9 months ago So, gotta love good ole Oracle Linux!
While you can install kernel-devel, Oracle Linux ALSO needs kernel-uek-devel.
After installing this, setting my kernel back to >5.15, I was able to successfully make && sudo make install and get the adapter working properly.
Additionally, to install dkms you need Oracles epel release oracle-epel-release-el9.
Other than these two items, that is all I did to get the drivers to install and now the wifi dongle is usable.
Thanks,
Jason
I am running OL 9.2 with kernel 5.14.0-284.30.0.1.el9_2
When installing I first dnf make cache && dnf update then rebooted prior to following the initial instructions HERE I then cloned this repo and attempted the make && make install after black listing the requested driver.
I also had to switch to the 5.14.0 kernel after build was giving me issues under the 5.15 kernel due to the kernel-devel still only being on 5.14.
make && make install enters directory and starts compiling but then i get some errors. See below for output.
I have also tried the gglluukk/rtl8188eus version as well and get the same errors. I know I must be doing something wrong here 🤦🏼♂️
Any assistance is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Jason
