I'm following the instruction to install the module, and got the following error. 

$ sudo dkms install rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414

What is the problem? The kernel???

Similar problem on Mageia6-x64: dkms add ./rtl8723de

Error! Invalid number of arguments passed. Usage: add -m -v How do I find the module-version? Thanks Grimble

To install the module for the RTL8723DE chipset, first determine your kernel using uname -r if your kernel is lower than 4.11, do

sudo apt-get install build-essential dkms git git clone -b 4.10-down https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8723de.git sudo dkms add ./rtl8723de sudo dkms install rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414 Then reboot If you have kernel 4.11 and newer do

sudo apt-get install build-essential dkms git git clone https://github.com/jeremyb31/rtl8723de.git sudo dkms add ./rtl8723de sudo dkms install rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414 Then reboot

@zolleride thank you. The jeremyb31 fork works for me.

My kernel version is higher than 4.11(4.4.0-31-generic).When i am trying to install the module,i get the following error message: Building module: cleaning build area....

@gravitydestroyer 4.4 is not higher than 4.11, 11 > 4!

lenny87 commented 6 years ago

@gravitydestroyer install HWE kernel on your ubuntu and compile again. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack#Desktop

RituparnaLinux commented 6 years ago

@zolleride Your solution worked for me. My kernel is 4.13.0-36, the 2nd option clicked!

I have been struggling with this problem for 3 days. Thank you.

My kernel version is 4.15.0-122-generic

Even after following above steps for version > 4.11 the same error is arising
