Makefile Error: Raspberry Pi OS (64 bit) support was turned on in Makefile as planned

[markschechter]

Thanks Nick!

Here you go! I rand it line-by-line because of the mokutil error.

I forgot to answer your question from the other thread. "One last thing, in the new posting in the new repo, tell me if you know how to use dkms to uninstall the drivers that you have installed."

I don't think I've done it before but dkms status is showing the following: 88XXau, 5.2.20: added rtl88x2bu, 5.8.7.1: added rtl88x2bu, 5.8.7.4: added

I would assume that a dkms remove {package} would do the trick? Looks like all of those were ones I was experimenting with.

[markschechter]

I hope I didn't jump the gun here, but I cleaned up all of the old drivers & ran sudo install-driver.sh

Returns this error:

I am now seeing rtl88x2bu, 5.8.7.4: added from dkms status

[morrownr]

Hmmm...

For now how about you go into the 88x2bu driver directory and run:

$ sudo ./remove-driver.sh

...so as to clean things up.

Give me some time to process what you have posted.

I do need a clarification about the version of RasPiOS. It is the 64 bit beta, correct? If so, can you give me a link?

[markschechter]

Thanks Nick, I ran the script my my dkms is completely clean now.

I think it's the latest stable release. Results of cat /etc/os-release below:

PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)" NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="10" VERSION="10 (buster)" VERSION_CODENAME=buster ID=raspbian ID_LIKE=debian HOME_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/" SUPPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianForums" BUG_REPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianBugs"

I am using the deb http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/ buster main contrib non-free rpi repo.

Need any more info?

Again, thanks for the help & quick responses!

[morrownr]

I got as far as:

http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/dists/buster/main/

...and then it is not obvious where to go.

Where I am headed with this is I need the exact image/iso that you are using so that I can try to duplicate the problem here. I have an extra card that I can dust off and boot.

I've got some ideas but nothing beyond speculation. I worked on the 64 bit RasPiOS support last year but finally gave up as it was a moving target and I have plenty to do without chasing a moving target... but I have a little extra time right now so let's see what we can do.

FYI: I just checked the usage of this repo. This repo is averaging over 1,700 hits per week. My point being that this has to be an issue specific to the distro you are using because if there was a general problem with the driver or the installation, we would be overcome with reports and we are not.

[markschechter]

Understood & much appreciated.

I ran cat /etc/rpi-issue & got the following:

Raspberry Pi reference 2020-02-13

Generated using pi-gen, https://github.com/RPi-Distro/pi-gen, 5f884374b6ac6e155330c58caa1fb7249b8badf1, stage5

Does this help?

Does this help?

Not really. My head hurts. It has been a long day. I want the simplest solution possible to get whatever you are running on a little card so that I can boot it up tomorrow and see for myself what is going on.

[markschechter]

Hey Nick,

I think you might be right that my OS could be screwed up. I ordered another SD Card & I'm planning to rebuild my pi.

For a quick test, I booted up another machine where I was playing with SteamOS. The OS has some problems (game streaming crashes) so I never really did anything with it. I plugged the adapter in, tried the install for 88x2bu, & got the same make error... but now the adapter works... which is odd...

No worries if you don't feel like pursuing this. You can close the ticket & I can provide an update after completing my new build. I plan to start with the driver as soon as I install the OS.

Hi Mark,

I found the site for the images:

https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspios_arm64/

I downloaded the most recent 64 bit image and will burn it today. I'll take a look as I can work it into my schedule. I don't like to see installer problems.

I'll close this issue and when you are ready, you can either reopen this issue or post a new one. Good luck.

[morrownr]

Mark,

Just to let you know, I downloaded 2021-05-07-raspios-buster-arm64.zip from the above site and installed it to a sd card.

I booted the card in my RasPi4B and did an update and full-upgrade. I then followed the installation instructions here at the repo exactly and... the driver installed with no errors or problems and the adapter is working as designed.

There is something wrong with os on your system. Recommend you do a fresh installation and try again.

Nick
