What are the actual steps you did for testing "D-Link FR-300USB 802.11bgn"
& "rtl8192su.ko"?
Particular firmware you engage?
Particular steps?
They are outlined in the link I provided:
https://github.com/chunkeey/rtl8192su/archive/master.zip
where it states:
Building the driver
just use the Makefile:
|make|
and then
|make load|
to load the module.
-----------------------------------
Of course, to run
make load
I su'ed to root.
After that, I plugged the dongle in, and kernel
recognized it's insertion, but driver remains
oblivious of it.
