Hi, I've noticed something strange with the two different drivers. the rtl8723bu outputs these kinds of messages in the logs (and doesnt connect to eduroam):

whereas if i uninstall the rtl8723bu and unblacklist the rtl8xxxu, then on reboot, i connect, with these logs:

I'm wondering why this is happening. also with the rtl8723bu, there are two entries in nmcli, a normal one and a p2p one (although i think that might be due to the concurrent mode thing?) I just want to figure out if theres a reason why the driver does not want to work with eduroam. is it a setting in the driver compilation that i can change to make it not do the stuff that outputs those "kernel rtl871x power save" messages? I'm currently using the rtl8723bu-dkms-git package from the AUR but I can git clone and build that way if that's what's needed. Thanks in advance, and thanks for your work on this driver! The speeds are faster, it just doesn't connect to eduroam lol.
