Arch Linux User Repository

@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.

I have been getting errors since the deletion of the "extended" branch; this package is no longer working for me, and I have to manually clone the repo to get WiFi. My WiFi card is RTL8723DE.

Here are some of the odd errors (clean built twice, kernel 5.7.2):

No wifi at all using the r328.6dcff1c-2 package, even after the dkms.conf update. Reverting to r293.05f5504-1 version, works flawlessly. (RTL8822BE)

@TheGoliath

dkms.conf needs update

Thank you. So much better with this driver :) RTL8822BE

Thank you so much for this ! After kernel 5.4, that's the only way i can get functional wifi on my machine. (RTL8822BE) Deeply appreciate it.
