minus-square MrOzwaldMan ( @MrOzwaldMan@lemmy.ml ) OPlinkfedilink1•2 years agoI tried doing make it gives me an error. Also (if you have downloaded the file checked it out), if I do “sudo make install” even with the GCC compiler installed, it still does not work.

minus-square Helix 🧬 ( @Helix@feddit.de ) linkfedilink4•2 years agoThat’s the firmware, not the driver. The driver seems to be the Ralink rt2870sta. Even Debian, which is fairly restrictive, has a way easier process to load the firmware with the Kernel driver: https://wiki.debian.org/rt2870sta
