• Kde New update broke everything

  I have been able to solve it, it was linked to the wifi antena's driver. It may not be the same situation as you, but just in case it may help: - I was using the rtl88x2bu-dkms-git driver (AUR package) - this driver seem to have issues after the latest kernel update (https://github.com/RinCat/RTL88x2BU-Linux-Driver/issues/219) - however, this driver was not needed anymore to make my antenna (TP-Link Archer T3U Plus) work, so as a workaround I just removed it. - I still encounter some issues (like may need to unplug/replug the antena at boot), but everything works again ^^

• realtek usb wifi worked during Tumbleweed install. After reboot, lsmod shows it has rtw88_8822bu loaded, there is no /dev/ file for wifi, that disappeared, and the file under /sys/class/net/..../long-thingy-name doesn't have any match under /dev/ either. Firmware 20230427-1.1 is installed. Help.

  I have similar issues and even the poweroff button is same. You are on the wrong place with this. I have found working rtl88x2bu here https://github.com/RinCat/RTL88x2BU-Linux-Driver and it works until 6.2 kernel. Maybe it will work with your device. I am too lazy to read all of this now.

• How to check if I'm using the standard wi-fi driver intergrated in the recent 6.2 kernel release?
  1 project | /r/Fedora | 22 Mar 2023

  I've been using rincat wi-fi 88x2bu driver for my TP-Link Archer usb wi-fi card. I found out that the 6.2 core will have that driver be default. After I updated everything I unistalled the rincat driver and wi-fi still works, but I'm not sure that I unistalled it correctly. How can I check that my wi-fi runs on the default driver?

  I'd genuinely just like to pay for something that offers decent performance, without waiting half an hour to download a couple of gigabytes of your files.. I'm running this driver for my Realtek Archer dongle.

  The one from RinCat is the driver I use and it supports the latest kernels. I recommend compiling it with dkms, so you don't need to do it for every kernel update.
