It's the reason I bought the new       > RTL88x2bu (I shouldn't have).              I can't find any mail with the string "RTL8188" in them :-? (1)              IF that thing worked before and stopped working, the thing to do is       directly report in bugzilla.                                   (1): I find entries in the build logs. For example:              Subject: [opensuse-factory] Leap 15.2 Build 563.1 released!              - staging: rtl8188eu: Add device code for TP-Link TL-WN727N v5.21        (git-fixes).              Subject: New Tumbleweed snapshot 20210406 released!              - staging: rtl8188eu: prevent ->ssid overflow in rtw_wx_set_scan()        (bsc#1012628).              Subject: openSUSE-SU-2021:1977-1: important: Security update for the       Linux Kernel               - staging: rtl8188eu: fix potential memory corruption in        rtw_check_beacon_data() (git-fixes).                     So there is indeed activity around that chip.                     --       Cheers, Carlos.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
