(FIX) SV6051/P WIFI DRIVERS FOR ARMBIAN

[rayhanoriginal]

I was searching for WI-FI Drivers for my X96 Mini because I was using my device with Armbian ophub's build. The only-ethernet thing kinda annoyed me so dived in and found there's a fix. A guy named lukas-kuna found a fix for the WI-FI chip (HERE). So I tried the fix and It really worked. So I decided to create a driver myself for Future use and for my fellow users. I used the Driver on Armbian 26.08 Build by ophub and the kernel version is 6.18.37. I created a Github Repo so I could share how I did it and how you could do it too.

 

I Used DKMS to Automate the installation process, theres other ways to do it too. Also the DKMS method ensures driver doesn't disappear when switching to New or Different kernel.

Here's the GITHUB REPOSITORY : https://github.com/rayhanorigin/SV6051-SV6051P-WiFi-driver-for-Amlogic-S905W-X96-Mini-with-DKMS-support.

 

I'm Leaving the Driver File here as well. GOOD LUCK!

 

NOTE: I didn't try the driver on openwrt because I have no interest on that thing. You may try because ophub's kernels are compatible with his builds of openwrt as well.
