over the last while, i have been using your rtw8852be linux driver
which started working again...
following an update to your driver on github, your driver started
acting wonky again
by that i mean it did the same as it did before your revert in the
makefile, require a virtual connection/hotspot(kde) to be made in
order to show networks, let along connect
previously this also made it extremely inconsistent, but now it just
seems to work fine, i just have to make the virtual connection thing
happen.
i am using endeavors on arch 5.19.9 and did a git pull following the
update, and also have a backup of the previous perfectly functioning
version, if this is important

I have a laptop with a rtw8852be wifi card, and i was using your
driver to get wifi on my system, come an update, I was required to
redo the installation in order to have it again. however, when doing
sudo make install,
make -C /lib/modules/5.19.2-arch1-1/build M=/home/bommy/rtw8852be modules
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/lib/modules/5.19.2-arch1-1/build'
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/lib/modules/5.19.2-arch1-1/build'
make -C /lib/modules/5.19.2-arch1-1/build M=/home/bommy/rtw8852be modules

make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/lib/modules/5.19.2-arch1-1/build'
cp: cannot stat 'rtl8852au*.bin': No such file or directory
this is the only logging that is produced, doing sudo make install -B
when i do a B flag
[bommy@bommy-laptop rtw8852be]$ sudo make install -B
make -C /lib/modules/5.19.2-arch1-1/build M=/home/bommy/rtw8852be modules

That was my mistake. I removed the BT firmware from rtw89 as it belongs in the
rtw89-BT repo that I also maintain, but I forgot the copy in the Makefile.
Do a 'git pull' and 'sudo make install' again. It will now work.
As to the error you get when loading a module. That usually means that your
kernel headers do not match your running kernel, but you need to look at the
output of the dmesg command to tell for sure.
