Unterschiede: Beschreibung
It should work with any more current kernel and free modules (Tested with Trisquel and linux-libre):
pre-requisite: get a current GCC/G++ version, the system-shipped one is likely too old (I've used GCC 9.2 as the kernel was built with GCC 9.3)
steps to install:
[code]
# common pre-requisites
sudo apt install built-essentials git
# in any case you need the headers matching your kernel,
# I highly suggest to use linux libre as follows
sudo apt linux-libre linux-libre-headers
# WiFi
git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtlwifi_new.git -b extended
cd rtlwifi_new
make CC=gcc-9 CXX=g++9 && sudo make CC=gcc-9 CXX=g++9 install
cd ..
# Bluetooth
git clone https://github.com/lwfinger/rtl8723au_bt.git -b kernel
cd rtl8723au_bt
make CC=gcc-9 CXX=g++9 && sudo make CC=gcc-9 CXX=g++9 install
# common bluetooth packages
sudo apt bluetooth bluez bluez-tools blueman
[/code]
[del]Previous description about Trisquel: Parabola/Linux-libre:
Worked on Parabola/Linux-libre, Worked, module was loaded without the firmware blob and it just worked. In the module source the path to firmware binary can be dummy. It only takes a bit longer to connect/search. Needs adaptation in source.

Non-free firmware is required, see https://wiki.debian.org/rtl819x[/del]
