install-driver.sh

#!/bin/sh

# Purpose: Install Realtek out-of-kernel USB WiFi adapter drivers.
#
# Supports dkms and non-dkms installations.
#
# To make this file executable:
#
# $ chmod +x install-driver.sh
#
# To execute this file:
#
# $ sudo ./install-driver.sh
#
# or
#
# $ sudo sh install-driver.sh
#
# Note: It is common for Realtek out-of-kernel drivers to have many
# source files set to executable. This can cause problems in some
# situations. To remove executable from files only, run the following
# in the subdirectories:
#
# find . -type f -exec chmod -x {} \;
#
# To check for errors and to check that this script does not require bash:
#
# $ shellcheck remove-driver.sh
