Seeing as nobody has tried to replace the firmware files in /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/ so far, I thought I would give it a try. For me replacing rtl8192cfw.bin with rtl8192cfwU_B.bin from the realtek homepage worked with Ubuntu 12.04 as well as Fedora 17. I, however, am not sure if selecting the wrong firmware file can damage your hardware. So if you do this it is at your own risk.
