Realtek Wifi 8822ce Kali Linux driver help

Kali is not intended for normal desktop usage, you are better of using a distribution such as Ubuntu or Mint for desktop usage.

Then do try this first.
Code:
sudo apt-get install linux-image-5.10.0-kali3-amd64 linux-headers-5.10.0-kali3-amd64 bc git
Then reboot, log back into your system and continue from step 4 in my previous post.

Maybe thats right.
I´m going into pentesting.
You should learn the basics of how to operate the system you are using before even touching any pen-testing tools.

Did went until step 9.

"sudo: dkms: command not found"
 
Install dkms and then try it from step 9 again.
Code:
sudo apt-get install dkms
 
I didn't read your first post because I only jumped in half way into the topic, I just read your first post and saw that you have Kali installed in a virtual machine. From your virtualization software you are going to have to assign the wireless network interface to your virtual machine before your virtual machine can see it and it can't be in use by your host machine.
Checked again with "ip addr" but still no eth1 Realtek device
ethX are only used for ethernet interfaces not for wireless interfaces, wireless interfaces will usually have a name like wlan0, wlp1s0 or wlp2s0..etc.

So using a wireless network card will be not possible in a vm?

Therefore I need to get a second usb plug in wireless network adapter to get to run it in a vm?

But how does the vm get internet connecntion?

The vm currently has an internet connection because it has a virtual network adapter which NAT's the traffic, you can't use that virtual network adapter for what you are wanting to do with Kali. You can buy a usb wifi adapter for your system and assign that to your vm for Kali and it needs to support monitor mode for what you are probably wanting to do: link1 link2

Yes thats what I wanted.

I thought I could connect my realtek wireless card to my kali linux vm to try/check if it got monitor mode and use it without buying a second wireless adapter.
 
Yes, I checked it. Still want to got directly to kali linux. I just do not have so much time to learn everything from the beginning :)
I´m pretty sure I will do it.

I tried to select in the vm´s interface my realtek network card, but there is no such option.
Only:

"NAT
Network Bridge
Intern negtwork
Host Only Adapter
Generic Driver
Nat network
Cloud Network"

I don't use Virtualbox so no idea how it works there. I think @KGIII runs Virtualbox will be able to answer that question better than me.
 
You'll need to look into what's called "VirtualBox USB passthrough". That's something I've never needed to learn, but there are a ton of search results. Just search for that exact phrase.

Its not about USB.

its about using the hosts network card on the VM.

You can't do this if you want to use the use the wireless interface for scanning or monitoring with Kali tools you need it to show up as a wireless interface on your vm. The only way to do this is to assign a dedicated wireless interface to the vm and this wireless interface can't be in use by the host. The way to do this is through "VirtualBox USB Pass through" as @KGIII already said.

Hi, after tired of searching in Google about solutions to install and keep running usb wifi dongle ralink 2870/3070 in Kali linux, I decided to ask for help... I use Kali linux since 2016, and till now without problems to install drivers to use external usb wifi "like" alfa wifi adapter(its not an original one).
See the pics and help me if you can. Thank you. God bless you.
