- bookworm has 6.1.99-1 and bookworm-backports has 6.9.7-1~bpo12+1: amd64, so I tried the upgrade
- I had a new set of iwlwifi file errors in `dmesg` (iwlwifi-ma-b0-gf4-a0-*), and figured out they were available in trixie https://packages.debian.org/trixie/all/ ... i/filelist
- so I upgraded to trixie and everything works as expected.
Hello!

I have a NUC14 with AX211 wifi. I followed the quoted instructions and upgraded the kernel from bookwom backport to ver. 6.10. I then took iwlwifi-firmware from trixie and the required files were found. But now, I'm having Not valid error log pointer 0x0024B5C0 for RT uCode when loading the iwlwifi module. I see the issue is discussed here https://community.intel.com/t5/Wireless ... -p/1608808 and it says there that the issue has been fixed in kernel 6.9.7. But I have 6.10... What am I missing?

Thanks a lot!

Thank you for the reply! It didn't work even after upgrading to Ubuntu 22.04. I had to install backport-iwlwifi-dkms to make it work.
