wifi driver installation error in linux kernel related to linux-lts

I installed two kernels in my Arch : linux and linux-lts .
When I boot with linux kernel and i'm going to install the Wi-Fi driver It gives me an error like this:

 
Error! Module version v5.2.2.4_25483.20171222 for 8188eu.ko.zst
is not newer than what is already found in kernel 5.15.67-1-lts (v5.3.9_28540.20180627).
You may override by specifying --force.

I did not boot with Linux-lts , Why does the driver installed on linux-lts affect on linux kernel ?
It was not fixed even by remowing linux-lts

And now i wanna to install 8188eu-aircrack-dkms-git package it gives me an error like this : 

Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n] 
Apply anyway? [n] 
Skipping patch.
1 out of 1 hunk ignored -- saving rejects to file os_dep/osdep_service.c.rej
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().
    Aborting...
 -> error making: 8188eu-aircrack-dkms-git

Re: wifi driver installation error in linux kernel related to linux-lts

r8188eu is in all current kernels and the second build fails on applying a patch (because likely the sources are too dated)
What problem do you actually want to solve?

The default driver in kernel does not activate monitor mode.i want to install the special driver for Airmon-ng : https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8188eus.
i blacklisted the default driver by : 

echo 'blacklist r8188eu'|sudo tee -a '/etc/modprobe.d/realtek.conf'

NOTE : I previously installed this driver when i was in linux-lts but now I can't install in linux kernel

Re: wifi driver installation error in linux kernel related to linux-lts

https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8188eus is not compatible with 5.19
Edit:
Note https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8188eus/pull/200 will not work for 5.19 or 5.19.1 but will work 5.19.2 despite linking to https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au/pull/992 which checks against 5.19.2 correctly the author changed it to check incorrectly for 5.19.0.

So I have to install on 5.15.67-1-lts.
But the next problem is that when i was in linux-lts version 5.15 :
- i remove installed drivers for this device
- i try installing this package from aur : 8188eu-aircrack-dkms-git
- error is :

EDIT : By restarting the system, the problem was solved and this package was installed, of course, on the LTS kernel : 5.15.67-1-lts

Re: wifi driver installation error in linux kernel related to linux-lts

The package failed to build,  so you could not install it,  so something else was loaded after you restarted the system.
Flag 8188eu-aircrack-dkms-git out of date.  Send the patches to upstream if you want.

Patch for 5.19 and 6.0 support.
