Bug Description
Hi,
Just got a Thinkpad with Realtek 8852a wifi card. I installed Impish daily (kernel 5.13).
Not recognized.
The firmware is natively present in firmware folder, /rtw89/
But the kernel module is not loaded and in fact no module is loadable!
sudo modprobe rtw8[completion] does not return this wifi card's module.
So I did run for:
https:/
and it does work but needs to be done for each kernel upgrade...
Note that Bluetooth was natively ok.
I tried 5.14 Ubuntu kernel from unstable ppa but same issue.
