Kernel 5.15.0-69 breaks my wifi

Post by regexj »

I reported the bug on the launchpad site where you are taken to when you click "bug reports" for a kernel version.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... ug/2013186

The log of lspci-vnvn.log:

Essentially the latest kernel killed my wifi. I don't know why this is. I have reverted the Kernel back to -67 and told my update manager to ignore the latest kernel version and all is working again.

Reporting it here as well as I think this might be a Mint only kernel?

Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon
Cinnamon Version 5.2.7
Linux Kernel 5.15.0-67-generic (Note: that I am currently in the reverted kernel, the offending kernel is 5.15.0-69)
Processor AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor × 8
Memory 31.3 GiB
Hard Drives 10829.5 GB
Graphics Card NVIDIA Corporation GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti]

There are no Mint only kernels they are derived from Ubuntu kernel.
If I have helped you solve a problem, please add [SOLVED] to your first post title, it helps other users looking for help.

Ah right, I wasn't sure whether it was standard Ubuntu kernels or modified for Mint. Thanks for clarifying, good to know.

I just had this exact issue. Broken Wifi, bluetooth, ethernet, touchpad.
Reverting back to -.67 was the answer
