I have a usb wifi adapter that I would like to get working on nixos. It has the driver source code available here. I’m not all that linux savy - I can get as far as
make[1]: *** /lib/modules/5.4.107/build: No such file or directory.
I’ve never worked with buildFHSUserEnv before but I realize that could be an option. I tried using it in its most basic form but that wasn’t enough. Any help would really be appreciated.
I will take a more detailed look tomorrow, but as far as I know, you will need to create a custom nix derivation for it (this would allow to recompile it with just a copy of your configuration file, and automatic recompilation when linux update). I’ll try to see what I can do based on already packaged driver like the 8821ce that I’m currently using.
@marius851000@NobbZ I tried both of your suggestions but no luck. The lights on the adapter don’t even light up when I plug it into my linux machine. I’m not sure exactly what that means but I thought it was something worth noting.
