Compile issue on 5.15

[ueco-jb]

I had basically same compilation error as in issue https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8814au/issues/76. Patch from comment worked on my kernel 5.15.3-arch1-1. Is there a reason why this isn't pushed alreday? Or can I just create PR with it? Br

[realFlowControl]

I used the patch from PR #82, works for me

i'm new what should i do to make this work on Fedora 35, kernel 5.14.18-300.fc35.x86_64 i'm having the errors during the make

How much new are you? Do you know how to use git? You can check out branch from #82 PR:

$ git clone https://github.com/alxgnon/rtl8814au.git
$ cd rtl8814au
$ git checkout fix_5.15

and then build and install from there.

i've switched from windows 3 weeks ago so i'm pretty bad, i don't really know how to use git but : git checkout fix_5.15 isn't working (error: pathspec 'fix_5.15' did not match any file(s) known to git)

[ueco-jb]

Did you clone repo I pointed to? Because it's not the aircrack-ng, it's some other user's who submitted the fix. Branch is in his repository.

$ git clone https://github.com/alxgnon/rtl8814au.git

ok sorry, did this (Branch 'fix_5.15' set up to track remote branch 'fix_5.15' from 'origin'. Switched to a new branch 'fix_5.15') but then make gives me the same error and can't install:

You can also try this repository, from comments on: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rtl8814au-dkms-git/ I got info that it's more up to date with latest kernels.

$ git clone https://github.com/morrownr/8814au

Also, please read how to use Markdown on GitHub to paste code/logs.

thanks a lot for the help, i'll read it

This worked and i installed it, after a reboot i can now see my device ed scan for networks but it fails to connect to any network. Do you have any idea?

[ueco-jb]

It depends on program which you use to connect to networks. Since you're on Fedora, you're probably using NetworkManager. Try reading logs from: $ journalctl -u NetworkManager (CTRL + g to get to the bottom) Try to get error out of those logs, maybe create a proper question on stackoverflow.com or some Fedora-specific page. This thread is not a good place to continue such investigation.

Thanks again for the help you gave me, i finally made it work, have a nice day
