I bought a TP-Link TL-WN822N v4 wi-fi dongle, based upon a Realtek RTL8192EU chipset.



It is recognized out of the box on a Linux system, but would not connect to anything (the connections will be very weak, even though the adapter has external antennas).



What to do?




wifi drivers realtek

          It can be solved by installing this alternative driver.



          You will need an alternate method of internet connection (such as a wired connection or a tethered phone).



          1. Install kernel headers, git and dkms.

          2. Clone the repo: https://github.com/Mange/rtl8192eu-linux-driver.git somewhere in your home directory.

          3. Add it to the DKMS: dkms add ., then build it with dkms install rtl8192eu/1.0.

          4. Try loading the new module 8192eu. If it works, blacklist the broken rtl8xxxu module.

          How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

          Image
          Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers.
