rtw89_8852be: Unknown firmware header version 10 #320
Comments
There are a couple of things you need to do: 1. Install firmware file rtw8852b_fw-1.bin. Your system is too old to handle the latest formware. 2. There is a problem with the latest version on Ubuntu 20.04.6, which I installed. You need to do a 'git checkout 6dc9441' and build and install that version, which works on my Ubuntu installation. When I have time, I will try to sort out the problem and notify you when that happens. |
Hi thanks!
apart from copying it to
Unfortunately gives me the same
reboot and signing MOK procedure also tried reloading the module as well as disabling it in recovery mode, uninstalling it, newly installing it and reloading it. My OS is 20.04.6 as well. Is there something i missed or do you have other hints to try? Greetings! |
If it still does not work, then yu need to try the various options as your BIOS is certainly buggy. On my system, those steps resulted in a working wifi. |
Thanks for your help.
I appreciate your effort! Greetings! |
Updating the BIOS will not help. Those two families of laptops have a BIOS that handles the PCIe bus strangely, and they do not get along with the Realtek devices. Report this to linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org to see if Realtek has any fixes that I do not know about. |
Hi, @krausemann |
Hi @rtw89 unfortunately i have not resolved the issue. Didn't find time also to report the issue as suggested above. For now, i arranged with using good old ethernet cable. If you found a solution, let me know!

Hi, ***@***.***(https://github.com/krausemann)
I've faced the same issue on Lenovo Thinkbook 15 G4.
lwfinger's driver worked fine, but after installation Debian 12.5.0 it failed.
Have you resolved the problem with Realtek RTL8852BE?

One user has reported that updating to sid resolved their issues. It appears that Ubuntu 20.04.4 and some variants of Debian have problems in their user-space code. I am trying to resolve the Ubuntu issue. |
The 20240310 snapshot of `rtw89` does not work for 8852BE cards. Similar problems were reported upstream for older Ubuntu versions and as a fix it was suggested to move back to an older version. Although the kernel that Wifibox/Alpine uses is much more recent than one could find in Ubuntu 20.04, the same resolution still works. Based on that, chances are likely that the scope of the regression in the `rtw89` driver is wider than assumed. The proposed version was verified to be working, so go back to and stick to it until the issue is resolved in upstream. References: - lwfinger/rtw89#320 - lwfinger/rtw89#323

Hi!
I am new to compiling kernel modules and it is somehow exciting. For reasons i am stuck to using Ubuntu 20.04 with their kernel
5.15.0-83-generic
. Wifi module isRealtek RTL8852BE
on Lenovo Laptop. I followed the instruction inREADME.md
but i am stuck at this point. From taking a peek infw.c
, the version should be1
or0
. Can you help me to get it working? See below mykern.log
and what i have done so far.kind regards!
kern.log
during boot,
/var/log/kern.log
shows following error:What i have done so far:
Disable Fast Startup in Windows (dual boot)
It has been reported it can impact the availability of wifi chip. https://askubuntu.com/a/1303340
get vmlinux to get rid of
Skipping BTF generation
make
printedSkipping BTF generation [my module name] due to unavailabilty of vmlinux.
Since my ubuntu version seems to use different vmlinux location, i did the following to successfully compile:
download binary blobs to solve Direct firmware load
Kernel log gave error:
Direct firmware load for rtw89/rtw8852b_vw-1.bin failed with error -2
because my os does not ship the required binaries. As instructed inREADME
, i obtained them from git.kernel.org and copied them:sudo cp *.bin /lib/firmware/rtw89/
Arguments to fix issues with lenovo BIOS
as instructed in
README
i did following:sudo cp 70-rtw89.conf /etc/modprobe.d/
and reloaded the modules.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
