Thanks. Do you know of a good guide or example of compiling a custom image with a unique driver?

Thanks! Running lshw -class network on Armbian gives me:

*-network:0
   description: Ethernet interface
   physical id: 8
   logical name: eth0
   serial: 02:03:17:88:78:a9
   size: 100Mbit/s
   capacity: 100Mbit/s
   capabilities: ethernet physical tp mii 10bt 10bt-fd 100bt 100bt-fd autonegotiation
   configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=st_mac100 driverversion=Jan_2016 duplex=full ip=192.168.1.135 link=yes      
multicast=yes port=twisted pair speed=100Mbit/s
*-network:1
   description: Wireless interface
   physical id: 9
   logical name: wlan0
   serial: 0e:44:b3:1e:34:4f
   capabilities: ethernet physical wireless
   configuration: broadcast=yes driver=xradio_wlan driverversion=5.15.59-sunxi64 firmware=N/A ip=192.168.1.193 link=yes multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11

So I assume it is xradio_wlan 5.15.59-sunxi64?

Is there a way to patch that driver into an existing LIbreelec image, or to compile my own image with that driver? Thanks again for your help.

EDIT:

Digging around a bit looks like source for this driver is available here: https://github.com/fifteenhex/xradio

And firmware is available here:
https://github.com/armbian/firmware/tree/master/xr819

The driver documentation suggests you could compile it and just replace some files to get your linux kernel to load it. Would that be possible to do on an existing libreelec install?

I just purchased an Inovato Quadro which has an Allwinner H6. I am able to get Libreelec 10.0 booted off of a microsd card but there is no wifi available. Tried the latest nightly build with the same result.

Wifi is working fine with the stock pre-installed Armbian (running kernel 5.15.59). Any ideas on how to fix this or figure out why the wifi isn't working? Thanks!
