The problem seemed to be my lack of knowledge on how to load third party
modules.
With more googling I found out that I only needed to run ""depmod -a" after the
make install (this command should be included in the install target in the
Makefile). After that I was able to successfully load the module with
"modeprobe wl" and now the card WORKS!!
I don't see my network in the 5gh frequency, so I guess the module only
supports the 2.4gh frequencies. Nevertheless, It's great to have the
card working. I will use it in the next days and report any problems
here.
What works: 2.4gh networks
What does not work yet: 5gh networks and bluetooth (which is provided by the
same card)
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
