# rtl8192eu linux drivers
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The official drivers for D-Link DWA-131 Rev E, with patches to keep it working on newer kernels.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Source for the official drivers
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Official drivers were downloaded from D-Link Australia. D-Link USA and the european countries I checked only lists revision A and B. Australia lists all three.

## Patches
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can see the applied patches, their sources and/or motivation by looking at the commits. The `master` branch will be kept clean with a single commit per patch. You can review patch by patch and then record the SHA for that commit in order to get a safe reference to use. As long as the SHA stays the same you know that what you get has been reviewed by you.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Note that updates to this README will show up as separate commits. I will not mix changes to this file with changes to the code in case you want to mirror this without the README.
