never forget to give execution rights to a script......

this is the file /storage/.config/autostart.sh

Bash

#!/bin/bash
# autostart.sh

insmod /storage/88x2bu.ko #to insert the module
echo 0bda b812 >  /sys/bus/usb/drivers/rtl88x2bu/new_id #to trigger the driver if unplugged
~

then chmod 755 autostart.sh

Perhaps you could edit or create the /storage/.config/autostart.sh file and put there something like this: insmod /PathToFile/RTL88x2BU.ko ?

reading other posts I have already tried this approach but wasn't successful..

I've also read something about device ids to add somewhere but I can't figure out where exactly

last question! sorry about that! what are the best practices to load a module after reboot?
I suppose the better way would be triggering modprobe on device id.. but how should I get this result?

any hint abt this?

hey there, hi everybody this is my first post.
I'm struggling try to make a realtek with code 0bda:b812.

I've read many threads suggesting not to use such a device but that is what I have and I have no money at the moment to buy something else (and this device works very well indeed, apart from the bad support for linux drivers).

I would like to understand how to cross compile its kernel module (on osx or linux) or even on a raspbian installation, I'm really confused from all the infos I fount here and elsewhere.

Is there a guide I can follow step by step?

Is there any module already compiled I can use straight away?

my libreelec is 9.2.6 on RPI3

Thanks for any hint I will receive
