Description of problem: I cannot see a list of networks or connect to wifi on kernel 5.2.5 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Linux Kernel 5.2.5 How reproducible: everytime I login on that kernel Steps to Reproduce: 1. turn on computer 2. login to desktop 3. click network manager icon in the system tray Actual results: no networks listed Expected results: can select wifi connection from dropdown and automatically connects to home network Additional info: Device: Lenovo e485 Wifi chip: realtek RTL8822BE works in kernel 5.1.x on fedora 30
Created attachment 1601770 [details] output of lsmod for kernel 5.1.20
Created attachment 1601771 [details] output of lsmod for kernel 5.2.5
based on the attached output from lsmod it looks like drivers changed from rtw88 and rtwpci from r8822be.
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11065631/ This patch fixes it for me The previous r8822be driver used msi interupts, the patch above implements them for rtwpci Card is assigned irq 16 on my laptop (asus gl702zc) but that irq never fires, i its either misconfigured by the bios or outright broken in the card. either way msi works
Thank you for the advice Andrew I will swapped the card with an intel card I had laying around I will test the reltek card on my desktop tomorrow
