fifteenhex's repo looks to be more up to date now: https://github.com/fifteenhex/xradio do you have experience with any of these now?

I got this to build with 5.19.8, but it did not appear to work. I don't know whether the failure is to be attributed to incompatibility with this version or to something else. The symptoms:

  1. No wlan interface after inserting the module
  2. Errors on dmesg:
xradio: XR819 device discovered
xradio ERR: FWIO: Unknown hardware: -1.
xradio ERR: BH: bh thread exiting
xradio PM-DEV: xradio_pm_release

I downgraded all the way down to 5.5.6 and it works.

Try this branch for greatly improved stability (the cost is more power consumption): https://github.com/dbeinder/xradio/tree/karabek_rebase

Just change the "source" line in PKGBUILD to

source=("git+https://github.com/dbeinder/xradio.git#branch=karabek_rebase")

and make the package. Then turn off the "power management" for your wireless interface:

sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off # that would not turn off the module, just it's power management

To make this permanent follow this, just change "power_save on" to "power_save off": https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_management#Network_interfaces

I didn't manage to get this working with the mainline kernel. Even though the interface was visible I couldn't bring it up with ip. However, I did get module sources from https://github.com/karabek/xradio which seem to be working fine. I think they're the ones that the armbian package is built from.

Ok! It works on kernel 5.4.0-rc7-1-ARCH. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for reply, i'll try in few weeks, because i don't have board now.

this out of tree driver need some fine tune for some kernel versions. you should have a try with older kernel versions. pick them at: http://tardis.tiny-vps.com/aarm/

What's wrong? Platform: Orange Pi Zero, kernel: 5.5.0-rc2-1-ARCH

wifi-menu with netctl is not able to join to even an open network. using wpa_supplicant is the recommended way to connect.
