    Having problem in installing usb(TL-wn723N) wifi driver.

    hi,


    I am struggling for weeks and after great searching I have come to know that I have to download driver from the NET that is: rtl8188eu-master.zip. when I unzipped that file and try to make and install the driver I got the following errors:

    make ARCH=i386 CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/3.12-kali1-686-pae/build M=/root/Desktop/rpi-rtl8188eu-master modules
    make: *** /lib/modules/3.12-kali1-686-pae/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
    make: *** [modules] Error 2

    my kernel version is:3.12-kali1-686-pae

    Please help help help help help

    Did you install the kernel headers?

    Code:
    apt-get update
    apt-get dist-upgrade
    apt-get install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r)

    Thank you for replying me. the commands you have written for me:
    - apt-get update
    - apt-get dist-upgrade
    apt-get install -y linux-headers-$(uname -r)

    all of the abover works fine. however when I tried again 'make' command I got the following errors:
