| Summary | 0000047: rtl8192eu (USB WIFI Dongle) drivers - DKMS build - From Github - Fails | ||||
| Description | Tried installing drivers from source using DKMS. Tried 2 options but both fails - Is this an updtream OS bug because I faced same issues in Cent OS 8 Stream and had to upgrade kernel version from Elrepo - but these kernels are forked out from source at kernel.org and may not be stable. So is there a way - that I can stick to kernel 4.18.240 and able to install driver either from sources mentioned below or from any other source which you may suggest Sources for the above driver : https://github.com/Mange/rtl8192eu-linux-driver and another alternative https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8192eu-linux-driver Error Logs attached. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. After cloning driver from git using git clone command changed directory to that of driver. 2. dkms add . (creates symbolic link) 3. dkms install dkms install rtl8192eu/1.0 Bad Exit Status 2 | ||||

Tried direct compilation (also just now - without DKMS) using make clean and make - at make stage it fails - Source of driver: https://github.com/ZeeRooo/RTL8192EU |

Tried another direct compilation from the source of the site of DIGISOL Brand USB WiFI Token - which also failed (ran direct script provided install.sh): https://smartlink-my.sharepoint.com/personal/marketing_communications_digisol_com/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx?id=%2Fpersonal%2Fmarketing%5Fcommunications%5Fdigisol%5Fcom%2FDocuments%2FDIGISOL%20PRODUCT%20RESOURCES%2FACTIVE%20PRODUCTS%2FWIRELESS%2FUSB%20Adapters%2FDrivers%20%26%20Utilities%2FDG%2DWN3300N%5FC1%2FDG%2DWN3300N%5FC1%2Ezip&parent=%2Fpersonal%2Fmarketing%5Fcommunications%5Fdigisol%5Fcom%2FDocuments%2FDIGISOL%20PRODUCT%20RESOURCES%2FACTIVE%20PRODUCTS%2FWIRELESS%2FUSB%20Adapters%2FDrivers%20%26%20Utilities%2FDG%2DWN3300N%5FC1&originalPath=aHR0cHM6Ly9zbWFydGxpbmstbXkuc2hhcmVwb2ludC5jb20vOnU6L2cvcGVyc29uYWwvbWFya2V0aW5nX2NvbW11bmljYXRpb25zX2RpZ2lzb2xfY29tL0VkUTRVQnVMTE14Tmt5NlJGVEt1Z1J3QmZwQnNqM1R5YlpmUWtsRkI1Wlc4NVE_cnRpbWU9azNFZHl6WHoyRWc |

Hello. It's not an AlmaLinux problem actually but I think I can help you. I've forked driver repo and patched it a bit so now module builds on AlmaLinux 8. https://github.com/andrewlukoshko/rtl8192eu-linux-driver I don't have such device so please test it and give a feedback. |

Respected sir Many thanks, appreciations and gratitude with full respects for your personal concern / knowledge and providing immediate patching so the git source now compiles through DKMS successfully on Almalinux 8.3. I fully agree that this was not at all an OS issue and you are not supposed to provide such a personal level support for non-OS issue and that too even when busy launch schedule was ahead. Still you have helped me out - which is quite creditable. My objective behind posting the issue was - I wanted to stick to / commit to updates to OS /server version exclusively provided by Almalinux repositories and not using any third party repository for a server version whose stability may be in question. I hope you will agree to my above submission. Again, thank you for the personal attention and efforts. Best Regards, Jignesh. |
