| marcoagpinto | The cola demon! | 08:20 |
| daftykins | ah someone was just asking where the demon was... | 08:53 |
| marcoagpinto | ohhhh | 08:53 |
| marcoagpinto | daftykins: Who? | 08:53 |
| daftykins | i can't reveal that information! | 08:55 |
| sorcerer | oO | 09:03 |
| lotuspsychje | lol | 09:03 |
| marcoagpinto | ahhhh | 09:43 |
| marcoagpinto | I have returned with some cola | 09:44 |
| marcoagpinto | :) | 09:44 |
| marcoagpinto | I went to the store | 09:44 |
| akemhp | I received my BrosTrend Wifi adapter, special Linux...But it doesn't work out of the box. It is recognised as a new high speed USB device with few info, but there is no new Wifi interface create when i plug it. | 19:45 |
| oerheks | in Gnome3, one needs to turn on the adapter first.. | 19:46 |
| oerheks | how about updates, any available? | 19:46 |
| akemhp | oerheks, It should work out of the box even on 18.04 or older. It was specified on the article i read and also on the amazon page, wait a sec. | 19:55 |
| akem | http://imgur.com/gallery/rhcvs0s | 19:57 |
| oerheks | what does lsusb say? 8 digit hex number, to identify chipset | 19:57 |
| oerheks | and updates,?? | 19:57 |
| akemhp | It's on the last screen i posted: 0bda:b812 it's identified as a Realtek chip. | 19:58 |
| akemhp | Actually this is a Ubuntu 18.04 but it has a more recent kernel with default options. 5.5.9, i will try it on my other Ubuntu/LUbuntu to see if it creates the WIFI interface automaticly when i plug it. | 20:00 |
| oerheks | use the stock kernel please, else it is no use to find out what is wrong | 20:02 |
| akemhp | On my regular 18.04 with stock kernel it is the same, i just tested it. | 20:02 |

| oerheks | RTL8812BU , build the driver from git https://askubuntu.com/questions/1079377/how-do-i-install-drivers-for-realtek-rtl8812bu | 20:04 |
| oerheks | so your claim it works OOTB is false | 20:04 |
| oerheks | sorry :-P | 20:04 |
| akemhp | oerheks, I see, that's what they said on the article! and even on the amazon page they put some Ubuntu logo IIRC! buyers would expect it to be plug n play on Linux. But it is not so important, if i can build the drivers it will be fine. Thanks btw. | 20:08 |
| oerheks | one brand i know off, is intel, works fine OOTB | 20:10 |
| akemhp | They provide a tiny CD with drivers for all platform in fact. And one with the manual. | 20:15 |
| oerheks | use that url, with dkms, so it gets rebuild with any new kernel | 20:15 |
| Bashing-om | UWN648 is on the streets: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue648 :D | 20:25 |
| akemhp | oerheks, It worked with the last unified repository for 88X2 :) Thanks. | 21:22 |
| jeremy31 | Might actually need https://askubuntu.com/a/1273142/300665 | 21:32 |
| jeremy31 | There are a few realtek USB wifi devices supported by the kernel but more are still in staging | 21:34 |
| oerheks | that would be the same as the url i gave, right? | 21:35 |
| jeremy31 | oerheks: actually a newer question than that | 21:36 |
| jeremy31 | The guy keeps changing version numbers with an entire new github rather than adding changes to an older one | 21:38 |
| jeremy31 | Sounds like something I would do | 21:39 |
| oerheks | oh oke, noted. | 21:40 |
| akem | I won't trust web articles anymore when it comes to Linux hardware :P | 21:44 |
| jeremy31 | akem: If you see an answer on wifi by chilli555, it worked at some time | 21:44 |

| jeremy31 | It might be something wildmanne39 would be interested in, both of you show a certain professionalism | 23:42 |
| sonicwind | who was on it before? | 23:44 |
| jeremy31 | chilli555 would be a choice but I think he wants to travel more and enjoy his retirement | 23:45 |
