Started with Ubuntu few months ago. My HW is in older machines too slow to handle Windows, so Ubuntu 19.04 was right solution. I'm not so familiar with Ubuntu, but I see necessity of compiling drivers in some cases.

This specific error I now have in my laptop Acer Aspire One 725-C62kk - running Kernel 5.3.0-23-generic . For my USB-WiFi I use rtl8822bu driver (modified that it can handle my ASUS AC-53 Nano dual band USB-dongel) - the advice I took from Internet. Worked well so far.

Normally after kernel-updates, this driver must be re-maked with following commands and it works :

make
sudo make install
sudo modprobe 8822bu

Now after 19.10 update, it doesn't.

During make, I get following results (after make clean, of course):

Former I used advice from this_thread .. that helped before update 19.10

Please try this process instead. It builds, albeit with a few possibly harmless warnings, on my 19.10 system.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install dkms git
git clone https://github.com/cilynx/rtl88x2BU_WiFi_linux_v5.3.1_27678.20180430_COEX20180427-5959
sudo dkms add ./rtl88x2BU_WiFi_linux_v5.3.1_27678.20180430_COEX20180427-5959
sudo dkms install -m rtl88x2bu -v 5.3.1
sudo modprobe -r rtl8812au
sudo modprobe 88x2bu

Your wireless should now be working.
