Description of problem: I fell down with this one. For various reasons I did not test any of the backported 5.18 kernels until now, so I did not see that the rtl8192eu module is not building with them. Also, I see elsewhere that Cauldron is, or soon will be, using a 5.19 series kernel. It might be an idea, if possible, to set dkms-rtl8192eu to build with that series, to save some work later. But that is just a suggestion.
