While a skeleton version of that file is present, it does not seem to be a complete driver (in 6.2 it's already 'fuller'), but more importantly, in the Kconfig file there is no RTW89_8852BE, so it can't be enabled in Debian's 6.1 kernel. > > I have got it working using a DKMS built from these instructions: > > https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89 > > > > (and packaged firmware-realtek) > > > > Will this driver make its way into a bookworm kernel at some point, No, but the DKMS built saw a recent improvement :-) > > or do I need to submit a wishlist bug for this, or is there some > > other procedure? To get it enabled for *Trixie*, filing a wishlist bug seems appropriate. > Surely it would be wise to enable RTW89_8852BE and RTW89_8852CE for > bookworm. Salvatore, what's your take on this? I can commit some time to > work on this. The RTW89_8852CE module is available in the 6.1 Kconfig file, so it _could_ be enabled, but whether that's useful without an explicit request is another Q.
