Q: faustus module is no longer getting compiled in kernel version 6.1 or above

A: Official faustus module is no longer supported in kernel 6.1 or above. A workaround to fix the compilation issue is added in this fork. Either try to compile it manually or use the default faustus repo provided in the aurora faustus setup

Q: My kernel version is 6.1 (or above). Why aurora is choosing faustus mode?

A: Inorder for aurora to choose mainline mode, asus-nb-wmi should be enabled. You may have disabled it for some reason in the past, so enable it manually after reverting the changes you made while you disabled it.

To enable asus-nb-wmi

sudo modprobe asus-wmi
sudo modprobe asus-nb-wmi

Also make sure asus-nb-wmi isnt blacklisted. check inside /etc/modprobe.d/

Q: faustus module is disabled but can still be accessed / error while disabling faustus

A: install faustus using this fork

sudo depmod
sudo modprobe -r faustus

blacklist the module

printf "blacklist faustus" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/faustus.conf
