rtw89 VS rtl8188fu

I found this GitHub link that contains instructions on how to compile the driver for most distributions. However, they require usage of make install so I don't think that would work on NixOs.

I have the older version with the 6900HS but it’s more or less the same. I’ve run pop_os as well as fedora on it. Everything works great but you’ll have to compile the wifi driver https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89.

I have seen other people with newer Lenovo systems reporting success with this: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89/blob/main/README.md

This is a Realtek rtl8852be chipset and uses the rtw89 driver which does not come prepackaged in the Linux kernel... See https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89

Got mine working on a fresh Ubuntu 22.04 with 7 commands: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade sudo apt install make gcc build-essential git git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89.git cd rtw89 make sudo make install sudo reboot 0

Yes I guess, its already been reported in earlier versions. I tried to install from code, https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89 But it didn't work either.

Realtek drivers are such a PITA. Check out this guys Github: Link he has instructions on how to get the most common realtek chipsets working. Please note, kernel updates will break the drivers for all realtek workarounds and you will have to redo this after each update.

but to my understanding, it cannot be installed due to kernel related issues. so i tried installing this instead with no luck: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89

apt-get install make gcc linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential git Install 'fix': git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89.git -b v5 cd rtw89 && make && sudo make install load module: sudo modprobe rtw89pci

git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89.git -b v5 cd rtw89 && make && sudo make install

sudo apt-get install build-essential git dkms && git clone https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu && sudo dkms add ./rtl8188fu && sudo dkms build rtl8188fu/1.0 && sudo dkms install rtl8188fu/1.0 && sudo cp ./rtl8188fu/firmware/rtl8188fufw.bin /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/ &&

A little internetting and it seems that she'll want to use this driver: https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu

I'm running ubuntu 22.04 and currently have no internet connection. I want to install drivers for my dongle and have copied them over from the Windows install. I downloaded https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu these drivers (they're the only ones that work for my dongle) and I want to install them. I have them already downloaded in a folder, so how do I install them from here?

GitHub Driver With Install instructions for Debian Ubuntu Mint Dirivitives.

The driver for this chip is not part of Linux kernel so you’d have to cross compile the driver and install it : https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu Not easy task

Try the instructions on this page: https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu

So I have trying out different distros for a while and wanted to try out Fedora for a while , i have been using this wifi driver in other distros and wanted to know if this works in Fedora or is there any other way to get this driver for fedora

This probably needs this: https://github.com/kelebek333/rtl8188fu Your distro may have a driver for it already. Maybe not.

And then search for that driver in my case it is RTL8188FTV and then try one that works for you like in my case this one worked for me. If you are having any problem you can message me, I'll try to troubleshoot that.
