Ah, doh, that was my fault, sorry, that patch was incorrect (odd git id,
don't know where that came from, it's a different id in my tree.) Let
me revert this commit and then will redo it correctly.
thanks for finding this.
There are lots of these on Ebay from $2.47 up with free shipping!
Any hints on the name for how to figure out which devices are supported
by this driver?
I do not why my git id did not match yours.
It was no problem. After I determined that the original code was correct, it was
an easy bisection - 6 cycles with only r8188eu needing rebuilding.
The driver supports RTL8188EU and RTL8188EUS. The name comes from the 8188E, and
the U means a USB interface. The S indicates a new design that appears the same
to the driver.
