You need to install the package kernel-firmware-nonfree thats the one
who haves the firmawsre files for Realtek 8192 drivers.
But with me that didnt solve the case completly, since i had some
keyboard/mouse behaviour caused by it, so i entered Realtek website
and downloaded and build the latest drivers avaialble.

You can also copy the firmaware files from the mandriva package
kernel-firmware-extra, with me they worked great.
