@Kuci The discussion, about including or not linux-headers as a dependencies, in a dkms package should happen on the AUR mailing list. we should follow what is written in the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dynamic_Kernel_Module_Support#Dependencies) which is not including linux-headers as a dependencie because dkms already lists it as an optional one.

You should add linux-headers into list of dependencies.

I'm having trouble with an Edimax EW-7811Un, which I'm assuming uses this driver. Am I correct in installing this if I need support? Also, why doesn't the default kernel module work?

@Revelation60 3.18.6-2 on pi working fine. It's been a bit strange these last few kernel updates, I've had to rebuild and reboot a couple times.

I cannot get a connection all of a sudden on 3.18.6-1. Am I the only one with this problem?

@Magbed Yes it's working ok.

Anyone tried this driver with the 3.18 kernel? Is it working ok?

I've moved the directory /lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/ to another place, ran depmod, modprobed 8192cu and it looks like now I'm running the correct module: [root@pie ~]# modinfo 8192cu | head filename: /lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8192cu.ko version: v4.0.2_9000.20130911 author: Realtek Semiconductor Corp. description: Realtek Wireless Lan Driver license: GPL srcversion: 3464AB527D55EA9F19C67AC

I'm running Archlinux on a Raspberry PI. It looks like after installing the package, the system is still using a driver which comes packaged with the kernel: [root@pie ~]# modinfo 8192cu | grep -i file filename: /lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/8192cu.ko.gz [root@pie ~]# ls -l /lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/8192cu.ko.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 242943 Oct 7 16:05 /lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/8192cu.ko.gz [root@pie ~]# And here's the actual driver built by the package: [root@pie ~]# ls -l /usr/lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8192cu.ko -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 636580 Oct 28 17:57 /usr/lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8192cu.ko [root@pie ~]# Some more info: [root@pie ~]# locate 8192cu.ko /usr/lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8192cu.ko /usr/lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/8192cu.ko.gz /var/lib/dkms/8192cu/v4.0.2_9000/3.12.29-1-ARCH/armv6l/module/8192cu.ko [root@pie ~]# md5sum /usr/lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8192cu.ko /usr/lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/8192cu.ko.gz /var/lib/dkms/8192cu/v4.0.2_9000/3.12.29-1-ARCH/armv6l/module/8192cu.ko 93a56119f7210a5265c507019a28c4b5 /usr/lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/8192cu.ko d41b5d92544b879764b4430a3580f42c /usr/lib/modules/3.12.29-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8192cu/8192cu.ko.gz 93a56119f7210a5265c507019a28c4b5 /var/lib/dkms/8192cu/v4.0.2_9000/3.12.29-1-ARCH/armv6l/module/8192cu.ko [root@pie ~]# The dkms driver is the first and the last file.
