Linux - Lemmy.World

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short). Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy. ### Rules * Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel.

Hi, I’ve been having issues with my network adapter on Bazzite OS. Both WIFI and Bluetooth do not work, and the the utility nmcli device confirms this. I used lspci to find my network controller, which is a `MEDIATEK Corp. MT7922 802.11ax PCI Express Wireless Network Adapter. I’m unsure how to proceed further. Thanks.

      I found that my kernel is 6.7. I followed along with the guide and placed the firmware files in the correct location. It doesn’t work. I’ll rebase to Kinoite for now, it has worked for me before. Thanks.

    I think you want to rebase to silverblue/kinoite can confirm this still happens. https://fedoramagazine.org/how-to-rebase-to-fedora-linux-39-on-silverblue/

    If this still happens, you might want to get a dongle or try a different distro. If not, you want to file a bug with Bazzite. I am not surprised they would break hardware, since their image is heavily modified, and probably should be a distro, not a image.

    If you want to try a different district: workstation, nobara, and pop_os could be good. nobara has most of the gaming stuff pre-installed, if you are into that.

    If you want Fedora Atomic with KDE, install Kinoite and test it (bazzite is experimental).

    Otherwise, install Pop_os! (Another gaming distro)

    Or buy a bluetooth adapter (10€)

      Thanks, I already knew about Kinoite, just doing some distrohopping. Guess I have to pick whats best for me. :)

    Hey everyone! I solved the problem! After a few hours of searching, I found that all I had to do was shut off my pc and then hold the power button for 30 seconds. Rebooted, and now it works. I feel stupid. XD

      This is not a fix though. This is some sleep related issue that even I faced in my laptop for the mt7922 wifi card. Ensure that fast boot is disabled in the bios. Also all the kernels since 6.2(I think¿?) have patched this issue so you should not be facing this issue now. I no longer face it.

      Edit : though in my case, it was only WiFi which was not working because the mt7922 kernel module was failing to load at startup. If this issue occurs again, post the output of journalctl so we can see what the exact issue is.
