Installing Unfindable Realtek Drivers off of a DVD for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
I have a Wifi adapter I have for my PC. I noticed it had a Ubuntu folder, so I was cool with that cause Ubuntu is low on RAM. (i only have 2gb on this pc). So I get into Ubuntu, log in, and put in the DVD. I go to the folder and try to run the install.sh command. Nothing happens at all. I tried copying over the contents to my Desktop. Still the same result. I tried different users, different DVD drives, and restarting (just to be sure). I googled it on Windows (dualboot 7 and 16.04) and I couldn't find ANY drivers for Ubuntu for the Wifi adapter I had. I'll post the model number. RTL8811AU. I looked around and other people had the same issues, but with no fix. Any drivers/fixes here?
