I am new to Ubuntu. I followed How to install driver for TP-Link TL-WN722N on Ubuntu 14.04? to set up wifi adapter. When I execute sudo make clean I am getting following error

Generating local configuration database from kernel ...Kernel version parse failed!
Makefile:40: recipe for target 'clean' failed
make: *** [clean] Error 1

Please give me some idea

  • What Ubuntu version (cat /etc/lsb-release) and kernel version (uname -r) do you actually have, and what version of the driver did you download, exactly?

  • backports-3.16 is far too old to build in any recent Ubuntu version. Moreover, the driver you are apparently wanting to build, ath9k_htc is included by default in all recent Ubuntu versions. If you plug in the device and it doesn't work, something else is wrong and building an antique driver isn't the solution. Please tell us what's not happening as expected.
