How to manually install your rtl8188ce driver :
this tutorial is meant for users using 10.10 and up (im using 10.10)
download the top linux driver from this site (Linux driver for kernel 2.6.24 (and later, up to 3.2.x))
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...true#RTL8188CE
extract this to your desktop
open terminal
type: sudo su
then: cd /path/to/file
then: make install
should look something like this:
daniel@daniel-HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:~$ sudo su
[sudo] password for daniel:
root@daniel-HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:/home/daniel# cd /home/daniel/Desktop/rtl_92ce_92se_92de_linux_mac80211_0005.1230.2011
root@daniel-HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:/home/daniel/Desktop/rtl_92ce_92se_92de_linux_mac80211_0005.1230.2011# make install
this was my out put:
