Error while Installing Driver
Solution 1:
Manually search for the 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2 archive (LINUX driver for kernel up to 4.10) and drag this archive's icon from the file manager into the terminal to show the full path to it. The full path to 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2 is everything in the path except for 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2 itself which is the archive's correct name.
Change directories using cd
to the full path that you previously noted and run this command:
tar vjxf 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2 # the archive's correct name is 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2
When you have changed directories using cd
to the directory containing 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2 you can check that you are in the correct directory by running ls
. The results of ls
should show that 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2 is contained in the current working directory, so the command tar vjxf 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2
will be successful since 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2 is accessible from the current working directory.
When you extract the contents of 0010-r8101-1.033.00.tar.bz2 it extracts them to a directory named r8101-1.033.00 which contains instructions for the next steps in the readme file.
