| xu-irc73w | hello everyone. I'm sorry to bother you, but I am having trouble getting my Realtek wifi to work. | 11:42 |
| xu-irc73w | I know there are a lot of posts about this, but the instructions are not working for me. | 11:42 |
| xu-irc73w | Just wondering if anyone can help me out. | 11:42 |
| xu-irc73w | The problem is the exact same problem as this post, but the solution is not working for me: | 11:42 |
| xu-irc73w | https://askubuntu.com/questions/1079377/how-do-i-install-drivers-for-realtek-rtl8812bu | 11:42 |
| xu-irc73w | My computer fails on this command: | 11:43 |
| xu-irc73w | https://askubuntu.com/questions/1079377/how-do-i-install-drivers-for-realtek-rtl8812bu | 11:43 |
| xu-irc73w | whoops, not that | 11:43 |
| xu-irc73w | sudo dkms build -m rtl88x2bu -v ${VER} | 11:43 |
| diogenes_ | xu-irc73w, has this wifi card ever worked under linux before? | 11:45 |
| xu-irc73w | apparently it has, because the model number matches the model number on the referenced github: | 11:46 |
| xu-irc73w | https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2BU_WiFi_linux_v5.2.4.4_26334.20180126_COEX20171012-5044 | 11:47 |
| xu-irc73w | rtl88x2bu | 11:47 |
| diogenes_ | xu-irc73w, i mean has it ever worked for you under linux on this very machine. | 11:47 |
| xu-irc73w | in my case, RTL8812BU | 11:47 |
| xu-irc73w | no, that's the problem. | 11:47 |
| xu-irc73w | i want it to work on this machine. | 11:47 |
| xu-irc73w | i know the unit works because it works on the same machine in Windows. | 11:47 |
| diogenes_ | what OS did you have prio to Xubuntu? | 11:47 |
| xu-irc73w | GalliumOS | 11:48 |
| xu-irc73w | but not on this hardware. | 11:48 |
| diogenes_ | i've never heard of Gallium OS. | 11:48 |
| xu-irc73w | that's alright | 11:48 |
| xu-irc73w | https://galliumos.org/ | 11:48 |
| xu-irc73w | it's a debian-based linux | 11:49 |
| diogenes_ | so are you running Xubuntu or Gallium right now? | 11:49 |
| xu-irc73w | I am on the Xubuntu computer I am trying to get my wifi working on | 11:49 |
| xu-irc73w | i've made a temporary hardwire connection until i can fix my wifi | 11:49 |
| diogenes_ | xu-irc73w, run in a terminal: lscpi -nnk | grep Net -A3 | nc termbin.com 9999 | 11:50 |
| diogenes_ | you gonna get an url that you have to paste here in the chat. | 11:51 |
| xu-irc73w | sorry, but it's not working: | 11:52 |
| xu-irc73w | lscpi -nnk | 11:52 |
| xu-irc73w | whoops, hold on | 11:52 |
| xu-irc73w | lscpi -nnk | grep Net -A3 | nc termbin.com 9999Command 'lscpi' not found, did you mean: command 'lspci' from deb pciutils (1:3.6.4-1) command 'lscp' from deb nilfs-tools (2.2.8-1) command 'lscpu' from deb util-linux (2.34-0.1ubuntu9.1)Try: sudo apt install <deb name> | 11:53 |
| xu-irc73w | keep in mind, the wifi is not pci | 11:53 |
| xu-irc73w | the wifi is connected via usb | 11:53 |
| diogenes_ | yep sorry lspci | 11:53 |
| xu-irc73w | the command does not produce output | 12:02 |
| xu-irc73w | lspci -nnk | grep Net -A3 | nc termbin.com 9999 | 12:02 |
| xu-irc73w | just back to the command prompt. no error. | 12:02 |
| diogenes_ | xu-irc73w, so it's not a build-in module. | 12:03 |
| xu-irc73w | right. it's a USB module. | 12:04 |
| unixy | helllo | 13:07 |
| diogenes_ | hello | 13:09 |
| unixy | so.... | 13:15 |
