Hi, I've bought an HP 15 laptop where neither blue tooth or wifi works under both 42.3 and Leap 15.0. Of course it works perfectly under windows 10. I googled and found that Larry Finger maintains a git hub repository of such drivers and I checked out rtlwifi_new which has my RTL8723DE driver src but it fails to build most probably due to the Leap:15.0 kernel being altered. Can anybody help, I'm currently stumped.
Thanks Dave P
This is part of the price you pay for Opensuse basing their latest release on an obsolete deprecated kernel. https://github.com/smlinux/rtl8723de supports it with kernle 4.15.
You can try installing kernel-firmware from Leap 15. The change log of that package suggests it was included in there, and my version seems to have something that looks like it might work
jsa@poulsbo:~> locate -i RTL8723DE /lib/firmware/rtlwifi/rtl8723defw.bin
You might file a bug report if that does not work.
I saw the firmware file, I'm still trying to work out how to install it. I suppose my next step should be a kernel from kernel head and to file a bug. Thanks Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
