Red Hat RedHat Linux 6.4 is installed on the desktop, and wireless wlan Access is not available. We hereby use a usb wireless Nic.

Enter the command lsusb to see that the USB wireless Nic is

Realtek semiconducorp. RTL8188CUS 802.11n WLAN Adapter

Then install the driver:

First download the driver installation package: 8188cus

Http: // 218.210.127.131/downloads/downloadsView. aspx? Langid = 1 & PNid = 48 & PFid = 48 & Level = 5 & Conn = 4 & DownTypeID = 3 & GetDown = false & Downloads = true # RTL8188CUS

Copy the downloaded file to the USB flash drive. The USB flash drive is in the fat32 format, and the NFTS format needs to be packed in another package.

Linux Mount (fat32) USB flash drive:

Create a usb directory under the mnt directory

Mkdir/mnt/usb

Mount-t vfat/dev/sda1/mnt/usb

After that, run the command (unmount the usb flash disk: umount/mnt/usb to delete the usb Directory: rm-rf/mnt/usb)

Decompress and compile:

Unzip + file name

Go to the folder

Make

Make install

Or./install

Or read README and follow the prompts.

Operation failed:

The following error occurs:

Make: ***/lib/modules/2.6.32-431. el6.x86 _ 64/build/: No such file or directory. Stop.

The problem should be that the kernel development kit is not installed in the system. You can check/usr/src/kernels /,

If the directory is empty, the kernel development kit is not installed, and yum install kernel-devel

If the directory is not empty, you need to reconnect it:

[Root @ localhost ~] # Cd/lib/modules/2.6.32-431. el6.x86 _ 64

[Root @ localhost 2.6.32-431. el6.x86 _ 64] # ln-s.../../usr/src/kernels/2.6.32-431. el6.x86 _ 64/build

Run make & make install again.

After installation, configure the NIC:

The simplest way is to install X Desktop and configure it on the desktop.

Install the X graphical interface # Check which components have been installed

Yum grouplist

Installation:

Yum groupinstall "X Window System"-y

Yum groupinstall "Desktop"-y

Uninstall:

Yum groupremove 'x Window system'-y

Yum groupremove 'desktop '-y

After installation, enter startx in the terminal.

After entering the graphic interface, configure it.
