wireless usb rtl8188s

i tried to install again using ndigtk but it says modprobe fatal error no modprobe ndiswrapper

also i googled this problem and when i try to reinstall ndiswrapper-dkms it fails because of something to do with the new kernel..

Makes since, Look for updated package threw natty PPA,s.

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/amd64/ndiswrapper-dkms
http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/packages/show/286695

FYI what you just said tells me that the package is to old for the kernel to build headers via DKMS.

No big deal, we know natty has the updated packages we can use from natty PPA,s

Ndiswrapper's kernel stuff still doesn't work, even with natty ppa's. I guess i should try to get it working through the kernel? but i can't install the given driver. i tried making straight from it and i've tried instructions from this site http://samiux.blogspot.com/2010/05/howt ... ongle.html

also, under this new kernel i don't think the module for the driver is loading anymore, no realtek driver when i run lsmod in terminal. with old kernel driver would load but network manager wouldn't allow me to enable option to have a wireless.

in the lib/firmware rtl8192su firmware is there, which i think is what my rlt8188s chipset is supposed to use

Not a problem, find the package you need and download natty package to work with the new kernel.

Just find the deb version of the package from natty ppa,s

If it showed up before but would not activate, chances are a newer package might.

i did a quick google and i found http://blog.xff.lt/2009/12/28/canyon-cn ... ess-linux/
its for the rtl8188su but it might work.
Also on the realtek page there is a driver for it

hope this helps i never had to deal with wireless not working so good luck to you

Had a dozen or so PC,s with wireless problems and Linux my self.

Just not one with this card in question lol.

Thing is the instructions to those are kernel specific, im trying to type in my kernel instead of that but its getting errors, i'llkeep playing around and see what happens

also, wierd thing is lsusb under this new updated kernel shows that this is rtl8191S, i don't know why it's changing all of the sudden?

is your build 32 or 64 bit as i had problems with 64 bit system

was having problems DLINK DWL-132
bought a ASUS PCE-N13 802.11b/g/n Wireless PCI-Express Adapter now all good but only in 32 bit system
does wireless work in 64 bit system

[sportsallstars]

i am running 64bit, so my card might work in a 32 bit os?

maybe ill reformat soon then, especially with gnome 3 coming out - seems soo much better than current gnome.
