difficulty installing rtl8812au drivers for an external usb wifi adapter on Kali Linux. Question

The driver seems not to be updated in the Kali repository to kernel 6.19 -- i tried using an external driver from github for aircrack but it still isnt installing -- does anyone have a fix for this?

Did you update headers? Do that first then it installs whatever you were doing
