I'm new to the forums. I'm also new to Kali. I used BT5r3 a bit. I am "learning." I have put many days worth of hours, and links, and attempts. I'm stumped. Rebuilding/Building/Compiling drivers, is a bit beyond my complete understanding.I learn by doing,not just reading.So I read,then do.
Here are some recent attempts:
