i've just installed Kubuntu 15.04 Beta 2 and i'm looking for a way to get the wifi adapter to work. The old ways of installing the driver using dkms don't seem to work anymore because of the newer kernel. Do you guys know how i can get my internet to work? The standard driver lists all available networks, but I'm not able to connect to any of them. Thanks in advance

I tried to install it using dkms, but failed because of the wrong kernel when executing sudo dkms install 8192cu/1.9 – Kali Norbok Apr 12 '15 at 09:48

It appears to have failed because you do not have gcc installed. Run `sudo apt-get install build-essential` and try again. – zhongfu Apr 12 '15 at 10:26

The make.log you added in a comment shows that the dkms build is failing because gcc is missing. You can install either gcc or build-essential with sudo apt-get install gcc or sudo apt-get install build-essential.
