How can I see the installed drivers in Kali Linux operating system and how can I uninstall one ?

Best Regards

I need to install this driver to support a usb adapter

Oh for that, you should use lspci -vv.

I tried to install. Is it installed ?

[_defalt]

I can't see your wifi adapter listed. Is your wifi adapter working? Are you using virtual machine. Driver name can be different from the name of that chipset used in wifi adapter.

At this moment I don't have the usb adapter connected. It's an Alfa Network usb adapter reference AWUS036AC (https://www.alfa.com.tw/products_show.php?pc=134&ps=208)wireless adapter with Realtek 8812AU.
I have seen in Github several drivers for this device.
I Think AstSam is the last...

If you know the driver name you can look it into \lib\firmware

but I don't know how to recognize the driver RTL8812AU

Best Regards

[_defalt]

Reinstall that driver and during installation note down its name.

[Fielding]

I think I fail installing the driver by some reason.
The driver I need to install is the github astsam for RTL8812AU
What is the order in the commands i must use exactly and content.
Best Regards
https://github.com/astsam/rtl8812au

Is this the last one ?
When have I to connect the usb adapter.
What's the configuration i must have in VirtualBox ?
Need I uninstall a prior driver if exist ?

Best Regards

[Fielding]

The steps I tried were these :


sudo apt install linux-headers-amd64 build-essential git
git clone -b v4.3.21 https://github.com/astsam/rtl8812au.git
cd rtl8812au && make && sudo make install

What I did wrong ?

What is the correct sequence or commands ?

Best Regards

[_defalt]

I never tried it in virtual machine. You should search it in How tos (https://forums.kali.org/forumdisplay.php?10-Community-Generated-How-tos) sub forum. It's a very popular wifi adapter.
