I have a few wifi adapters from china who only work properly under Linux lmfao
Did Microsoft actually infiltrate Lemmy or something? I'm hearing of issues about Linux that haven't existed since the very first days of desktop Linux
The wifi chipset on my new MSI mobo isn't supported on current LTS version of Mint - I had to install a more recent kernel, so there are still issues with newer hardware
I still have wifi woes on my old tablet. Works fine for a few minutes, then dies. Works fine in Windows. I'm about to reinstall on it. Maybe the next distro I try will work?
This is probably some sort of firmware power management bug that the windows driver is working around. Try and see if you can find any documentation on it
Yeah, the Chinese stuff seems to work better under Linux... for some reason 😂. I one based on a Realtek chip (I think 🤔) and I couldn't get passed a few hundred KB in Windows. Linux fried that baby, it did 1.5MB 😂.
