I've successfully compiled and installed the drivers as following:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential git
git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu
cd rtl8188eu
make all
sudo make install
sudo insmod 8188eu.ko
However, when I try to load it I get this error:
sudo wpa_supplicant -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -i wlx5ca6e641663d
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
nl80211: Could not configure driver mode
nl80211: deinit ifname=wlx5ca6e641663d disabled_11b_rates=0
wlx5ca6e641663d: Failed to initialize driver interface
My /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf file looks fine:
network={
ssid="VVV"
#psk="password"
psk=8d10e65f37d67d5f507fffabaa94dcb09855739486e4462021ac3d49b40a7e1b
}
What else should I try?
Thanks!
