Packages not found: kernel-devel-6.12.8-201.bazzite.fc41.x86_64
So I have the TP-Link AXE5400 usb wifi dongle. It uses a RTL8852c chipset.
There are instructions on how to compile the drivers here (https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw8852cu/issues/17) and I could follow some instructions, but at the step to "MAKE", I get errors.
The errors seems to be related to my computer missing the "kernel-devel" package and when I do "sudo dnf install kernel-devel-$(uname -r)", I get the error in title.
Is there a way for me to fix this?
Additionnal details :
- The latest version of Bazzite (bazzite-nvidia-open). Downloaded and installed yesterday.
- Not sure what detail I should add. Ask away.
Thanks!

I'm not sure if you can actually install custom drivers in Bazzite without making your own image.
WELL THEN.
How is that so? I don't understand how that would be blocked? Can't I just get the correct kernel-devel and just follow the instructions? I'm confused.
dkms is not supported in atomic fedora, you need akmod, look at https://github.com/ublue-os/akmods for example

I have no idea how to use that.
Sadly, another disappointing foray into Linux gaming. I'm just not willing to go that far just to get my wifi card working. Keep being awesome y'all! 🙂
