Hi yall, Im new to openSUSE and linux in general, I went through the installation via usb and skipped the network stuff since it didnt detect wifi and tought I could fix it after the install, turns out I cant, so im asking for your help, for refference I have a Vivobook 16X M3604YA-MB108W, and installed using the offline image via usb using balenaetcher, once I got to network activation nothing showed so I just skipped it.
also i have to add that currently dont have acces to etherent, since i dont have a ethernet port, and dont have a ethernet adapter
Hello and Welcome.
We need the Wlan Hardware to say, if it is supported by the kernel.
so please post:
/sbin/lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 net
Yiann@localhost:~> /sbin/lspci -nnk | grep -iA5 net
01:00.0 Network controller [0280]: MEDIATEK Corp. Device [14c3:7902]
Subsystem: AzureWave Device [1a3b:5520]
02:00.0 Non-Volatile memory controller [0108]: Micron Technology Inc 2400 NVMe SSD (DRAM-less) [1344:5413] (rev 03)
Subsystem: Micron Technology Inc Device [1344:1100]
Kernel driver in use: nvme
Kernel modules: nvme
This one is not supported by linux kernel.
Best is to buy a cheap new USB-Wlan Stick.
damm, thats sad, thx for the info!
It is as it is.
There is a git Repo, which maybe can help, but best is to buy a new one.
It’s easy to swap the Wi-Fi card to one with with Linux support. There’s videos if you need help. Your Bluetooth probably isn’t working either.
This is much better than a dongle and will fix your Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
See the comments here about replacing it with an Intel AX210NGW. Scroll down.
thx for both of the comments, ended up with a dongle, will eventually swap my wifi card, i ended up reinstalling the OS after buying the dongle but ended up with a tiny problem wich is that my bootloader shows the options in the image
the problem was that it was defaulting to the 20251217 but when it tried to boot to that it ends up taking ages and then throws this error on the screen:
Warning: /dev/disk/by-uuid/6870b374-75a5-45bc-b888-435fff54fb5
then it put me on some sort of terminal that i had to poweroff my laptop to get out off
i tried following cgpt advise and did the following
recompiling grub2, that didnt work
sudo snapper list, that dsnt seem to show the entry
lsblk -f, seems to show only 1 install
rpm -qa | grep kernel-default, shows only the working one
ls -l /boot | grep 6.18.1, shows nothing,
any thoughts?
