@o_flipper, do you have linux-headers installed? You must manually install the correct linux-headers for all your kernels.

ArchWiki states that I should not include linux-headers in the dependency list (because they are individual for each user). Read about build process and DKMS.

Hello I have realtek 8821ce chipset and very bad wifi connection and connection keeps dropping..Please help me for any fix and solutions?

In /etc/default/grub I have put pci=noaer at GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=

lsmod | grep rtw

rtw_8821ce 16384 0 rtw_8821c 94208 1 rtw_8821ce rtw_pci 36864 1 rtw_8821ce rtw_core 266240 2 rtw_8821c,rtw_pci mac80211 1236992 2 rtw_core,rtw_pci cfg80211 1073152 2 rtw_core,mac80211

In /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf I have put:

blacklist rtw88_8821ce blacklist rtw88_8821c blacklist rtw88_pci blacklist rtw88_core

In /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager-intern.conf have put [connectivity].set.enabled=false and set BSSID manually in gnome wifi settings app.

In /etc/modprobe.d/rtw.conf I have

options rtw_pci disable_msi=1 options rtw_pci disable_aspm=1

Wifi is constantly disconnecting. Does anyone have solutions for fix?

@jonathon, I figured out them for myself empirically, but I cannot guarantee that they will work for everyone.

Hopefully my changes won't break anything. What do you think of it?

jonathon commented on 2021-12-21 16:08 (UTC)

@PRESFIL, what would you think about including a file to blacklist in-kernel drivers when this driver package is installed?

==> dkms install --no-depmod -m rtw88 -v r87.6ccdad5 -k 5.14.10-arch1-1 Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.14.10-arch1-1 (x86_64) Consult /var/lib/dkms/rtw88/r87.6ccdad5/build/make.log for more information.

I tried to cat /var/lib/dkms/rtw88/r87.6ccdad5/build/make.log but it does not exist. Trying to install through yay.

Edit: Seems like running yay -S rtw88-dkms-git again fixed it, somehow.

broken here too. ==> Unable to install module rtw88/r100.87f32b6 for kernel *: Missing kernel headers.

PRESFIL commented on 2021-02-21 21:48 (UTC)

As far as I understand, upstream provides the driver needed. tree /var/lib/dkms /rtw88/ and tree /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/updates/.

You can read upstreams's README also. Don't miss the last paragraph ;)

jfernandz commented on 2021-02-21 20:23 (UTC)

@PRESFIL do you think we should report this to dkms upstream?

Also ... I was wondering if this driver has something to do with the Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL8822BE Bluetooth 4.2 Adapter because I'm having a lot of problems with it, and I was thinking in fill a bug in the upstream.

You can try to look inside make logs. Search this files with

find /var/lib/dkms/rtw88/ -iname '*log*'

UPD1: OK, now I'm experiencing this error too.

But apparently the build is successful. Maybe this is some minor bug in dkms. It says that there is no such module in the current kernel: 

rtw_pci.ko.xz:
Running module version sanity check.
 - Original module
   - No original module exists within this kernel

, but it is there!

All modules after the build are present here:

/usr/lib/modules/$kernel/updates/

The original ones remain in their places. It seems that the build is successful and it is not critical.
