Does it? Module names end in .ko. On jessie: brian@desktop:~/unprint$ locate rtl8723au /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-686-pae/kernel/drivers/staging/rtl8723au /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-686-pae/kernel/drivers/staging/rtl8723au/r8723au.ko My other question requires only a "yes" or "no" answer. It is possible any response to yours could open up a world of wonder. -- Brian.
