OK, showing my lack of knowledge, and trying to fix something that isn’t REALLY broken, but…
Following on from this thread.
Adaptor IS working, but, no indicators (flashy lights…) or otherwise, are…
Not real sure what driver is being used, but assuming it is one (or all?) of these from lsmod:
rtw88_8822bu 16384 0
rtw88_usb 28672 1 rtw88_8822bu
rtw88_8822b 229376 1 rtw88_8822bu
rtw88_core 249856 2 rtw88_usb,rtw88_8822b
Cannot find a package that has installed this, so maybe is now in the Kernel?? Is it?
Seems to be provided by kernel-default + kernel-firmware-realtek??
Anyway I can get my flashy lights back?
Thanks.
the driver should be in the kernel found in Linux kernels: 6.2–6.4
what is your kernel? do a
uname -a
in the terminal and copy it oveer
https://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/RTW88_8822BU.html
qwert.zuiop:
uname -a
uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 6.3.9-1-default #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Jun 22 03:53:43 UTC 2023 (0df701d) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Any way to get the flashy lights back? Bug report…?
@hornetster on the device or keyboard?
On the device - has an activity led that now doesn’t work.
Still works in Win/Ubuntu.
@hornetster That is usually a kernel module option…
On a working system can you check the module ‘Parameters:’ section via systool -vm <module_name>
systool -vm rtw88_core
Module = “rtw88_core”
Attributes:
coresize = “249856”
initsize = “0”
initstate = “live”
refcnt = “2”
srcversion = “0B4CEBDEE7333984AD8E484”
taint = “”
uevent =
Parameters:
debug_mask = “0”
disable_lps_deep = “N”
support_bf = “Y”

Don’t think there is anything relevant there?
Have created a bug: 1213121 – Network driver not enabling activity indicator on Realtek RTL88x2bu USB Device
Thanks.
@hornetster and are those parameters the same on openSUSE? I would expect one of the rtw modules to have a led parameter?
malcolmlewis:
systool -vm
Sorry, misunderstood.
That previous post was for tumbleweed…
Ubuntu uses a different driver (88x2bu), and has a load of parameters, but there doesn’t seem to be a led parameter…:
