Linux support notes

• ASUS USB-N10 Nano on OpenSuse 13.1 Linux on David Lantham's blog

A user notes that disabling power saving, suggested by the README of rtl8192cu-fixes)

Sometimes Network Manager also sets a device in a power-saving mode where it doesn't use enough power to connect. You can fix it by editing `/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf` and setting `wifi.powersave` to 2. And then reboot.

However, rtl8192cu-fixes currently reccomends at this point to abandon rtl8192cu completely for rtl8xxxu.
