    Wireless is not working

    Hello,


    I recently tried to install Linux Mint Cinnamon on my PC (B760M GAMING PLUS WIFI DDR4) using a dual boot with Windows 11. The Wi-Fi works normally on Windows, but on Linux, no Wi-Fi connection option appears in the Network Configuration. I attempted to install the rtw89 driver from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89, but after rebooting, nothing seems to have changed.


    Here is my wireless info script:

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.


    Cheers.

    Moved to Mint
    try
    Code:
    cd rtw89 && sudo make uninstall
    Then reboot and run the wireless script again

    Re: Wireless is not working

    I've successfully removed the files and rebooted, but nothing changed. I also ran the 'locate' command again and found that the compressed files are still there.

    Re: Wireless is not working

    Do the wireless script again and post results, the compressed ones should be the kernel modules and they should work fine
