DO NOT READ FURTHER :) I GOT IT COMPILED

 

after typing 

"apt-get install htop"

it started to install the headers.... strange :)

 

 

 

------------------------------------------------------------

 

Hey guys,

 

I am stuck:

 

Followed this: https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Advanced-Features/#how-to-build-a-wireless-driver

 

Try to port it to r8152.ko (RTL8153) / ax88179_178.ko

 

I. (Before I started "apt-get update && upgrade")

 

1. Install Armbian Headers via armbian-config (Check)

2. wget http://www.asix.com.tw/FrootAttach/driver/AX88179_178A_LINUX_DRIVER_v1.18.0_SOURCE.tar.bz2 (Check)
3. aptitude install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) (Check)
4. tar -xjf AX88179_178A_LINUX_DRIVER_v1.18.0_SOURCE.tar.bz2 (Check)
5. cd AX88179_178A_LINUX_DRIVER_v1.18.0_SOURCE/ (Check)

6. chmod a+x Makefile (Check)
7. make 

 

Then this comes:

Quote

 

root@orangepipc2:/tmp/AX88179_178A_LINUX_DRIVER_v1.18.0_SOURCE# make ARCH=arm64

 

make -C /lib/modules/4.14.4-sunxi64/build SUBDIRS=/tmp/AX88179_178A_LINUX_DRIVER_v1.18.0_SOURCE modules
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/4.14.4-sunxi64/build: No such file or directory.  Stop.
Makefile:31: recipe for target 'default' failed
make: *** [default] Error 2

 

 

I checked path :  "/lib/modules/4.14.4-sunxi64/build" and it is not existing. :(

 

II. Tryed to change Path of Makefile "KDIR =  /usr/src/linux-headers-4.14.4-sunxi64"  

Then i get

Quote

root@orangepipc2:/tmp/AX88179_178A_LINUX_DRIVER_v1.18.0_SOURCE# make ARCH=arm64
make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-4.14.4-sunxi64 SUBDIRS=/tmp/AX88179_178A_LINUX_DRIVER_v1.18.0_SOURCE modules

make[1]: *** No rule to make target 'modules'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-headers-4.14.4-sunxi64'
Makefile:31: recipe for target 'default' failed
make: *** [default] Error 2

 

III.

 

then i tried :

 

Quote

root@orangepipc2:~# apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essentials

:/ - Just want to have the latest drivers for the USB3.0 to Ethernet Cards..... ANybody maybe successfull with that ? 
 

 

 

Try this: 

KDIR    = /usr/src/linux-headers-4.14.4-sunxi64

It worked for me instantly, well on some other machine which I am just playing with:

You only need to install our headers (as written in our manual), nothing else!

Hi Igor,

 

keep up great work. As mentioned in the Bottom line I made it. The headers just did not install instantly :)- Do you by chance need the compiled new drivers ? :D Made it for rtl8153 and asix 88179 .

I am using drivers supplied with a kernel and both works. I am not aware of any issues. Are there any?
