Yesterday, I upgraded to Ubuntu Raring 13.04 and can no longer compile the latest RTL8192CU driver from the Realtek website (3.4.4_4749-2012/11/12).

Raring Ringtail runs under kernel 3.8.0-1-generic which does not appear to be compatible with the current Realtek driver.

Unfortunately, solving these compiler errors are a bit beyond my ability and any help would be appreciated.
