging driver enabled.)

    So let's start from the beginning. You downloaded the Linux driver from here?

    Download the driver to your home directory, open a terminal there, and do this please:

    Code:
    tar -zxvf rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0015.0127.2010.tar.gz
    cd rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0015.0127.2010/
    make
    sudo make install
    sudo modprobe r8192se_pci
    sudo depmod -a
    And then post the output of
    Code:
    iwconfig
    sudo iwlist wlan0 scan

    Did it build successfully? Or were there errors?

    Have you installed the necessary build tools? I believe this should do it
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r)
