Well, Debian 12 simply does not support my new PC ![:(]( "Sad")
- I ended up on an ubuntu forum post where the issue was solved with a newer kernel (6.5)
- 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.
Looks like some naming convention was adopted then abandoned in later kernel versions.
Anyway thanks for the time you have spent searching on my issue![👍]()

One really strange thing is why the files needed changed when changing the kernel ... `ma-a0-gf-a0` to `ma-b0-gf4-a0`.Unfortunately, as everyone has reported, it is not included in the firmware-iwlwifi (even in sid). Does the card work on other distros? That card is from 2021 so there must be people out there with Linux that use it.
