OK. It looks like I have to go back to the 5.19 or 5.15 kernel.

Very probably the dkms package can't build the module for the new, non-official kernel. And/or the backport-iwlwifi-dkms is not current enough. I completely dunno.Originally posted by Beerislife View PostAny ideas?
actually, the backport-iwlwifi does not build on 6.x kernels, though backport-iwlwifi-dkms package has been updated in Mantic to fix this -- it might be useful to try out mantic, or an Arch/Endeavour/ or possibly a Fedora iso and see if they have this by defualt - or a test install, then adding their backport-iwlwifi-whatever packaging.
Unless someone has done this successfully for Ubuntu 22.04, it will at best be a pita atm, imo, etc. et al, lol.

You might want to try "rfkill unblock bluetooth" at the command line. It's worked for others using Ubuntu.Originally posted by Beerislife View PostIn System Settings Bluetooth shows as being disabled and clicking the Enable button is fruitless! I wonder if any guru can shed some light on this! It's not highly important as I haven't the need to use any Bluetooth devices with the machine just yet.

That machine is now running Mint and it's still a no go. Mint also offers the 6.1 kernel, which I tried ,and it's still not seen. I hadn't thought about it until this thread reappeared.
It's too hot to worry about! I'll look into it in October, I may have some time then, if there are no beer festivals!
Constant change is here to stay!

I have a feeling you will need a system with both a 6.3 kernel, or a very late 6.2, and all the other required firmwares etc. Mantic perhaps, or a recent Fedora live iso, or something similar.
Aaand I just now see that 22.04 is updating to 6.2 today, though I don't think this will help in your case, unless we are lucky.
