Hello everyone,
I have problem with driver Realtek8822be.
I saw other issues similar to mine but still I have no wifi so I decided to write this post.
Before I was using Garuda and my wifi was working perfectly.
When I was installing Garuda the installer did not ask me to install Realtek driver or anything and I guess it did other time I installed it. So when I run system I have no wifi (no wifi settings either) .
What I did is :
sudo pacman -S rtw88-dkms-git and reboot with no result.. I am not very advanced in computers so I would appreciate some help with that.. I have to add that Bluetooth works fine.
Here is some output that would help:
dsmeg (I will post red flags):
