Install Wifi Driver Realtek rtl8821ce

dude · April 12, 2025, 4:34am

Hello,

I have tried to install

OpenMandriva Lx version:

Rome 25.04 6.13.9-desktop-3omv2590

Desktop environment (KDE, LXQT…):

KDE v 6.3.4 / Framworks v 6.12.0

Description of the issue (screenshots if relevant):

The MaxMini B1 Plus mini pc is freezing as soon as a Wifi is connected. I tried to install the 3rd party driver of /tomaspinho/rtl8821ce from github and used the following cmd’s …

sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install dkms make kernel-devel -y
git clone github tomaspinho/rtl8821ce git (no links error msg of this forum platform)
sudo ./dkms-install.sh

after the error output listed below, I tried to update the header information as stated in the error output, but not with much success. Am I on a completly wrong track here? Am I using the right cmd’s, the right driver or is this Wifi hardware not supported?

Relevant informations (hardware involved, software version, logs or output…):

Please post your code as code

WilsonPhillips · April 12, 2025, 2:28pm

Welcome! We are glad to see you and we hope you will decide to make this your home.

That said,

That is how this started. At that point your system is broken. We could all get together and scratch our heads for a month and still not figure out how to fix it. OR you can start over from scratch with a clean install and not break it this time. This is the route I would take.

zeroability · April 12, 2025, 6:54pm

The git repo you specified is for an Arch package:

What may be of particular interest if you get the dkms module to build is the following entry:

If this is your first time actually building a module with dkms, you might want to understand how that works to address your issues with the build tree:

man dkms

While there is documentation that addresses a lot of the issues you brought up and it may contain code that works, there doesn’t appear to be a download for this card from the vendor:

https://www.realtek.com/Download/List?cate_id=669&menu_id=297

Given the age of the card, the vendor software, and the repo you are trying to use, please proceed with caution.

dude · April 13, 2025, 8:02am

Thanks a lot for the replies. I guess I was a bit naive with my limited knowledge base, but I used the driver sw with those cmd’s on Fedora, even though I just learned that the driver sw was only for Arch? Not that this would make any sense to me

WilsonPhillips · April 13, 2025, 10:40am

It’s O.K. To quote @rugyada OpenMandriva is not <your distro here.> OM is a unique distro. It is not based on anything else. It is also a rolling release. It requires different commands to manage the system. We never use sudo dnf update, but instead use this.

sudo dnf clean all ; dnf clean all ; sudo dnf distro-sync --refresh --allowerasing 2>&1| tee dsync2-log.txt

If you have flatpaks, then use this.

sudo dnf clean all ; dnf clean all ; sudo dnf distro-sync --refresh --allowerasing 2>&1| tee dsync2-log.txt ; flatpak update

I run that bottom command every single time. It also creates a log file in your ~/ folder that can help us diagnose when things go wrong.

zeroability · April 13, 2025, 6:50pm

Source code, is source code. The repo just may have certain nuances we may not apply. My main concern is the source of the code. Looking here, you can see it’s just downloading a fork of the Linux kernel, which should already be in the mainline (hopefully):

github.com

tomaspinho/rtl8821ce/blob/98cff1d7dcbf17b36a98bac342df75dfe0b79017/get_sources.sh

#!/bin/bash

## This script gets the driver sources from Endless OS and bootstraps this repository
## Make sure to run this (cwd) from the root of the repository 

git clone --depth=1 git@github.com:endlessm/linux.git

cp -r linux/drivers/net/wireless/rtl8821ce/* .

It seems like maybe, it didn’t:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi

I see an ae but not a ce. I would probably talk with @bero about getting it patched or added to our kernel build, but it may be easier to buy a more supported card given the age.

The link to the source directory for this card is also gone from the repo which could also be a cause for other errors:

This is basically what I mean by “proceed with caution.” The middle layer provider has not updated their project in a while, and the upstream has removed the link to the source code which will eventually break things.

uro · April 13, 2025, 7:32pm

The RTL8821CE driver is part of the RTW88 PCI-E Wireless driver merged into mainline in 2019 and is still actively maintained.

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw88/Kconfig#n173

Chances are looking at the kernel wireless docu and maybe a modprobe may be enough to get it working.

EDIT: I checked on my OMLx Rome machine and the RTW88 kernel driver modules are being built with the OMLx kernels.

WilsonPhillips · April 13, 2025, 8:35pm

I still say the best thing you could do is a fresh install and start over from scratch. Don’t use sudo dnf update ever again. Use this. Every time.

sudo dnf clean all ; dnf clean all ; sudo dnf distro-sync --refresh --allowerasing 2>&1| tee dsync2-log.txt

Get back to a good known base and then we can diagnose from there.

zeroability · April 13, 2025, 10:42pm

That should be enough for the card to work then. I don’t know if it was somehow blacklisted or what the issue is. I would suggest a manual modprobe to confirm.

dude · April 15, 2025, 7:29am

Again thanks a lot for all the replies. If I understand it correctly, I broke it even before I tried to install it by using the wrong update cmd. I can’t claim to understand a lot of the points made above, but I know I can’t change the wifi card since it is a compact mini-pc. I will reinstall the OpenMandrivaLx.rolling-slim-plasma6x11.x86_64.iso and will start with the correct system update cmd. But from there I am not sure what steps are needed to get it installed without breaking it. If there is any chance to get the correct cmd’s to install the Realtek rtl8821ce wifi driver I would love to use this distro sympatico.

WilsonPhillips · April 15, 2025, 11:36am

@dude Please, do not take this the wrong way. I only want to help. I want to see you succeed.

OpenMandriva is a unique rolling-release distro, unlike any other. It must be approached as such.

We do not use the update command. Ever. It will break your system. Being based on snapshots, we use the following command to Distro-Sync to the latest snapshot. Please use this command each and every time.

sudo dnf clean all ; dnf clean all ; sudo dnf distro-sync --refresh --allowerasing 2>&1| tee dsync2-log.txt

This will also create a log file in ~/ that we can use to help you diagnose if something does go wrong.

So, wipe it out and start over.

sez11a · April 15, 2025, 3:03pm

Just a suggestion; I wonder if it would be helpful to simplify the distro-sync command into a .bashrc alias that’s installed by default? The command is long and not super-easy to memorize, and people come into OM and say “Oh, it has dnf! I know how to use that! Awesome!”

I would suggest maybe using the urpmi wrapper I saw in the repo (ah, memories of Mandriva, but I haven’t used it for so long I was afraid to install it) to provide a proper, simple CLI update command, or creating an alias that simplifies the dnf distro-sync command.

WilsonPhillips · April 15, 2025, 3:28pm

I use this. It updates my flatpaks at the same time.

alias dsync="sudo dnf clean all ; dnf clean all ; sudo dnf distro-sync --refresh --allowerasing 2>&1| tee dsync2-log.txt ; flatpak update" # dnf updates for ROME

sez11a · April 15, 2025, 6:53pm

Now that is a beautiful thing. Thank you! The distro should have that or something like it in there by default.

dude · April 16, 2025, 8:43am

Thanks. I noted that I am up to date now with the proper update cmd. I don’t have a problem with it at all. But back to my install issue: how am I supposed to install this wifi driver on a clean system in the proper way? Are the other cmd’s I used OK? If not, what should I use instead? If this driver is only for Arch (and maybe Fedora) systems, is there an alternative source?

WilsonPhillips · April 16, 2025, 10:34am

I am thrilled that you got it reloaded and it is running again. As far as installing the drivers for the WiFi, nothing should change. The big thing here is the dsync.

dude · April 17, 2025, 3:11am

The system is again freezing when the Wifi is connected. It comes up with the linux header msg again. I noticed that the installed kernel is v6.15 … but the header file is v6.14 …?! Below the information I thought might be helpful. Any idea what is missing?
