I recorded the network activity in Chrome devtools and downloaded their source tar from their website. The filename has changed to 1801, with a query string linking to (for now) asix_usb_nic_linux_driver_v3.3.0.tar.bz2. Modifying the PKGBUILD, I got the drivers to build, but then they had issues linking to my initrd:

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 6.10.3-arch1-2 (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/asix/3.3.0/build/make.log for more information.

I did manage to get the modules to compile, but only against an LTS kernel, newer kernels gave -Wincompatible-pointer-types error (even with make -B) kernel-install add after adding the modules.

I found another solution that might help some people, it's this udev rule (e.g. /etc/udev/rules.d/asix88772usb.rule):

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0b95", ATTR{idProduct}=="7720", ATTR{bConfigurationValue}!="1", ATTR{bConfigurationValue}="1"

The adapter I have is working on LTS kernel with the modules I managed to compile, but I did have to create a connection manually for it to initialize - usually NetworkManager does it automatically - but at least it's working. My model:

lsusb | grep -i asix

Bus 003 Device 014: ID 0b95:7720 ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88772

Good luck!

looks like the tarball source file from asix.com.tw is throwing a 404 error, URL must have changed for the download. Package fails to install for me at the step of downloading the tarball

Package updated to 4.24. I have provided a patch as from kernels and onwards 5.5, a function signature has changed.

Current kernel(s) uses variable name M instead SUBDIRS in Makefile. It can be fixed with e.g. simple sed script in PKGBUILD.

Does not build, fails with the following output:

Package updated because kernel internals have changed since kernel 4.20.

I'm aware of a bug. For some reason, the module is not rebuilt after a new kernel has been upgraded. The pacman hook seems to be not triggered properly. Gonna investigate.

I updated the package and simplified the dkms install. I only have a AX88179A device and therefore I am only able to test the AUR package asix-ax88179-dkms. Please let me know if you have problems with this package and I'll do my best to provide a fix if needed.

Sorry taking so long, but compilation was broken with latest gcc and some cleanup was long needed. Please leave your feedback if any errors are found. Thanks

Bobyl commented on 2014-05-16 09:39 (UTC)

After compilation, the module is named asix. The pos_intall modprobe therfore fails since it tries to load asix-dkms.
