Did you install linux-headers-generic and build-essential first?

Hi Chili555,

i think yes

Code:

---

sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic linux-headers-`uname -r`
[sudo] password for xxx:
Paketlisten werden gelesen... Fertig
Abhängigkeitsbaum wird aufgebaut     
Statusinformationen werden eingelesen... Fertig
build-essential ist schon die neueste Version.
linux-headers-3.2.0-36-generic-pae ist schon die neueste Version.
linux-headers-generic ist schon die neueste Version.
Die folgenden Pakete wurden automatisch installiert und werden nicht mehr benötigt:
  linux-headers-3.2.0-29 linux-headers-3.2.0-29-generic-pae
Verwenden Sie »apt-get autoremove«, um sie zu entfernen.
0 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 0 nicht aktualisiert.

---

the text says that build-essentialand and linux-headers-generic are the newest....

i dont know whats going wrong :/

rtl_92ce_92se_92de_8723ae_linux_mac80211_0006.0514 .2012. List the contents of the directory:

Code:

---

ls

It ought to look like:

When you are in the correct directory and ls shows the Makefile, then you are all ready to proceed.

the problem is resolved :D

thanks for your help, love ubuntu :)

Thank you Chili !!!
This thread fixed my problem.

Hi all, noob to Ubunto here... Used to be in OS/390 & z/OS in a previous life:). Little to no dealings with Unix:(

I am trying to install the RTL8723 driver on a new Toshiba laptop that reports having this wifi unit.
I have followed this thread and read all the various links to other threads, but keep coming upwith the same problem.
From the term log;

Any help on how to solve this would be really appreciated!!
Please be gentle!

Cheers,

@GentleJohn--

Here is a slightly newer version that avoids the well-known IEEE80211_HW_BEACON_FILTER issue. The link is my own Dropbox. I just ran 'make' and it succeeds, albeit with a few warnings.

It looks like you are doing well so far. Keep up the good work.
