HI @smp,
Please find 2 posts above associated dmesg with your build.
(same output with last nightly).
Or let me know how to integrate drivers, i know how to build coreelec from source but donā€™t know how to integrate driversā€¦
Thanks in advance,
Cheers

HI @smp
I found this https://github.com/whitebatman2/rtl8821CU.git
and this https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=230499
but i canā€™t figure how to buildā€¦

I can see that thereā€™s a nightly for 10/9 but my boxes are stuck on 6/9. Usually I get the message " An update is available" but not today. Is this what is intended for future nightlies or is this a hiccup?

Confirming Iā€™ve still got 6th September on my Vim3 Pro. Just checked nightlies 11/9 available.
I toggled CE updates from Auto to Manual and back to Auto.
Nothing coming down. Weā€™ll get back with some details.

Same behaviour here. I upgraded manually by downloading tar file.

This has been fixed now, thanks for reporting.

Cause: image names have been changed in the last nightly.

Much appreciated. Thank you to the CoreELEC team for all that you do for us mere mortals.

Hi @smp,

I found a working driver for my debian machine : 4.9.0-11-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.189-3 (2019-09-02) x86_64 GNU/Linux


Could you please make an image replacing existing RTL8821CU module by this one ?
Thank a lot !

It doesnā€™t compile in CE build system. No idea how to fix:

Thank you for trying,
Iā€™ve successfully cross compiled it, but donā€™t know how to integrate it. Iā€™ll send you a link with compiled files.

Finally, Iā€™ve found how to add drivers by myself :relaxed:, so itā€™s ok, building image right now, Iā€™ll let you know.

Did youā€™ve change Makefile to match arm64 ?

Not working, trying others driversā€¦

Tried many drivers, some detect and load my rtl8811cu, interface appears on ifconfig, tried to connect to my SSID with wpa_supplicant but : No suitable network found.
Iā€™m tired with that deviceā€¦ :woozy_face:

Edit final :stuck_out_tongue:

Received a RTL8812AU this morning working flawlesslyā€¦

20190911 build wonā€™t boot on LePotato. Stuck at splash screen. I guess I have to re-format and start from scratch to get it back up?

You can copy SYSTEM and KERNEL from a tar of an older nightly to the SD card manually.

I was fine when updated to the 11/09 yesterday.
Today i got the auto update to 12/09 and i got the stuck on CE splash screen.
Khadas Vim3 Pro.

Fixed using above method and it booted.

12/9 nightly sticks on boot logo for me too on N2. I think you may have a problem. Got it back to 11/9 by pulling the power twice and rebooting.

Pulling the plug does not help ?

I have my N2 sometimes stuck at boot logo, but pulling the plug always brigs it back to life.

Same here on a TR99 X2 (S905X2) box. The update does not apply in the end.

Same here with BeeLink GT King. I managed coping again KERNEL/SYSTEM files from 20190912 tar file. So, same version. It booted.
