USB Wireless - y0sh - 10-20-2018

Are you able to add a usb wireless? I have a couple different types and they all work with linux but nothing is working here. I was wondering if anyone has gotten a usb wireless to work and what they had to do.

I have this adaptor:

https://www.pine64.org/?product=rock64-usb-3-0-dual-band-1200mbps-wifi-802-11abgnac-rtl8812au-adapter

and I had to compile drivers as there is only 1 802.11ac driver in the kernel.

Thanks for the response I will have to research and see if I can figure out how to do that.

Took a quick look here:

https://github.com/ayufan-rock64/linux-kernel/find/release-4.4

and it looks like there is drivers available, but the r8712u isn't included, you can file a PR to get this included, but the rt2800usb is included

/lib/modules/4.4.154-1122-rockchip-ayufan-g7859b9b904a9/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/rt2x00/rt2800usb.ko

Appreciate the OP is now sorted - just FYI no need to file a PR to get modules included, Ayufan told me to learn to load modules when I tried a PR! Smile


RE: USB Wireless - Rafius - 12-19-2018

I've flashed a microSD card with the build as specified in this thread, and also found a build on the same website that was updated yesterday. I've noticed that the PPSSPP emulator doesn't render FMV's (I get a bleeding effect), and the "update lakka" doesn't work at all.

I'm not familiar with linux at all, so I'm at a loss on how to get these working. The whole point of me getting a rockpro64 was for PS2 and PSP emulation. Any guesses on what I can do to get fmv's working for ppsspp?
