Maybe just copying that file nf to /etc/modprobe.d/ as mentioned in the troubleshooting section on the github page would help too? You have to remove your blacklist though, of course. Hm, I don't really see the actual error message there, but the build clearly failed.īut as that driver is from 2013, it's likely that it just doesn't build with 3.16. Here's the error when compiling the driver: That's not really openSUSE-specific btw, that's how systemd does it (so it will be like this in the next Ubuntu as well probably). Makefile:584: recipe for target 'modules' failedĪ man modules-load.d showed me the way but i was way ahead of myself anyways. Makefile:24: recipe for target '_sub-make' failed Makefile:195: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed Was referring to first blacklisting rtl8192cu,rtl8192c_common and rtlwifi and then (at least in ubuntu) add 8192 to /etc/modules to load at start which obviously in OpenSuse it's just an empty modules-load.d folder, haha loving this.Ī man modules-load.d showed me the way but i was way ahead of myself anyways.here's the error when compiling the driver: Was being optimistic, i needed it after the second whole day trying this, i really appreciate your help! learning so much as i go! The problem might be that that driver you are trying to compile is not compatible with kernel 3.16 though. So please post the error messages from the compilation too. If the driver didn't compile correctly, it's of course clear that the driver files are missing.

You won't have any version problems then either. PS: all of that should be available on your installation medium, so if you still have that, just disconnect the internet connection and insert it.
#Realtek 8192cu driver vista network controller install#
Or better go into YaST->Software Management and install the "Kernel Development" pattern ("View"->"Patterns").īut the same version problem might exist then, so make sure to update the kernel ("kernel-desktop"), or manually select the 3.16.6 versions for all automatically selected packages where applicable. As there was a kernel update for 13.2 already, YaST/zypper will try to install the higher version, you'd have to select 3.16.6 manually ("Versions" tab in YaST, appending the version for zypper, or just update the kernel to the latest version) You'd probably need kernel-desktop-devel, matching your kernel version, i.e. No, the message means that you don't have the kernel headers installed. Under /pvaret there's no other version as far as i can tell, do i have a way out of this? Your kernel headers for kernel 3.16.6-2-desktop cannot be found at Sudo dkms install 8192cu/1.9root's password: Great Info! After reinstalling (just to be sure) and switching to NetworkManager it started again but as it happened with Ubuntu it works only for a few seconds after each reboot, then the signal seems to die off and doesn't connect anymore.Īny way i can get that fix i've mentioned in my original post in OpenSuse? as i now i'm able to execute it? Then you should be able to connect using your desktop's means. So I would recommend to go into YaST->Network Devices->Network Settings->Global Options, and make sure this is set to NetworkManager, not ifup or Wicked. In this case the desktop's network applet does _not_ work, those are only frontends for NetworkManager. Normally the first is default, if you use this you have to configure your connection in YaST. the traditional method (ifup), in 13.2 replaced by Wicked Service In openSUSE there are two ways to manage/configure your network connections: So, why do you think it is not working? How are you trying to establish a connection?Īnd which openSUSE version are you actually using? I have a TP-LINK TL-WN822N which shows as Realtek 8192cu, during the installation process it was working and was able to log in to the network but after a reboot everything was gone.Īctually the RTL8192cu should be supported:Īnd if it worked during the installation process, it should work in the installed system, too.
