None of my Wifi modules work
#1
Hello all.
I am testing out the Rock64 4gb. I've installed the community Ubuntu Mate and Debian, and in both none of my Wifi dongles work.
I've found a lot of threads about this, but don't seem to find a solution.
I've got 4 dongles, none work. Here is what I get from 2 simular ones that I want to use.

With lsusb it finds the dongles:
Bus 004 Device 004: ID 148f:5370 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT5370 Wireless Adapter
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 148f:5370 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT5370 Wireless Adapter

This is what I get with lsusb -t

/:  Bus 05.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci-hcd/1p, 5000M
/:  Bus 04.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=xhci-hcd/1p, 480M
    |__ Port 1: Dev 6, If 0, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=, 480M
/:  Bus 03.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=ohci-platform/1p, 12M
/:  Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=ehci-platform/1p, 480M
    |__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=, 480M
/:  Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=dwc2/1p, 480M
    |__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Human Interface Device, Driver=usbhid, 12M
    |__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 1, Class=Human Interface Device, Driver=usbhid, 12M

I downloaded this, but I have troubles getting it to work.

I followed the instructions in the readme file. But when I do make, I get this message at the end.

Can someone please help me. I've been at it for a few days now. I'm no Linux master, so I don't know what I'm doing.
Thank you.
NicoD
