Error while installing TL-WN881ND driver on Ubuntu 20.04
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I've tried installing the driver on Ubuntu 20.04 by following the procedure, but encounter an error when running make.
The output when executing cat /prod/version:
Linux version 5.4.0-48-generic (buildd@lcy01-amd64-010) (gcc version 9.3.0 (Ubuntu 9.3.0
-10ubuntu2)) #52-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 10 10:58:49 UTC 2020
The output when executing make:
