What didn't work?

Wi fi does not work

What did you try?

[please include all details, every small step is important, if already explained above, just use ^^^ or 'see above']

Error code:

#block starts
cp -v firmware/*/* /lib/firmware/

I run the command "sudo make install" and returns this error. I think is incompatible the kernel version.

Can be solved?

Thanks

Did you install kernel headers? I have the same OS and the only thing I had to do was:

• sudo make clean
• sudo make
• sudo ./install

[Richi2293]

Yes, I think it's installed because I was already working. It does not work anymore after I've updated linux headers.

The command "sudo make clean" returns this error:

make -C /lib/modules/uname -r/build M=/home/richi/Scaricati/WIFI driver/nuovo/MT7630E-release/rt2x00 clean make[1]: ingresso nella directory "/usr/src/linux-headers-4.10.0-20-generic" arch/x86/Makefile:140: CONFIG_X86_X32 enabled but no binutils support make[1]: Nessuna regola per generare l'obiettivo "driver/nuovo/MT7630E-release/rt2x00".

Another thing its you must need build-essential package

[Richi2293]

I tried to install but it does not work, it always returns error

[j1cs]

The problem it's you have an compilation error. You need to find why when you run make displays this error. It's not problem of the source code. I find something that can help you.

[Richi2293]

Thank you I solved.

I had a folder with a space in the path where I have the files and I solved by deleting the space. I saw that the commands worked ok so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it works.
