Module Installation Problem WLAN ASUS N13 [Solved]

[fire_dragon]

Dear friends,
I am using Sabayon 10 with KDE.

The card did never work well with the provided driver support from the Sabayon distro.

I can always see the router, can connect to the router, the speed is normal for my line and equally fast like in Windows (where the card works without any problems), but after a while, the connection seems to be cutted. The network management icon in the systemtray still sais I am connected, but no data will transfer anymore. If I reboot now, or disconnect, plug out the USB dongle and plug it back in, it will connect again, and will work for some while again, either 1 minute or 2 hours, depending. One the Rigo updater wanted to load an update of about 70MB, and it did not succeed twice, at the third time it succeeded loading. On the other side I downloaded also an over 2GB linux iso from an ftp without any problems at fullspeed (my w-lan full speed which is equally fast as in Windows).

So I decided to try to update the driver. (I have to mention the I've never installed a driver before in Linux and I am not as familiar with Linux yet)

My card is a ASUS N13 USB WIFI card. The following lsusb give me this:

Code: Select all

#lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0b05:17ab ASUSTek Computer, Inc. USB-N13 802.11n Network Adapter (rev. B1) [Realtek RTL8192CU]

Because of this, I downloaded the following driver from the Reaktec website:

RTL819xC_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20120806.zip

Inside this they recommend to use the sh script, so I tried:

Code: Select all

#sh install.sh
localhost RTL8188C_8192C # sh install.sh

Now I have no clue what the script did or how can I install the driver elseway.

/usr/src/linux-3.5.0-sabayon exists (I have kernel 3.5.0)
/lib/modules/3.5.0-sabayon/build exists
/usr/src/linux-3.5.0-sabayon/scripts does not exist so /Kbuild.include also not
/usr/src/linux-3.5.0-sabayon/arch does not exist so /x86/Makefile also not

Tried to search for Kbuild.include but its nowhere on my computer

The install.sh contains the following lines:

I see that they use sudo in the script, but I use su + password to go to root before I installed the script, I never used sudo in Sabayon.

So did it install the driver? Is my system using the new driver? I have no clue how to see all this since I'm not very familar with Linux yet.

How should I proceed to make my w-lan card work properly?

Thank you.

No.
We do not really support this, but, make sure you have gcc base-gcc and sabayon-sources installed before attempting this.

[fire_dragon]

gcc was already installed.

I installed base-gcc and sabayon sources.

Exactly the same behavior after running

#sh install.sh

If Sabayon does not support this, how can I install the driver?

[fire_dragon]

I disabled the kernel included driver rtl8192cu in the file #/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf

I did this because according to several forum entries for other distributions, the kernel internal driver is buggy and the developers driver is supposed to be stable.

The command #./make did not work.

I tried to install the driver manually with the command
#make

Code: Select all

localhost ~/Downloads/RTL $ make
make ARCH=x86_64 CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/3.5.0-sabayon/build M=/home/ebo/Downloads/RTL  modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-3.5.0-sabayon'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-3.5.0-sabayon'
make: *** [modules] Error 2
localhost ~/Downloads/RTL $

So it is the same output like the script gave me.

How come some commands are modified? Is there an overview about this modified commands?

I think the makefile. is problematic and needs to be adjusted to Sabayon.

Here is the makefile:

No clue how to proceed now, the makefile. looks quite complex to me.

Maybe I can use an already adjusted version of a driver makefile suitable for Sabayon if availible?

[fire_dragon]

If I use the command:

Code: Select all

#make install

It will show the following message:

Code: Select all

install -p -m 644 8192cu.ko  /lib/modules/3.5.0-sabayon/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/
install: cannot stat ‘8192cu.ko’: No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1

The directory /lib/modules/3.5.0-sabayon/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ exists.

Under /lib/modules/3.5.0-sabayon/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu/ is the file rtl8192cu.ko

[fire_dragon]

I updated the kernel to 3.6.0-rc1 using the kernel-switcher, hope the kernel driver will work better.

Is after a kernel update the new driver automatically used?

[fire_dragon]

Unfortunately the kernel update did not change the problem.

[fire_dragon]

It seems that it is a general make modules_install problem, the error is similar if I try to install another module. I suspect I am doing something wrong in general here and it is not driver related. Should I start a new thread which is non wireless/network connected in a different part of this forum?

[fire_dragon]

Thread continues here:

https://forum.sabayon.org/viewtopic.php?f=86&t=28331&p=154767#p154767

Solving steps were:

Install the sources for my current kernel:

Code: Select all

equo install sabayon-sources-3.6-r1

Then installed the module:

Code: Select all

make modules

then

Code: Select all

make modules install

and blacklisted the kernel module

Thanks to everybody who helped.
