Bluetooth does not work because of update

hello. my laptop has not had functioning bluetooth since may 16.
Every time i go back to the snapshot i perfomed that day, bluetooth comes back online . But every time i update my system, from there, the problem reappers. this suggests my hardware is fine and the problem is with opensuse tumebleweed.

My desktop is gnome and my laptop is :
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14AMN8

Gnome shows the bluetooth symbol crossed out

Mediatek chip? Known issue. Will be fixed with next kernel-default-7.0.10

-could you please tell me how to check what wireless chip i have?

You can use as example
inxi -E

This “fix” does not help as your issue is unrelated to the Mediatek issue. Please read the threads and the bugreport. There is nothing what can be done on user side beside waiting for the next kernel 7.0.10 which will fix the problem.

You have been told multiple times that the issues with mediatek chips is a kernel bug and require an updated kernel.

Stop posting this until you know the person experiencing issues is not running a mediatek bluetooth chip.

I saw no reference to the mediatek chip in the original post.

I’ll withdraw my fix.

Why didn’t someone just say that:

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 14AMN8 contains mediatek chip that is a known issue.

I see nothing like that anywhere. That would have eliminated this confusion generated from trying to be helpful.

To combine these statements, one needs some overview over actual bugreports and forum threads. But then it clears up…

=> Broken since kernel 7.0.7

https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1265457

if have tried a “zypper dup”
So it should upgrade from openSUSE Tumbleweed 20260504-0 → 20260525-0
but still getting kernel-default-7.0.9-2.1

If I look into the software.opensuse.org for Tumbleweedthere is already a Version 7.0.10.

That confuses me…

Kernel 7.0.10 is in snapshot 20260526 currently testing in openQA, see Tumbleweed/diff/20260526
So the Factory package you see in software.o.o may or may not still have problems.

20260526 was not released. 7.0.10 is in 20260527, which was released.
