Hello I'm new in the world of Linux, I need a driver for my wifi adapter, I tried several git repos but no one worked. I am using kernel 5.0.0 and Ubuntu 18.04.1. Please help me.

I tried the repo: https://github.com/luckynzm/tlwn8200nddriver and this threw me: 

ERROR (dkms apport): binary package for rtl8192eu: 1.0 not found
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.0.0-23-generic (x86_64)

on sudo dkms install rtl8192eu/1.0

Also: https://github.com/Mange/rtl8192eu-linux-driver then:

ERROR (dkms apport): binary package for rtl8192eu: 1.0 not found
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.0.0-23-generic (x86_64)

And also on sudo dkms install rtl8192eu/1.0;

At the end tried this: https://github.com/smlinux/rtl8723de/issues/5#issuecomment-410850664 And this didn't have any error but I think this was not my driver. :(

    You tagged 14.04? but mentioned 18.04.1? (your kernel implies an outdated 18.04.3 too) Please clarify, and what chipset is used? ie. device recognition in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide – guiverc Jan 17 '20 at 01:06

    Add inxi -SMN -! 31 -y 80 output. Realtek RTL8192cu chipset? lsmod | grep rtl8? This might help, already tried the official? – Pablo Bianchi Jan 17 '20 at 01:28
  • @guiverc I read the docs. But I didn't find something useful. @PabloBianchi Ok I tried inxi -SMN -! 31 -y 80 and the output is: Network: Card: Intel 82566DM-2 Gigabit Network Connection driver: e1000e – kevin feng feng Jan 17 '20 at 02:53

    82566DM-2 is an ethernet NIC and needs cables to work (it's not wireless). Providing output from commands such as lshw or lspci commands in link I provided (Device Recognition & Operation step 1) allow you to search online for clues, or when pasted into your question allow us to see what you've got & help. Replies of additional details should not be placed in comments – guiverc Jan 17 '20 at 03:06
  • Please edit your question to show the result of the terminal commands: lsusb and also: sudo dkms status. Welcome to Ask Ubuntu. – chili555 Jan 17 '20 at 14:23

  • @chili555 already tried, didn't work, its git repos are published in this question already. :( – kevin feng feng Jan 18 '20 at 19:22
  • "ERROR (dkms apport): binary package for rtl8192eu: 1.0 not found" Please run the terminal command: history and tell us the three commands just before this. I suspect that one of them is faulty. – chili555 Jan 18 '20 at 20:47
  • 186 sudo dkms add . 187 sudo dkms install rtl8192eu/1.0 ````` just like the repo readme said @chili555 – kevin feng feng Jan 19 '20 at 15:59
  • Is there any clue in the make.log found in /var/log/dkms? Please paste it here and give us the link: http://paste.ubuntu.com – chili555 Jan 19 '20 at 18:31
