RSS Bot Posted January 23 Posted January 23 The recently mainlined RTW88 driver for the RTL8723DS does not work at all on the RockPI-S No error messages, but no radio either. The RTW88 driver also blocks the bluetooth radio as well. Reverting back to RTL's own driver, which is still in the patched tree, fixes all this. I'll be working with the RTW88 driver authors get their 8723DS driver working, but, my experience with the RTW88 driver for the USB bus version of this WiFi chip is that it uses significantly more CPU than RTL's driver. To cope with the ever expanding Linux kernel, this patch also includes overriding u-boot's value of fdt_addr_r in the RockPI-s boot.cmd script.
