Getting wifi working and sound

[Chinupmaboy]

I’m not so worried about sound at the moment as internet isn’t working and I want to address that first. Plus I think the approach might be similar.

I bought a galaxy book 2 recently and I have tried to get porteus working from a fat32 formatted pendrive.
It launches fine but no networks appear.

Dmesg|grep firmware reveals that several ucode firmware’s were attempted to load and failed. The error directs me to check git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git but I don’t know what to do once I get there

I have visited the galaxy book 2 page on Reddit looking for Linux drivers for the wifi which is intel wifi6e ax211. People on Reddit say it works with kernel 5.14. We are on 5.18 so I assume that should work.

I have seen elsewhere on the forum that building a new kernel from source has helped others with wifi driver issues but that’s a bit above me. Also, the tool made to do that only works on a Linux formatted drive according to the page.

I have also seen some discussion of taking a set of drivers in a tar.gz and turning into a module and somehow that will just fix it.

I really don’t understand what could be wrong. I would appreciate if someone could give me insight into why the wifi and sound don’t work, a fix is appreciated but I would also really like to know how I might go thru solving the problem if I were to encounter it again. And why it happens in the first place.

What is the result of dmesg | grep firmware?

Hi Chinupmaboy.
Need to know what kind of ucode is needed for your Intel AX211 6e card.
Can you share log of these commands:

Code: Select all

su
toor
lspci -knn
dmesg | egrep 'ucode|firmware|fail|error|wifi'

?

Download your ucode here https://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/BLF ... -firmware/ and make a module (path for example /lib/firmware/here-is-your.ucode) then reboot

Of course you can use kernel-firmware-20220725_150864a-noarch-1.xzm with a big size.

How do I make a module out of that?
Can you help me understand why it doesnt work in the first place?
How does one read the logs above? is there a guidance on that somewhere?
man pages are more confusing than helpful, maybe a layman's tutorial?

I am really confused why an intel wifi card woud have a problem on a modern kernel in the first place. Please help me understand.

thank you, but what do I do with it once I download it?
why wasnt it included in the first place?
"D:\porteus\rootcopy\lib\firmware\iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0-73.ucode"
I had previously dropped that file here and it didnt do anything.

Sorry, *71.ucode not *73.ucode
also download the file iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0.pnvm

See the 2nd link I posted. (I was editing my posting while you posted apparently.)

The Porteus kernel doesn't include a Intel wifi driver.

I am really confused why an intel wifi card woud have a problem on a modern kernel in the first place. Please help me understand.

It wasn't thought the Intel wifi chip was that popular at the time and to add all of them would double the size of Porteus. To make a module to add it isn't that hard to do. As for the code in the 2nd link I posted I recommend you change the "63" to "72", it's newer and it should work for you.

How does one read the logs above? is there a guidance on that somewhere?

Look for the lines that have "iwlwifi" and "ucode failed with error -2" in them, they are the wifi drivers the system is looking for to support your hardware and it failed to find them. For me I have:

The highest ucode listed in your dmesg is 72.

Chinupmaboy, thanks for the logs.
Well, copy kernel-firmware-20220725_150864a-noarch-1.xzm to modules folder and reboot. Test your wifi, if wifi is work, open terminal and run this command again

hi sharo take a look at this link:
https://www.linuxquestions.org/question ... 175709191/
at the end of this tread there is a link to the intel sof-firmware that seem you need for audio on your dell read the tread and copy the driver into the intel firmware directory and try if work for you.
