Re: [qubes-users] Trouble building RTL8821CE WiFi drivers
Thank you, this worked fine(For future duckduckgoers, I did this on fedora in the end, I now feel it makes more sense because the disk usage of the template is not avoidable, by having extra templates its just weighing your disk down). However I have one last parting question, once I reboot sys-net, I lose my driver and have to install it again. I have a feeling that I should install the driver in the template to keep persistence, is this correct? What is the qubes way to do this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Trouble building RTL8821CE WiFi drivers
Ok, it worked to an extent. The build succeeded and the driver now displays the interface in ip -a, however it works no more than that. I have passed through the adapter and turned off sys-net. systemctl shows that the wpa_supplicant service is running, but wpa_supplicant@wls7.service is reported as "inactive (dead)", when I try to start the service, I get a reported "Timed out waiting for device sys-subsystem-net-devices-wls7.service.device"(That is more or less the entire error) in journalctl -xe.

Re: [qubes-users] Trouble building RTL8821CE WiFi drivers
After selecting no kernel, my VM no longer boots. I think I should have mentioned that I am using debian-9-minimal. What should I install to overcome this?

Re: [qubes-users] Trouble building RTL8821CE WiFi drivers
Hello and thank you, but how does one go about installing the stock kernel, is it something I do in qubes or in the VM? I assume this would work with fedora 30 as well.

[qubes-users] Trouble building RTL8821CE WiFi drivers
I am trying to build these drivers on a debian-9 template based vm(my own sys-net, I rather debian than fedora, and I have already tried and got the same result on fedora). The drivers are found here https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce . I installed these easily on other Debian systems and had no such issue. If i try build with the DKMS-install.sh provided, I get this error: pastebin.com/aX9kmZg3 and in the make.log, pastebin.com/XiFfzGWG . If i try build with make, I get this error: pastebin.com/w1QDw5w6 . I looked around and found some related issues on github but lacked solutions at least that I saw, but I need these drivers urgently so apologies if this is common knowledge. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
