I got a strange problem with a USB Wi-Fi adapter based on RTL8188.
The SBC is Orange Pi PC. The dongle is bought from official Orange Pi store (Shenzen Xunlong Inc. or something)
After loading kernel modules for this dongle, kernel crashes.
I can’t provide the logs because i got no serial cable.
and some other things i noticed are; in in cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rtl8192cu.conf eingetragen “blacklist rtl8192cu” ?
Maybe disabling power saving in the device: in /etc/modprobe.d/8192cu.conf
options 8192cu rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_enusbss=0
Other than this im nearly out of my knowledge and a fresh start of compiling and installing dietpi would make a success

Some info in other forums where saying that you would need a minimum of 2A power for the OrangePi and some/this stick to work (explained by the fact, that the kernel would only give out kernel panic. The system crashing meaning a ‘unstable’ / not enough power
Hmm… The results are disappoiting.
Here’s the output of first command:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 843516 Jun 14 03:29 /lib/modules/3.4.113-sun8i/kernel/net/wireless/8192cu.ko
All other commands have been failed with message: No such file or directory (except nano, it said that file didn’t exist and sayed that it will create a new file).
Okay, i created /etc/modprobe.d/8192cu.conf. All is the same. It crashes after some time (usually 10-30 seconds). I think it’s a memory bug. Or, as you said, it can be power bug.
