I have a new Asus Vivobook S 16 Flip, with kubuntu installed. Here is the output of uname -r
Code:
5.15.0-79-generic
Usually I have been lucky getting wifi to work on new laptops. Not this time.
Code:
lspci | grep Network
02:00.0 Network controller: MEDIATEK Corp. Device 7902
A google search for "linux MEDIATEK wifi 7902" leads to various forum discussions within the past few months, such as this one https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxmint/c...ver/?rdt=41023, all of which indicate that no driver is known. I then tried getting a usb wifi adapter. It also is not working. Here is the output of lsusb
Code:

And the output of dmesg | grep usb

A google search turned up this website: https://superuser.com/questions/1685...6-wifi-adapter. One of the comments lead to this github repository:
https://github.com/s-2/RTL8852AU_WiF...ee886.20210714, but make results in the following error:
Code:
fatal error: net/ipx.h: No such file or directory
20 | #include <net/ipx.h>
A google search for that error leads to a github issue with a different Realtek driver, https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8188eus/issues/150. I guess I could post an issue on the other driver, but I'm not even confident it is the one that I need. Further google searches also led to the repo ppa:kelebek333/kablosuz, which I added with apt. At this point, I need to figure out if these is an uptodate driver for this Asus USB wifi adapter. If there is not, then I will need to return it. Does anyone recognize this device? Thank you.
