I've got Libreelec-AML 9.2.8.7 to build and boot on the MX box, but I'm having an issue with the Realtek 8188ETV wireless.
Libreelec doesn't allow me to enable the 'wireless active' option. I've SSH'd and lsusb, the device is present so I assume the drivers are working.
Various places have mentioned Realtek wireless support is a bit of an issue of contention for the libreelec team, so I'm expecting some pain getting this working.
Unfortunately, this is my first outing in compiling the linux kernel so I'm really a n00b when it comes to this. Is there any recommendations in tackling this issue?
I can post dmesg dump if that would be any help.
The Realtek 8188* is a general USB chip, I also have an external one (TP-Link TL-WN722 v2).
I use an external module for this in my builds, instead of the integrated module of the kernel.
First, you need to check if it is enabled in your kernel configuration, because if it is, it should be disabled:
Next, add RTL8188EU-aml to the ADDITIONAL_DRIVERS variable in the options file in your project directory.
If that doesn't help either, then please send me a log file: journalctl | paste
