...and it turns out the above is hopelessly busted and doesn't work.  Worse yet, it seems to work, but no wireless device will be able to connect.

There's a repository (old as it is) from gl-inet with source code (sort of): https://github.com/gl-inet/openwrt/tree/openwrt-19.07.7/package/kernel/rtl8192eu  But good luck modifying that for version 23.x (or later).

Use the GL.iNet v19.07.08 version of OpenWRT.  And then use updated packages (except for kernel stuff, so bluetooth would be hopeless for say btrtl.ko).  But it allows for newer versions of Pulse Audio, etc.

kmod-sound-core
 
kmod-input-core
 
Check and make sure the above items are coming from the 19.07.8 feed by downloading before installing (just a test)
 
==== Disk Tools ====
Install these from the 19.07.8 sources or they won't work.


This idea was tested by manually downloading .ipk files from OpenWRT, then installing them using the OPKG command (see below)  The result was a successful version of Python3 running on OpenWRT 19.07.8 (which comes with Python2);<syntaxhighlight lang="text">
==== SAMBA4 ====
Install from the 19.07.8 sources
 
Also, if you install from the GL.iNet interface, Samba 3.6 will be installed (woof).
