Installing Realtek rtl-8192ce on Ubuntu 9.4
- by dutchman79
I followed the below steps to install my rtl8192ce drivers on my Ubuntu 9.4 system. But I still got errors and nothing installed and I can't connect to the modem to get onto the Internet. Can someone please help me?
Move the file you downloaded to your home directory using your file manager or terminal
mv [destination of downloaded file] /home/[username]
Now we move to our home directory and Unzip the file using the following command or right click and select Extract here:
cd /home/user
tar xvjf rtl_92ce_92se_92de_8723ae_88ee_linux_mac80211_0012.0207.2013(1).tar.bz2
Now access the Directory which we extracted
cd rtl_92ce_92se_92de_8723ae_88ee_linux_mac80211_0012.0207.2013(1)
Next we install the necessary dependencies to compile the driver
sudo apt-get install gcc build-essential linux-headers-generic linux-headers-$(uname -r)
Now we start the compilation
make
and then
sudo make install
Execute modprobe rtl8192ce
Now If all went right your system should be running the wireless driver."
