sukanime Posted September 24, 2016 Posted September 24, 2016 Hi... Thanks for making Armbian... I Have Mini M8S Android TV Box with Wifi RTL8723BS, i have using Armbian from here http://forum.armbian.com/index.php/topic/1143-armbian-for-amlogic-s905/ I can boot to Armbian, but Wifi not working. But In LibreELEC 7.0.2 the wifi is working, so i cross check, and i found this: ############################################## # LibreELEC # # http://libreelec.tv # ############################################## LibreELEC (community) Version: 7.0.2.007 LibreELEC:~ # lsmod Module Size Used by hci_uart 21997 1 bluetooth 243164 2 hci_uart 6lowpan_iphc 5895 1 bluetooth 8723bs 1675347 0 cfg80211 359903 1 8723bs 8021q 18309 0 wifi_dummy 806 0 aml_nftl_dev 82924 0 fbcon 37385 0 bitblit 4508 1 fbcon softcursor 1200 1 bitblit font 7295 1 fbcon LibreELEC:~ # uname -a Linux LibreELEC 3.14.29 #1 SMP Fri Sep 9 11:17:50 MSK 2016 aarch64 GNU/Linux LibreELEC:~ # cd /lib/modules/ LibreELEC:/lib/modules # LibreELEC:/lib/modules # ls 3.14.29 LibreELEC:/lib/modules # find . | grep 8723 ./3.14.29/kernel/drivers/amlogic/wifi/rtl8723AU ./3.14.29/kernel/drivers/amlogic/wifi/rtl8723AU/8723au.ko ./3.14.29/kernel/drivers/amlogic/wifi/rtl8723BS ./3.14.29/kernel/drivers/amlogic/wifi/rtl8723BS/8723bs.ko LibreELEC:/lib/modules # So the problem is the driver not compiled when building the kernel. is anyone have wifi module driver in /kernel/drivers/amlogic/wifi/ ? can i have it?

balbes150 Posted September 25, 2016 Posted September 25, 2016 In the Assembly LE , in the options specified. https://github.com/150balbes/LibreELEC.tv/blob/Amlogic-S905-kszaq/projects/S905/options # additional Firmware to use (dvb-firmware, misc-firmware, wlan-firmware) # Space separated list is supported, # e.g. FIRMWARE="dvb-firmware misc-firmware wlan-firmware" FIRMWARE="misc-firmware wlan-firmware dvb-firmware brcmfmac_sdio-firmware-aml rtl8723bs_bt" The description of the Assembly https://github.com/150balbes/LibreELEC.tv/tree/Amlogic-S905-kszaq/projects/S905/packages/linux-firmware
sukanime Posted September 26, 2016 Author Posted September 26, 2016 Thanks a lot balbes150 I will try it.... Edit 01-10-2016: The driver option not the one posted by balbes150 above. But in here https://github.com/kszaq/LibreELEC.tv/blob/libreelec-7.0/projects/S905/linux/linux.aarch64.conf Here the quote: # # Amlogic Wifi Driver # CONFIG_AM_WIFI=y # CONFIG_BCMDHD_USE_STATIC_BUF is not set CONFIG_AM_WIFI_DUMMY=m CONFIG_RTL8189ES=m CONFIG_RTL8189FS=m CONFIG_RTL8192EU=m CONFIG_RTL8723AU=m CONFIG_RTL8723BS=m CONFIG_RTL8821AU=m CONFIG_RTL8812AU=m But i cannot find the driver in the linux-amlogic source code - http://sources.libreelec.tv/devel/linux-amlogic-3.14-9c0ad98.tar.xz Right now, i will try building LibreELEC.... Edit again: i found it, in here https://github.com/kszaq/linux/tree/amlogic-3.14.y Edit - 7 October 2016: It's solved, i have post it in here https://forum.armbian.com/index.php?/topic/2419-armbian-for-amlogic-s905-and-s905x/&do=findComment&comment=17181
siruok Posted December 23, 2016 Posted December 23, 2016 sukanime, I have an M8S S812 with the WiFi and Bluetooth chip RTL8723BS and I am trying to find a full SD flash package to run OpenElec or LibreElec. Right now I am able to flash an android 5.1 ROM and everything but WiFi and Bluetooth work...and I could really use help! I have been trying to follow what you mentioned about compiling drivers with the kernel header but I am totally lost. I have Ubuntu and Windows and all of the equipment except for an OTG. Can you help please @sukanime?

I'am sory for late reply, i never go to this topic. so if you not quote me, i will not get the notifications. for what purpose? do you want to compile LibreELEC for your Mini M8S ? i thinks, Kzaq already have LibreELEC for your Mini M8S.
