Hi Barry, lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:818b Realtek Semiconductor Corp. This is RTL8192EU and it needs installing.
Yes I've been trying my best to build the RTL8192EU driver with no joy. Updated the headers etc etc, and created that "special" soft link from the empty build directory to the other build directory (similar info on the web for the CU version....). I'm going to try that again today. I really want to learn how to build it. Then post it. Also what is the best way to copy files from the cd into the BB. The new version of firmware I was using does not have the /media/BEAGLEBONE "backdoor" dir. It just had the /media dir. It was only by chance that I saw someone had uploaded RTL8192EU into git. So I cloned it. But it was missing the setup file (the file you run to choose what host you are using if you wanna build a sigle driver) which you don't really need anyway as you can "eventually" figure out what install.sh script does and you can create the make command yourself. That said - I guess the install.h script must pickup a parameter from what setup creates? Dunno. As you can see, I'm still chipping away at it. I didn't realise that all this stuff is still in the mix.... even though I bought a purchasable item :-) Funny but interesting. Paul.
