The compilation worked, this is the file 88xbu.ko to place in /lib/modules/5.15.148/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ and test https://www.swisstransfer.com/d/58667ff8-0f54-40fd-9b37-a1fea9970e4c EDIT v5.13.1 (https:github.com/morrownr/88x2bu-20210702) https://www.swisstransfer.com/d/987e4787-5faa-44b5-...

There another github pages for rll88x2bu... They all provided source for dkms install (but different readme). The compilation when dkms is not installed (as in EasyOS Kirkstone) seems complicated. I have started to try to compile (with the easy kernel 5.15.148) in MX Linux (where dkms is installed)...

@BarryK Hi Barry, nice to make your e-acquaintance. I really like your EasyOS project. Yes, I did all of that already. Installed both SFS's. Both on main. Ran, seemingly with no issues. Updated headers as well. Driver will still not compile via "make." I looked at the link you provided, th...

I had to abandon the compile on EasyOS as it froze. As you noted, there was no output files to be found anywhere while the compile was running, but no error messages either. For comparison I tried it in the same way on Fatdog. Again, 'make' worked without any producing errors. Ran quicker, but even...

In Q4OS the modules are probably in /usr/lib/modules/"number of the last kernel"/kernel/drivers/net/wireless. (it's the location for such modules in MX Linux). There is effectively a risk the modules do not work in EasyOS specially if the numbers of the kernels are too different (in EasyO...

Waiting for a response from a more experienced forum, I suggest you to copy the module compiled for Q4OS to EasyOS. With luck, it could be works. Apparently according to the github page, this module is cfg80211.ko. In Q4OS. It is probably located somewhere in a subdirectory of the /lib/modules dire...

Have you downloaded the devx.sfs? This has the bulk of the tools/programs needed for compilation. It is also better to install it in the 'Main' filesystem, rather than in a separate container, as you have to make sure you have your source files in the right place, else they won't be found. EDIT I m...

@hnw I want to say :welcome: to the forum! one of the EasyOS people will jump in here at some point and get this thing solved! To clarify...it is the MediaTek driver that is not compiling successfully in your installation of EasyOS? Thank you, Rockedge. Happy to be experimenting with EasyOS. The is...

Hi all. First time poster and first time Puppy Linux user. Puppy has been a distro that I have crossed paths with for years but never installed. So finally, I decided to give it a go, since EasyOS seems really interesting in premise. I did the not recommended thing and installed it on one of my PCs....
