Hi all, I'm quite new on crux and I'm stuck on a stupid question. I want to use my wifi device, but I can't figure out where to find firmwares.

You could install contrib/linux-firmware and reboot/reload the modules. That should take care of it

My network controller is a Realtek RTL8188CE, so I need rtlwifi/rtl8192cfw.bin.

I compiled the kernel with the support of this device.

Do I have to get it directly from here [1] ?
