We have to turn off the laptop for a few minutes to make it work
again. A reboot is not sufficient.
The path into this failure is still unknown, but an unclean shutdown
might be relevant here.

Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
Kernel modules: iwlwifi
We have upgraded the firmware to the most recent version 20240709 from
kernel.org
(linux-firmware-upstream_20240709_all.deb, built using upstream's python
script).
No improvement.
Installing 6.7.12 or 6.9.7 from the bookworm-backports repository seems to help.
We haven't had a single incident using these kernels on the Tuxedos.
