[RESPONDED] Yet more Mediatek issues on AMD/Linux

Framework Laptop 13 Linux
,
22

I’m on Linux 6.5.0-1016-oem and 24.04using the same network controller MT7922 with the kernel driver mt7921.

Symptoms:

  • WiFi suddenly dropped out and was now missing (along with bluetooth) in my settings
  • Restarting did nothing
  • sudo lshw -C network showed that it could still detect it however no driver was defined in the configuration attribute
  • sudo dmesg | grep mt7921e resulted in driver own failed failed with error -5

Fix
Removing the module in the reply above with modprobe -r mt7921e then loading it back with modprobe mt7921e made it work immediately. The commands in the steps above now show the driver and version. Thanks!
