For example it doesn't respect the changes to the timer done in the 4.15 kernel I tried lowering my linux kernel version in the "make menuconfig" settings as a compromise but this library still won't compile. Tried and failed with kernel versions 4.11, 4.12 and 4.14 The kernel itself seems to have an up-to-date driver for it (https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/drivers/staging/rtl8723bs) but I don't think we can access it via buildroot Is there any chance to fix this library? Thanks I've attached my .config file if it helps -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ buildroot mailing list buildroot@buildroot.org https://lists.buildroot.org/mailman/listinfo/buildroot
