|
|
Anyone know how to get firmware working for USB wireless rtl8188cus chipset device? It's supported under the new 2.6.39 kernel by the rtl8192ce module but I think it requires firmware as well.
Any suggestions? |

I have already installed linux-firmware, but if I put ifconfig, wlan0 do not exist. I have Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0bda:8176 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8188CUS 802.11n WLAN Adapter |
