Hi. I have been trying to build the mainline on my laptop and have been facing a weird issue. I have been able to use WIFI on my linux-6.11.0-25-generic on my Ubuntu 24.04. However, on my newest build (linux-6.16.0-rc1), I can't use my WIFI. Secure boot is off. I have realized that kernels built with 'make defconfig' would simply not boot up after adding to grub. Therefore, I copied the .config from the generic and changed the following two configs: CONFIG_SYSTEM_ TRUSTED KEYS=”” CONFIG_SYSTEM_REVOCATION_KEYS="" They initially required .pem files, but the original .config will not compile as it created errors and were therefore modified. I also checked the bottom configs and they seemed to be set correctly. CONFIG_IWLWIFI=m CONFIG_IWLMVM=m Below are some additional information: - Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Device [8086:a840] (rev 10) - I was able to find my card (A840/00E4) in drv.c - When running 'lspci -nnk | grep -iA3 network', iwlwifi is NOT listed as a kernel driver. - Running 'sudo modprobe iwlwifi' does work Please let me know if there are ways to fix the issue. If given the guidance, I would be glad to work on it and write the necessary patches. Thank you. Best regards, Ryan Chung
