decided to recompile my backup of the previous working driver to test it as the driver seemed to be a little spotty for me turning off at times, could be explained by the fact i was connecting to a network that required login but still it was being inconsistent for a bit it works fine after recompiling and rebooting after a sudo make install, didn't even need to modprobe This is still on the 5.19.9-arch1-1 kernel, i would've tried ignoring the version magic thing if it failed, but as far as I can see, it didn't i dont know whats being changed or if they are suppose to be meaningful, but in my use case, your current updated version of the driver, as well as 2 versions prior, seem to have this spotty problem with the "create virtual connection" condition to even get it workingthe first one was more noticeable and evident, whereas this time it seemed to only do it after a while, or maybe my internet at a university building requireing a login page is just being stupid, but at the very least, it allowed me to send this very email i am sending, so i guess it works, right? Thanks for the driver, and thanks for the help in a previous email bommy On Sun, Sep 18, 2022 at 7:32 PM bommy985 <turkenlurken@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > over the last while, i have been using your rtw8852be linux driver > which started working again... > following an update to your driver on github, your driver started > acting wonky again > by that i mean it did the same as it did before your revert in the > makefile, require a virtual connection/hotspot(kde) to be made in > order to show networks, let along connect > previously this also made it extremely inconsistent, but now it just > seems to work fine, i just have to make the virtual connection thing > happen. > i am using endeavors on arch 5.19.9 and did a git pull following the > update, and also have a backup of the previous perfectly functioning > version, if this is important > > not exactly a problem, but it is evident that the weird virtualization > wifi connection thing has returned after your recent update, and i > just thought id email you on it > > > > oh also > my email that i previously sent to you was publicized and showed up in > google results a while back, not sure if that was just internal error > on your server, assuming it was(i cant find that anymore), but it > yeah it was public for a time, if its not anymore.
