Also see https://linux-hardware.org/ . It is a database of supported hardware.

I think it includes the minimum kernel version for support of a
particular chipset, once you drill in.

 If you are missing drivers or firmware then I recommend installing Debian 12 Bookworm. You can download the live installer from: https://get.debian.org/images/weekly-live-builds/amd64/iso-hybrid/ Debian 11 is old and does not work with the latest hardware without installing from debian backports which I do not recommend. Debian 12 is already frozen for release testing. I have been running Debian 12 for over a year now and only ran into one problem yesterday. I was having problems installing mariadb-server. I made a work around hack today and got it to install.
