Seems to be after firmware:
rtl819xU:FirmwareRequest92S(): failed with TCR-Status: a

Try:

sudo apt-get install linux-firmware

And reboot, may help

Tried:

sudo apt-get install linux-firmware
And rebooted still not working

this fix did the trick thanks
Comment 35 for bug 492034ark Rijckenberg proposed the following answer:

http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.36/drivers/staging/rtl8192su/r8192S_firmware.c
it seems that the driver r8192s_usb looks for a firmware file
/lib/firmware/RTL8192SU/rtl8192sfw.bin
but the directory RTL8192SU doesn't exist in Maverick. We first tried copying the firmware file from RTL8192SE:
sudo cp /lib/firmware/RTL8192SE/rtl8192sfw.bin /lib/firmware/RTL8192SU/
after this the wifi stick could detect wireless networks but couldn't connect (the filesize of this firmware is 80976 bytes).
Then we tried a different version of the firmware:
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/37387612/rtl8192sfw.bin.gz
gunzip rtl8192sfw.bin.gz
sudo mv rtl8192sfw.bin /lib/firmware/RTL8192SU/
with this one the wifi stick could detect wireless networks and connect to them (the filesize of the used firmware is 68368 bytes).
