No Wifi on compaq presario

Hello, everybody. I'm using slitaz on my old p4 desktop and everything's working fine. then i decided to test it on my windows laptop via livecd using 4.0 version, but it cant detect any wireless, if i'm not mistaken, the WLAN controller is Realtek RTL8191SEvA, i attach the output from lspci -vnn and lsmod

Many thanks before, sorry for my bad english

Install firmware:

[c]# tazpkg install firmware-rtlwifi-20130610.tazpkg[/c]

Load driver:

[c]# modprobe rtl8192se[/c]

@mojo,

I didn't think rtlwifi firmwares of cooking were usable with SliTaz 4.0.

Can I use them with 3.0 too?

@ceel

Firmware is not compiled and installs to /lib/firmware in all distros.

Firmware from cooking repo works in any version of slitaz.

The source for slitaz firmware was an arch linux tarball which is sourced from the linux-kernel firmware tree.
