VU+ WIFI dongle

1 April 2024 - 23:13

Hi,
 
I have a VU+Zero4K and a VU+ wifi dongle RTL8812AU that is not working in OpenPLi 9.0
I do make it work on OpenPLi 8.3

OpenPLi 8.3 and 9.0 use the same kernel 4.1.20-1.9
 

root@vuzero4k:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:0811

In OpenPLi 8.3 I make it work with installing from feed->

opkg install firmware-rtl8xxxu
opkg install kernel-module-88xxau

But in OpenPLi 9.0, the kernel module is not present, only the firmware?

root@vuzero4k:~# opkg update
root@vuzero4k:~# opkg list | grep firmware-rtl8xxxu
firmware-rtl8xxxu - 1.1+git296+4b2b151-r0.0 - firmware-rtl8xxxu version 1.1+gitAUTOINC+4b2b151e18-r0
root@vuzero4k:~# opkg list | grep kernel-module-88xxau
root@vuzero4k:~#
root@vuzero4k:~# opkg list | grep kernel-module-88*

If someone ask me to test the these modules, it is not working->

kernel-module-8821cu

kernel-module-88x2bu

I have also tested with latest OpenViX 6.5.002 image, and there it is working out of the box.

Anyone that can give a hint of the reason the kernel module for this wifi device is not present in 9.0 release ?
