Title: Kernel Modules in TinyCore
Post by: darkapolloslx on August 27, 2011, 03:28:53 AM
Hi,

I've just got a new USB WIFI adaptor - a realtek RTL8191SU card in it. The Driver CD has a kernel module that can be made in linux to make it work. How do I go about make a kernel module work in TinyCore?

Thanks

If you search these forums on "compile kernel module" you should get plenty of help, but basically you need to use the compiletc and linux-headers-2.6.33.3-tinycore extensions and follow the instructions that come with the driver source code (usually a file named "install" or "readme")
