Cannot Recover USB wireless connectivity after kernel update

[Kariotaki]

Hello,

I'm a newbie to Linux and I am having issues with my wireless USB network adapter (Mini USB 2.0 / 1.1 Wireless WiFi N LAN Adapter IEEE 802.11n 802.11g 802.11b - 943MiUSBMiF320). I am running Ubuntu 12.04

There was initially an issue with the driver.

I managed to find a script that will compile and install the correct driver.

I saved it as mwdinstall.sh and originally ran it using sudo bash mwdinstall.sh. I was told that it needs to be reinstalled after any kernel upgrade.

The kernel has now updated, but for some reason I cannot perform the command.
When I tried, I was told to rename the same file cat mwdinstall.sh.

If I click on the icon (Gnome Desktop), I get an option that allows me to run in the terminal. It works, however I must run it each time I restart or I lose connectivity. This was not the case when I first got it to work.

I am guessing this is do to the fact that I cannot run the 'sudo bash' command in the terminal. I try running it with cd [name of directory]. sudo bash mwdinstall.sh. It runs but will not register and I must repeat the process on each reboot.

Can anyone please advise

I surpose your working from this http://www.solwiseforum.co.uk/showth...606N-and-Linux

to help track things down could you post the output of

uname -a

and

ls -l

in the directory where you have unpacked the downloaded "driver"

If you have the origonal zip file it may pay to extract it again into a new directory.

Hi! Thanks for responding.
You are 100% correct about the link.

Here is output of the directory with the original "driver," as soon as I turned on the pc and did not have wireless connectivity:

xristaras@xristaras-linux:~$ '/home/xristaras/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver'
bash: /home/xristaras/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver: Is a directory
xristaras@xristaras-linux:~$ cd '/home/xristaras/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver'

OK you should already have build essential installed, if your not sure you can do a

sudo apt-get install build-essential

this will install all the stuff you need to build the module. If its already installed it wont harm to run it again.

Next change directory to the extracted package

cd /home/xristaras/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver/RTL8188C_8192C_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20121105

Check that we have all the files we need in that directory

ls-lha

You should see install.sh and it should be green, if not then make it executable

chmod +x ./install.sh

Your

mwdinstall.sh

should also be in the same directory and it should be green too. If you have renamed it then it will be easier to rename it back to what it was to make life easier on the next kernel update

You may have to

chmod +x ./mwdinstall.sh

almost there do a

ls -lha

to check the

mwdinstall.sh

and

install.sh

are executable

if all is good then

sudo bash mwdinstall.sh

As a side note you seem to be confused about the

cat

command you can read about it here http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-u...-shell-script/

On the next kernel update you should be able to just do

sudo bash /home/xristaras/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver/RTL8188C_8192C_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20121105/mwdinstall.sh

Thanks for the response.
Am I doing something wrong?

xristaras@xristaras-linux:~$ cd /home/xristaras/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver/RTL8188C_8192C_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20121105
xristaras@xristaras-linux:~/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver/RTL8188C_8192C_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20121105$ ls-lha
ls-lha: command not found
xristaras@xristaras-linux:~/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver/RTL8188C_8192C_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20121105$

[sully101]

there should be a space between ls and -lha
"ls" means list the files in the directory and the "-lha" means that "ls" will output in an [l]ong[h]umanly readable format [a]ll the files even hidden ones.
Good luck try again

Sorry, got it now. I followed the directions. The script runs, however, I must repeat the process each time I reboot. The computer does not "remember" and I do not have connectivity following a reboot/shutdown. Could it be that the new kernel is messing up the script? Here is what I get:

xristaras@xristaras-linux:~$ cd '/home/xristaras/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver/RTL8188C_8192C_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20121105'
xristaras@xristaras-linux:~/MostUpdatedRealTekDriver/RTL8188C_8192C_USB_linux_v3.4.4_4749.20121105$ sudo bash mwdinstall.sh
[sudo] password for xristaras:


This script (mwdinstall.sh) is to
Install a Solwise NET-WL-UMD-606N mini wireless dongle on Ubuntu 12.04 or 12.10
Before use please list it (cat mwdinstall.sh) and read the commented (#...) lines.
Have you done so and are now in the directory with the driver package etc.? (y/n): y
Thank you


The script is provided in the hope that it will be helpful, but no liability for any consequenses of use can be accepted. You have been warned. Feel free to adapt and/or share it but please do not make any charge to others for it.


Do you understand and accept the above? (y/n): y
You agreed


For information: the running kernel is version 3.2.0-38
The real work now starts. It will take a while.
When asked to select the card, enter the digit 1
Do you want to continue? (y/n): y
You agreed


We will now blacklist a problematic driver that the OS tries to use
This will not take immediate effect - needs e.g. a reboot


We will now disable it by name change as it sometimes seems to pop up again!
mv: cannot stat `/lib/modules/3.2.0-38-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu/rtl8192cu.ko': No such file or directory


About to start the main install process. Reply with 1 when asked which chipset is being used.
The process takes a while and may display a warning message or two before completing.
These are probably only warnings which the script deals with.
If more drastic fail see the notes in this script.

Above should end with an encouraging message. If so ignore any
warning messages. Plug in the dongle if necessary and try it.
Be patient waiting for the initial connection.
If it fails try rebooting.

That all looks pretty good. It seems from what you describe that the module is not getting loaded at boot and by the output of the script the old one isnt getting loaded either.

some info that may point us in the right direction can be gathered from the following commands with the usb device in.

list the currently loaded modules

lsmod

list the files that control which modules wont be loaded at boot

ls -lha /etc/modprobe.d

list usb devices connected to the system

lsusb

list the directory where the new driver should be.

ls -lha /lib/modules/3.2.0-38-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu

Now the USB

Finally, it doesn't seem to recognize the driver. Here is what I am getting:

xristaras@xristaras-linux:~$ ls -lha /lib/modules/3.2.0-38-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu
ls: cannot access /lib/modules/3.2.0-38-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu: No such file or directory

Sorry my bad you should have "/lib/modules/3.2.0-38-generic-pae/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8192cu"

The new driver should be in "/lib/modules/3.2.0-38-generic-pae/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/" well thats where I think the script put it? named "8192cu.ko"

If you do a

sudo modprobe 8192cu

you should be working.
