Well, I decided to download and build
https://github.com/chunkeey/rtl8192su/archive/master.zip
and loaded the driver.
It did not detect the presence of my wifi, as shown by iwconfig.
iwconfig only shows my built-in intel wireless card.
dmesg shows:
[15749.044546] usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8192su <<<
Driver loaded
then I plugged in the usb wifi dongle:
