    Discontinued Linux Driver for USB WiFi Adapters that are based on the RTL8811CU, RTL8821CU and RTL8731AU Chipsets - v5.12.0

  • I'm running Arch Linux with the kernel version 6.0.2. I just got the pieces for my PC, and when I assembled it, I left one of the two DIMMs wrong (I have never assembled a computer before), so the computer was randomly turning off (or at least that's what I think. Since it put it in the right way, it hasn't done that again). The first time it did that, I was weirded out, but I just assumed that it was because of the two virtual machines I had running. The second time was the one that screwed everything up (and when I noticed how the DIMM was placed). I ran a system upgrade, and the computer turned off while it was rebuilding the initial ramdisk, so I had to chroot into the system partition and reinstall the package linux (I previously tried to run mkinitcpio -P, but it told me that there were no presets available). After that, the system booted up properly, but when I unplugged the Ethernet cable, SURPRISE! No wireless adapters were found. Oh God! I quickly plugged back in the Ethernet cable and downloaded the driver I was using from its github page (https://github.com/morrownr/8821cu-20210118). To avoid problems, I ran the script remove-driver.sh, and gave no errors. But then, after rebooting and running the install script, the installation failed.
