Benetti Engineering just took over Larry Finger(lwfinger)'s repository rtl8188eu since Larry unfortunately passed away[0](RIP) and there are pending PRs that will never be checked as stated here[1]. So basically move github user to benetti-engineering-sas and update version with latest that fixes build failure with Linux version 6.15. And let's drop local patches that are now upstreamed as well. Let's also drop obsolete Config.in informations since as stated here[2]: "This driver is under development and has a limited feature set. In particular it does not yet support 40MHz channels and power management". At the same time drop other suggestions like enabling CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT or "this package needs a firmware loading mechanism to load the binary blob for the chip to work" since they are now part of the package. And of course let's update package's URL due to the moving.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
