Availability for v22

Asked by Jonathan Hayes

This works for v20.04 but even though v22 picks up the intel wifi for the 440 G8 hardware, the wifi system is "DISABLED" and shows an I/O error when trying to get it to come up. As shown below, the hardware shows but bringing it up shows "RTNETLINK...input/output error". I can boot into v20 and everything works. Tried installing the .deb and it shows in the software sources under additional drivers but it won't let me click "Apply" as it is greyed out.

Thanks for your time and effort on this.

I suggest that you follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WirelessTroubleshootingProcedure for diagnostic purposes.

What do you call v20 and v22?
All Ubuntu release numbers have four digits, because there are two releases each year and you have to distinguish between them.
So please don't truncate the release numbers but provide them in full, e.g. 20.04, 21.10, 22.04, 22.10 etc.

Remark: maybe Bug #1966793

Just wanted you to know that v20.04 and v22.04 failed iwlwifi (AX201) on 440 G8 were both fixed by switching from the latest firmware BACK to 55 as shown below on two separate boots:

- configuration: broadcast=yes driver=iwlwifi driverversion=5.15.0-27-generic firmware=66.f1c864e0.0 QuZ-a0-jf-b0-66.u latency=0 link=no multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11
+ configuration: broadcast=yes driver=iwlwifi driverversion=5.15.0-28-generic firmware=55.d9698065.0 QuZ-a0-jf-b0-55.u ip=192.168.247.110 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11

Note: I also tried the latest 71 and that failed too. So between 55 and 66 something broke this hardware.

Hope this helps. Thanks for your efforts.
