Re: [Bug 1096989] Re: 10ec:8179 No wireless support for Lenovo IdeaCentre Q190 (RTL8188E)

 

Hello,

I would *recommend installing saucy.

Concerning raring, *I think that the crucial test would be if someone will
do a test
if the wifi device could be found, after a package update on raring with,
aftera  manually install the kernel v3.10 and assure that
the file /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/rtl8188efw.bin exists.

**Concerning quantal or precise,
Even if you will install the latest kernel, and install manually the
rtl8188efw.bin file the device won't be listed.

**-----------------------------------
I have manually downloaded and installed the packages from this site
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/

I can confirm the functionality of RTL8188EE since the kernel 3.10 released
on 30-Jun-2013
on http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline

It still works with the newer kernels, I have tested `till v3.11-rc5-saucy.
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11-rc5-saucy/

RTL8188EE was ment to be added in the linux kernel whith the version 3.10
stable
It did not work in the prior versions like

[DIR]    v3.10-rc1-saucy/    13-May-2013 09:27     -
[DIR]    v3.10-rc2-saucy/    20-May-2013 22:52     -
[DIR]    v3.10-rc3-saucy/    26-May-2013 23:51     -
[DIR]    v3.10-rc4-saucy/    02-Jun-2013 08:59     -
[DIR]    v3.10-rc5-saucy/    09-Jun-2013 01:52     -
[DIR]    v3.10-rc6-saucy/    15-Jun-2013 22:51     -
[DIR]    v3.10-rc7-saucy/    22-Jun-2013 21:51     -


The following kernels were tested and I can confirm that RTL8188EE is
functional:

-
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.10
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.10.1
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.10.2
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.10.3
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.10.4
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.10.5
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.10.6
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc1
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc2
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc3
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc4
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

I have tested the steps below:
None of those worked.

  I've tried to:
-    - install the Realtek driver for the RTL8188CE (seemed close enough...)
-    - install the driver from
https://github.com/tianon/linux-rtlwifi-8188ce
-    - install linux-backports-modules-cw
-    - upgrade to kernel 3.7
+    - install the Realtek driver for the RTL8188CE (seemed close enough...)
+    - install the driver from
https://github.com/tianon/linux-rtlwifi-8188ce
+    - install linux-backports-modules-cw
+    - upgrade to kernel 3.7
(None of those worked)

Which is normal, the changes could be seen in the related email lists - the
rtl8188ee topic, for example
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg227415.html

The file rtl8188efw.bin could be found linux-firmware package for Ubuntu
13.04 or newer, I did a search by clicking on
[list of files] @ http://packages.ubuntu.com/saucy/linux-firmware web page.

----------------


The results, where the wlan RTL8188EE works fine:

>   I'm on 12.10. The wifi adapter doesn't seem to be recognized at all:
>   doesn't show up in NetworkManager, no adapter listed by iwconfig. The
>   wifi card seems to be a RTL8188E (lspci -nn tells me it's 10ec:8179).
>
>   I've tried to:
>      - install the Realtek driver for the RTL8188CE (seemed close
> enough...)
>      - install the driver from
> https://github.com/tianon/linux-rtlwifi-8188ce
>      - install linux-backports-modules-cw
>      - upgrade to kernel 3.7
>
>   None of those worked.

Title:
  10ec:8179 No wireless support for Lenovo IdeaCentre Q190 (RTL8188E)

Status in HWE Next Project:
  New
Status in The Linux Kernel:
  New
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm on 12.10. The wifi adapter doesn't seem to be recognized at all:
  doesn't show up in NetworkManager, no adapter listed by iwconfig. The
  wifi card seems to be a RTL8188E (lspci -nn tells me it's 10ec:8179).

  I've tried to:
     - install the Realtek driver for the RTL8188CE (seemed close enough...)
     - install the driver from https://github.com/tianon/linux-rtlwifi-8188ce
     - install linux-backports-modules-cw
     - upgrade to kernel 3.7

  None of those worked.
