 |
|
Hello, i am trying to build the rtl8812au driver for Dlink from this guide: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/AC1200_Wireless_Adapters
the driver installed without any problems the first time and was working fine, however after recent kernel upgrade, and building the 8812au.ko module again, the compile fails:
i did not post the entire make output to avoid spamming:

squirrelsoup,
What's wrong with the in kernel driver?
| Code: | | error: initialization from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types] |
Says that you have a warning being treated as an error.
The build has failed for that warning.

yes that seems very strange, because the first time it build successfully, but after kernel upgrade i get this warning ending up in error.
*edit*
on kernel 4.10.4-gentoo, using the:
The rtltek 8812au USB driver (kernel 4.3.14) is available from https://github.com/abperiasamy/rtl8812AU_8821AU_linux. --> fails to build
The Realtek 8812au USB driver (kernel 3.10) is available from https://github.com/gnab/rtl8812au. --> successfully build
wireless works again. |
