error compiling on linux-headers-4.2.0-19-generic about rtl8723au_bt

[lwfinger]

That is only the top-level error from make. It only says that something happened earlier. Without the previous messages, there is nothing I can fix.

Be aware that Ubuntu messes with driver APIs in a method that I refuse to support as that makes building on Ubuntu different than other distros. If that is the reason for your problem, you will be on your own. Sorry.

thanks for your reply. i only wanted to contribute. I have a general problem on my laptop with the original drivers. Bluetooth only connects like a headphone with my phone and wireless is only connecting for webservices but fileservices like nfs ssh ecc don't work. only for your knowledge
i'm on an lenovo g50-70 and before upgrading i used your drivers always and they worked perfect.

I hope this helps for your work. Thanks

It tells me what is wrong. For kernel 4.2, you need to use the kernel branch. The code in the other branches is for older kernels. As the kernel driver now works, there is no need to port those older branches.

ok . thanks for your work.
