I now see the "Wireless Networks" subheading in the Network Manager icon but I don't see any available networks. I am using a Ubuntu as dual boot. Under Windows the network is visible (plus a couple other weaker networks from the neighbors).
At the last step of your instructions (thanks for those) I got the following text:
Code:
david@david-desktop:~/Desktop/rtl8192se_linux_2.6.0014.0115.2010$ iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.

Below I also included the whole terminal session in case it is needed.
Code:
