I'm just posting this here in case someone is interested. I've managed to successfully install Ubuntu 20.04 LTS with the Wi-Fi adapter working on the T6. The trick is to install the operating system first, then download and use this driver:

I had success following the "without DKMS" steps.

Nice job! Have you tested all hardware, like Bluetooth? The GUI works properly, too?

Absolutely. If I may quote from Ubuntu's slogan, everything just works. The WiFi adapter was the single thing that didn't work out of the box, but with the correct driver, the system is now 100% working.

Re: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Does your mouse cursor gets stuttery/stuck in the upper left corner? I had this issue with many linux distros, I really liked Elementary OS but it was too annoying and I couldn't take it anymore and reinstalled Windows 10 even tho it makes the PC barely usable.

Hello, thank you for your information. WiFi works fine with debian 11.
Do you also have a solution for this driver problem?

Re: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
I suspect upgrading to Linux Kernel 6.2 would solve this problem. Of course, before upgrading Linux Kernel, always do a backup first.alexon wrote: ↑Sat Mar 18, 2023 10:15 am Hello, thank you for your information. WiFi works fine with debian 11.

Re: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
If you are on Ubuntu, you can do `dist upgrade` to upgrade to the newest kernel. You can google "how to upgrade ubuntu linux kernel" to learn more about it.alexon wrote: ↑Sun Mar 19, 2023 7:15 amOh nice, what source did you get the kernel from?dd_milkshake wrote: ↑Sat Mar 18, 2023 7:26 pm I suspect upgrading to Linux Kernel 6.2 would solve this problem.
