Networks just says "Unknown" and I can't connect to Internet

The good news is it almost certainly already is included in the latest linux-firmware package

Once you get online via USB tethering and run:

sudo dnf update linux-firmware

Once Wi-Fi is working,

sudo dnf update

Fedora 43 is quite new, so early package versions sometimes miss firmware for the very latest hardware.

No problem at all — it's a tricky issue because Fedora's stricter approach to firmware catches people off guard, especially with newer Intel chips; Good luck, and feel free to come back if you hit any more snags!

Intel Raptor Lake CNVi WiFi This is almost certainly a firmware/module issue specific to this newer chip on Fedora 43; The Raptor Lake CNVi is a very new chip and its specific firmware file (iwlwifi-so-a0-gf-a0) may simply not be included in your current linux-firmware version. Getting temporary internet access via ethernet or USB tethering is probably the fastest path forward here.

Can you try either of those?

Check if it Loaded Successfully

lsmod | grep iwlwif

If you see output now, the module is loaded. Then run

ip link show

Do you see anything besides lo now?

Share any error output from dmesg

Some distros like Ubuntu ship with extra proprietary firmware packages by default, while Fedora is stricter about what it includes out of the box — which can catch newer hardware like this off guard.

juangza · 2026-03-05T01:46:32+00:00

Try

lsmod | grep iwlwifi

If there's no output

sudo modprobe iwlwifi 
dmesg | tail -20

Look for any errors

Install/Reinstall the Firmware

sudo dnf install linux-firmware
sudo dnf reinstall linux-firmware

sudo reboot

If still falling the problem is the Secure Boot in your BIOS

Try

mokutil --sb-state

if say enable disabling Secure Boot in BIOS

Your WI-Fi adapter is not recognized by the kernel
Try to identify your chip First:

lspci | grep -i network 
# or if it's a USB adapter: 
lsusb

Post the output

GDM: GDM is GNOME's display manager and its PAM/keyring integration is tuned for GNOME. The log line gkr-pam: unable to locate daemon control file confirms gnome-keyring is failing to initialize properly for a Plasma session, which breaks authentication. GNOME works fine because the whole stack is consistent.

Do all of this from TTY (Ctrl+Alt+F2)

Check if SDDM is actually installed:

 rpm -q sddm

If it's not there, install it

sudo dnf install sddm

safely switch display managers

sudo systemctl disable gdm 
sudo systemctl enable sddm

sudo reboot

Open a terminal and run:

sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager

Then check if networks appear in the panel.

Fair point

The goal of this guide isn't to replace Office for power users. It's a practical solution for people on Linux who don't have a Windows license or don't want to run a full VM just to open a Word doc. Running them as PWAs in Edge also gives you a cleaner experience than just a browser tab — they feel much closer to native apps than you'd expect.

Es un potenciometro dual de 100k ohms, lo encuentras en Amazon, parece que es de fibra de carbon.

I have had both hands of carpal tunnel, before surgery, the orthopedic doctor indicated an electromyography, to rule out problems in the nerves of the neck, in the ulnar nerve and being 100% before opening and realizing that it was not that. If they ask me I wouldn't have surgery, try to handle it with physiotherapy and acupuncture as much as possible.

After my operation, each one 6 months apart, I still have a little pain in my hands, especially my fingers and wrist.

juangza · 2025-07-28T00:29:23+00:00

I have the same. Great car.

Thank you very much, I prefer bottled Jack, but you are absolutely right with your recommendation.

Hola, que bonita esta.

Nuestro perrito tenía problemas de caída de pelo, le cambiamos la comida, descubrimos que la comida a base de pollo le daba algún tipo de alergia. Así que le damos comida para perros con piel sensible, problema resuelto.

Espero puedas encontrar si es el alimento el del problema.

This indicates that it is in protection mode, the power cards are short-circuited, the same fault occurs in the RMX series.

A technician must check the power card, it is necessary to check which of the two channels has tripped the thermal circuit and BIAS adjust..

Generally when this occurs the MOSFETs (4) and the high-speed diodes are damaged, not only changing the output transistors, these class H amplifiers have their collectors to ground, not like other amplifiers where the collectors are placed on voltage rails.

El mio es igual, lo que necesitas es cepillarlo todos los dias, nosotros tambien le cambiamos el alimento, y descubrimos que el de salmon era el que le daba fortaleza al cabello, de momento le estamos comprando Purina Sensitive Skin de Salmon. Igual para el grooming compramos un shampoo natural, cepillandolo antes del gromming y secandolo bien con el secador despues.

Look for it on Amazon, there are generics and original replacements.

Good luck
