On Ubuntu 20.04 (development branch), as of today, Additional Drivers (software-properties-gtk 0.98.6) reports that the device "Intel Corporation: Wireless-AC 9260" is not working, and suggests using a manually installed driver (cf. screenshot).
However the device is working correctly:
* lsmod | grep iwlwifi, lspci -v, lshw, dmesg | grep iwlwifi all show
that its driver iwlwifi is in use
* ls /lib/firmware/*9260* show that the appropriate firmware files are present
And I am indeed writing this bug report connected to an ac (5 GHz) wifi network, where I can verify a ~130-160 Mbps download speed, so software-properties-gtk shouldn't report the device as not working and suggest manually installing a driver. Not sure why it says so?
