Nothing happens after sudo modprobe esp8089

[iHD992]

Had my RPi Zero with Raspbian Jessie running fine with your driver and my ESP8266. I decided to install a fresh Raspbian Stretch (no hardware changes). Everything worked fine until "sudo modprobe esp8089" where just nothing happened:

Same Problem with 1.9.20180103. Any Ideas? I am pretty sure the hardware is ok as it worked with Jessie.

What does "dmesg" say after you install the module? What about "modprobe"?

[iHD992]

What about "modprobe"?

According to your tutorial on hackaday I expect some response. "If the ESP8089/8266 is found, you should see these lines spread through dmesg: [...]"

What does "dmesg" say after you install the module?

Er... I meant to say "lsmod", not "modprobe"

Anyway, it looks like it's working from your dmesg. You won't see any output after "modprobe" unless there is a failure or if you're on a console receiving kernel log messages.

Run "ifconfig" and you should see the esp8266 on the wlan1 interface.

[iHD992]

You are right. It works now. Thank You! Maybe the Pi got confused about the two wifis (ESP8266 and USB-Wifi dongle) and was even more confused after I replaced the dongle by the keyboard. Also seems to need some time to connect after reboot.
