I'm running alpha 5 with full updated xbmc.
The Tenda Wireless-N150 USB Network Adapter I had been using on my RPi decided to die. I bought a SANOXYTM USB 802.11n 150m Mini Wireless Lan Adapter to replace it. It has a realtek RTL8192SE chipset.
Initially when I connected it dmesg reported that it loaded the rt2800usb module and then threw an error message saying that the chipset was wrong.
I found and installed a firmware-realtek package which had the drivers for the 8192se. Rebooted and tried again, same deal.
I've found the source for the drivers on the realtek site:

I installed build-essentials via apt-get and attempted to complete a make. I'm got the following error:
I googled around and learned that this happens when you don't have the linux-headers package installed. I followed the common advice of doing a:
But it reports that there is no such package linux-headers-3.6.11.
I did an apt-cache search for linux-headers and found linux-headers-3.6-trunk-rpi and tried installing that, but that obviously creates a new directory in the /lib/modules. I tried making symlinks in /lib/modules/3.6.11+/ pointing /build and /source to the matching directories in /lib/modules/3.6-trunk-rpi/ directory but that just results in:
Getting kind of lost down this rabbit hole, any tips would be greatly appreciated.
