Hi everyone.
I recently installed the "Lite" (32-bit, no desktop environment) image on my Pi 4. It's a fresh and clean system, I haven't tampered with anything.
My current goal is to compile the Alfa wireless drivers for the Realtek "rtl8814au" chipset. I downloaded those according to:
https://docs.alfa.com.tw/Support/Linux/RTL8814AU/
In the source directory, I then issue "make" and it says:
Apparently, there needs to exist a "build" directory under "/lib/modules/6.6.31+rpt-rpi-v8". I checked and my "uname -r" output is indeed "6.6.31+rpt-rpi-v8". When I browse directories, this directory does not have a "build" under it.
However, for example, "/lib/modules/6.6.31+rpt-rpi-v7l" does have a "build" under it.
When I check what kind of "linux-headers" packages I can install, there is only an arm64 package, but I have a 32-bit system (to run the same image on older Pi versions).
Is this a bug or should I install the 64-bit headers? When I try installing the 64-bit headers, I get another error:
...so I cannot install them. I found a likely problem in the Alfa makefile, as it seems to expect being compiled on an i386 PC. I corrected the makefile to look like:
...but it didn't help. I also tested the "rtl8812" driver to be certain. No luck, now the error I get is:
