iwlwifi not loading in kernel Wi-Fi 6 AX210
by etcetera from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6G49V)
this is both in Oracle Linux and Ubuntu. latest-greatest.
I can see the wifi card but unable to activate it. Strangely I had it working on OL9.2 before, forgot what I did to make it work. The card works under Win10 so I know the hardware is good. There is no option to turn on wifi. It's as if it's not read into the kernel.
