As @rogeriotds and others have noted, driver for this card is available in-kernel as of 6.2

Created https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/8188fu-supremegamers-dkms-git for the other fork. Sounds like this is the only option for 6.0 and 6.1 kernels at the moment

Reminder: I am not the driver developer.

For issues with the driver compilation, installation or anything related to the packaging, please leave a comment here and I will do my best to fix it.

For issues relating to the driver's use, please open an issue on the driver repo.

Actually the supremegamers fork builds for me. Did you try master branch? Looks like android branch is only for kernel > 6. I built against 5.19.9 but I'm not set up to try the driver right now.

Your fork looks good but will fail on 6

Both links are not building on 5.19.6, tried running make after cloning. Same old missing struct members Edit: reinvented the wheel with another fork

Has anyone tried https://github.com/kikuingithub/rtl8188fu_linux? This fork of kelebek333's code seems to work up to 6. I think it makes sense for that to be the new upstream

seems like there changes in kernel 5.19+ to allow multiple wiphy links. some ugly #if guards should do the trick

Other Realtek drivers will run into the same compilation errors. For example, rtl8188eu, which is still maintained: https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8188eu/commits/v5.2.2.4

Nice!

Managed to comment out some code(legacy) and build fine. Had some issues with AP mode although

apply patch to /usr/src/8188fu-r109.dfe0a50/os_dep/linux/ioctl_cfg80211.c

I'm away without access to a computer but I'll check it out when I am back. If upstream repo is archived, we don't have too many options. We could try to establish what changes need to be made in order for it to compile.

Denzy7 commented on 2022-09-04 12:28 (UTC)

Driver dev also archived upstream repo. YIKES
