TP-Link WN822n v3 (RTL8192cu) on Kubuntu 15.04 Beta 2 (linux 3.19.0-10-generic)

Question

i've just installed Kubuntu 15.04 Beta 2 and i'm looking for a way to get the wifi adapter to work. The old ways of installing the driver using dkms don't seem to work anymore because of the newer kernel. Do you guys know how i can get my internet to work? The standard driver lists all available networks, but I'm not able to connect to any of them. Thanks in advance

How does it "[not] work anymore" because of the newer kernel? Please elaborate. — zhongfu, Apr 12 '15 at 09:42
I tried to install it using dkms, but failed because of the wrong kernel when executing sudo dkms install 8192cu/1.9 — Kali Norbok, Apr 12 '15 at 09:48
It appears to have failed because you do not have gcc installed. Run sudo apt-get install build-essential and try again. — zhongfu, Apr 12 '15 at 10:26
I don't have internet on that pc :( That's the reason i'm trying to install my wifi stick — Kali Norbok, Apr 12 '15 at 10:36
Thanks but maybe it will work now without doing that - I downloaded all packages and requirement manually ^^ — Kali Norbok, Apr 12 '15 at 10:43

The make.log you added in a comment shows that the dkms build is failing because gcc is missing. You can install either gcc or build-essential with sudo apt-get install gcc or sudo apt-get install build-essential.
