Automatic setup for RTL8188CUS based wifi adapters. I have produced a script to allow automatic installation of the drivers for Realtek RTL8188CUS based wifi adapters and a document giving instructions on how to use it.

Automatic setup for RTL8188CUS based wifi adapters

The script is rather crude but does the job pretty well I think. All you have to do is edit the script to add your own SSID and PASSWORD and then run a single command. The rest is done automatically by the script. Very simple and it only takes a couple of minutes to get the Pi up and running with wifi. I use a Micronet Wireless LAN USB Adapter Model No: SP907NS which uses the Realtek RTL8188CUS device. Wifi adapters I've found using this chip are: I have only tried it with my device which work a treate. XBMC running on Raspberry Pi. Raspberry Pi. From XBMC Model B Developer Raspberry Pi Foundation pre-v12 (planned) [1] Released Early 2012 OpenELEC , Raspbmc , XBian , Raspbian, Debian GNU/Linux, Fedora, Arch Linux. XBMC - Raspbian. Instructions for building XMBC from source are below, but they will take over 12 hours to compile on the Pi.

XBMC - Raspbian

If this doesn't interest you and you just want a working, binary XBMC package, one is being built and provided by Michael Gorven. It can be installed by following the instructions in his blog post. The following instructions were derived from instructions passed to me from Obsy on the #raspbian IRC channel. These instructions document the steps necessary to build XBMC in Raspbian. These steps are not optimal and need to be refined, but they do result in a working build of XBMC that seems to work well within Raspbian.

Build and Install XBMC Start with a Pisces or similar image of Raspbian. PiscesImages - Raspbian. The Raspberry Pi Foundation has produced and released their own recommended image of Raspbian.

PiscesImages - Raspbian

All users are encouraged to download the Foundation image as it is the best supported image within the Raspberry Pi Forums. This "official" Raspbian image can be downloaded directly from the Raspberry Pi Website Downloads Page . Mike Thompson has produced a publicly available SD image of Raspbian that is bootable on Raspberry Pi hardware. This is called the "pisces" image as that is what Mike's Raspberry Pi system is named on his LAN. This image is a little newer and includes a more complete installation of Raspbian and LXDE than the more minimal Hexxeh image.
