Steps I follow:

1) Download the driver
2) Unzip RTL819xCU_USB_linux_v3.3.0_2971.zip in a directory
3) cd directory
4) sudo ./install.sh
5) It compiles ok
6) But I don't know how to install it.

Here are the last lines of output of install.sh:

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-3.0.0-12-generic'

I'm using Linux Mint 12, which is based in Ubuntu 11.10.
Any help by a Linux guru will be greatly appreciated.
