Zorin 18 beta driver for Realtek Bluetooth

Hardware Support
1

Hello, I've been using Zorin 17.3 Pro since its release.

Now I'm happy to have downloaded Zorin 18. Everything worked great except for one problem: My PC has a Realtek Bluetooth module. Zorin 18 doesn't have a driver for it. However, there is a suitable driver in Ubuntu. Zorin 18.3 does. How can I solve this problem in Zorin 18?

Have you identified the device in order to match the driver?

sudo lshw -C network

or

lspci -nn | grep Realtek

git clone https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce

cd rtl8821ce

chmod +x dkms-install.sh

sudo ./dkms-install.sh

This last part is necessary, so do not skip it...

sudo modprobe 8821ce
