Interesting that there is no Linux source for 8188EU ... I wonder if one will be forthcoming or if it's deliberately proprietary for Riko?

About the numbering ... my laptop has a similar wireless built in. But it's wired to PCI rather than USB.

vendor 0x10ec, product 0x8176

Under OpenBSD it identifies as Realtek 8188 CE (though is not supported). Under Linux the driver is rtl8192ce. So there's some ambiguity between 88 and 92.

Anyway, for the RikoMagic, looking at the Realtek download site I don't see 8192 EU either, nor in my Linux modules for 3.2.45 kernel.
