Hello community

I have (almost) ready mylaptop, but there are still a few details to fix... 
I've used an external driver for my RTL8821CE wifi 
(https://github.com/tomaspinho/rtl8821ce) but it is not loaded during the boot 
process. The generated module is "rtl8821ae.ko" (not "rtl8821ce.ko") but 
apparently it works fine (have to test it thoroughly).

When I first tried to load rtl8821CE the system said that could not be find at 
/lib/modules/5.8... so I searched for it manually and found rtl8821AE at 
/lib/modules/5.8.../kernel/drivers/net/wireless and loaded manually "modprobe 
rtl8821ae", then the wifi device appeared and worked.

My question is: How can I load automatically the driver? Perhaps the kernel 
detects RTL8821CE and expects for rtl8821ce.ko... Is there some way to load it 
explicitly maybe adding rtl8821ae.ko to a list of modules to load?

Thanks again for your help and patience
