Can't blacklist Wifi Driver

[JrothSKV]

Following the guide here on blacklisting the wifi driver and not having luck. Trying to avoid opening up my printer for the 50th time.

https://github.com/qidi-community/Plus4-Wiki/blob/main/content/8188gu-blacklist/README.md

Can someone please validate whether this procedure is up to date?

(tried with wildcard first, then switched to explicit)

mks@mkspi:~$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-8188gu.conf
blacklist 8188gu

mks@mkspi:~$ lsmod | grep 8188gu
8188gu 1073152 0
cfg80211 876544 1 8188gu

@JrothSKV Pretty sure you need to block them all 3 at the same time, or the one will start the other?

I made a few changes to the doc, have a look https://github.com/JayKuswahey/Plus4-Wiki/tree/patch-2/content/8188gu-blacklist

And check back?

If the file doesn't exist anymore it might be because it's merged and should be in this repo again.
