After you copied the module to /lib/modules/ did you run 'sudo depmod -a' ? It doesn't look like the dependency info is there. I grabbed the files from the tp-link site, and loaded it into a ubuntu vm running 14.04.3. When I look at the module I see the following dependency: snitsel@ubuntu14-32:~$ grep 8188eu /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.dep kernel/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/r8188eu.ko: extra/8188eu.ko: kernel/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko which can also be seen with modinfo: jsnitsel@ubuntu14-32:~$ modinfo 8188eu | grep depends depends: cfg80211 Did you install a new kernel recently? Because you are currently running 3.13.0-116-generic, and the module isn't in /lib/modules/3.13.0-116-generic/ . Have you tried using the r8188eu module that is provided by Ubuntu? You can see it is there in that modules.dep output. I guess maybe that one doesn't know the device ids for the TL-WN725N. It looks like it should recognize it though. Does 'dmesg | grep -i -e 8188eu -e rtl' give any output? --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
