Armbian on X96 mini (S905w) and wifi drivers


Recommended Posts

Hello .
I am new to Linux
I need to install armbian on x96 mini to run Klipper server for 3d printer on it.
I tried many builds but native WIFI doesn't work anywhere.
Also, usb wifi does not work on RTL8188FTV.
I tried to install the driver from the links https://forum.armbian.com/topic/12160-x96-s905x-driver-rtl8189es-and-rtl8188ftv-for-octoprint-and-klipper-3d-printer/

but can't find a working install kernel headers.

Can someone help me choose and install any assembly for the s905w processor on which either native wifi or RTL8188FTV will work.
Please help a newbie.

As that FAQ post states, don't expect to have working wifi on these tv boxes.  (I don't have working wifi on any amlogic tv box I own).

 

As far as the usb wifi, make sure you install the armbian-firmware-full package (as the default install only contains a limited number of firmwares to keep the install smaller).
