This is my first post here, I'm new to Linux and Debian, did a lot of research to fix this, can't find a solution, I hope someone can help.
I'm trying to set up a PC for use as a CNC controller with LinuxCnc. The people at LinuxCnc have packaged a Live/Install ISO file, from which I installed my system. It is running with a real-time version of the Kernel : 3.4-9-RTAI-686-pae. Install of the system was easy and fast.
Now, I'm trying to add a Wifi card to this machine, for I won't have a wired connection option where I'm going to use it. I've installed a TP-Link TL-WN881ND v.2 PCIe card, and can't get it to work. AFAIK, the chipset is "Realtek 8192E PCI WiFi"
Excerpt from dmesg :
