How to install D-Link DUB-E100 USB LAN adapter on Asus D1 laptop?
Like the title says - how do I install D-Link DUB-E100 USB LAN adapter on Asus D1 laptop?
It's an old laptop, therefore it needs a lighweight distro. Tried Xubuntu - wouldn't boot. Tried Slacko Puppy, and it took me a whole day just getting the make command to work. Now when I try to compile the drivers, I get this: make: *** /lib/modules/3.4.82/build SUBDIRS=/tmp/Linux2.6.14_REV101 modules make: *** /lib/modules/3.4.82/build: No such file or direcory. Stop. make: *** [default] Error 2 Red letters are the location of the driver. One solution I did find is way too complicated to understand, let alone do. Any other light distro whcih does this in an easy way? |
To be able to give you good advice we need to know which chipset that WLAN device is using. PLease attach it to the system, run
Code:
lsusb |
I get this:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0b95:772b Asix Electronics Corp. Other entries are related to Linux and Linz, which I guess is not related to the adapter.) |
This device should work out of the box on any distribution that has kernel version >=3.2.
Which distribution in which version are you using? |
I'm using latest Slacko, 5.7 - but I can use any distro, as long as I can get the adapter to work (preferably from shell).
