Eu sou novo no Linux * usando o Ubuntu 14.04) e estou tendo problemas para instalar meus drivers de wi-fi. Eu encontrei os arquivos apropriados online e os colei no diretório / lib / firmware como dizem as notas de instalação. No entanto, estou sem palavras sobre como carregar esses drivers no kernel. Eu pesquisei e não criei muita coisa. Isto é o que dizem as notas de instalação:
The iwlwifi driver will look for the file iwlwifi-8000C-13.ucode using
the kernel's firmware_class infrastructure. More information can be
found under Documentation/firmware_class in kernel source. In order to
function correctly, you need to have this support enabled in your
kernel. When you configure the kernel, you can find this option in
the following location:
Device Drivers ->
Generic Driver Options ->
Userspace firmware loading support
You can determine if your kernel currently has firmware loader support
by looking for the CONFIG_FW_LOADER definition on your kernel's
.config.
In addition to having the firmware_class support in your kernel, you
must also have a working udev and uevent infrastructure configured.
The steps for installing and configuring udev are very distribution
specific.
Once you have the firmware loader in place (or if you aren't sure and
you just want to try things to see if it works), you need to install
the microcode file into the appropriate location.
Where that appropriate location is depends (again) on your system
distribution. You can typically find this location by looking in the
udev scripts of your distro, the default is /lib/firmware."
Como faço isso?
Obrigado pela sua ajuda!
Edit: eu usei isso no terminal hte
lspci -knn | grep Net -A2; uname -a
E recebi as seguintes informações:
Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 8260 [8086:24f3] (rev 3a)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device [8086:1130]
05:00.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation Device [8086:1576]
Do uname -a
