Subject: Driver for RealTek RTL8811AU dual-band USB WiFi adapter
Date: Sun, 4 Nov 2018 15:43:04 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <fed00b53-2468-55ea-fa98-0a324a469075@gmail.com> (raw)
I recently bought one of these
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07C4JQZSP/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
;
a dual-band wifi adapter. It came with source for a Linux driver, which
required some patching to get it to work with the
4.19 kernel. Can I interest a kernel developer to integrate this into
kernel.org ? It would save me
effort at further patching if someone else kept it current as the kernel
changes.
The driver from Amazon is here
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1AYmjFk2l5jTpnAzLPNpetSGefm4khEBi
and my patch is here
http://tjcw.freeshell.org/Patches/rawhide-20181031.patch .
The Amazon driver is stated to be GPL, and I am content for my work to
be GPL also.
If you need further information, please email me (tjcw at cantab.net)
