@vicamo I tested various combinations, here's the dmesg output: stock 5.3 kernel + iwlwifi backport: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/j6WDwqDJcd/
mainline 5.4rc3: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/VnY6vZvqnC/ mainline 5.4rc3 + backported iwlwifi (there was an error inthe install, see notes in log): https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/WwpmGmPdvh/ Unfortunately no luck - in all cases the firmware errors out immediately after loading. I noticed the 'trigger' is different with the backported iwlwifi. FWIW I've seen some old reports of people getting AX200 to work on ubuntu 19.04 using 'mainline kernels' from June/July this year, and also 19.10 some ppl using the chipset on 19.10 daily builds prior to launch - this is why I decided to upgrade SW + change wifi card. I also notice that the mainline iwlwifi module looks for firmware 50, then 49, and finally loads 48 which is the one that ubuntu ships. The one in the kernel tree is also 48, I wonder if intel keeps a "-next" tree of some sort somewhere where versions 49/50 could be present. I found these kernel bug reports: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205123 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=204821 They both refer to the use of PCI slot adapters triggering the problem, which do not apply on my case. Motherboard: ASUS Maximus Gene Viii -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848831 Title: Intel WiFi AX200 firmware loading error resulting in no wifi Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 19.10 - stock kernel - Intel AX200 PCI card in a desktop PC uname -a Linux nahuatl 5.3.0-18-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 8 20:14:06 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux The card is detected OK as dmesg shows, however the card's firmware fails immediately after loading (see dmesg output below) and wifi doesn't work at all. Big disappointment since the AX200 chip was supposed to be supported on 19.10. Ubuntu includes two ax200 firmware versions, version 48 loads by default in my system (and fails). I tried version 46 (by renaming the version 48 file) and it failed in the exact same manner $ ls /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-cc-* /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-cc-a0-46.ucode /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-cc-a0-48.ucode The card's Bluetooth functionality is also detected and it works fine. It's just the wifi FW loading what seems broken in ubuntu's 5.3 kernel. $ rfkill list 0: hci0: Bluetooth Soft blocked: yes Hard blocked: no ~$ dmesg | grep iwl [ 12.312443] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) [ 12.321098] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: TLV_FW_FSEQ_VERSION: FSEQ Version: 43.2.23.17 [ 12.321101] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Found debug destination: EXTERNAL_DRAM [ 12.321102] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Found debug configuration: 0 [ 12.321309] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: loaded firmware version 48.4fa0041f.0 op_mode iwlmvm [ 12.390389] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6 AX200 160MHz, REV=0x340 [ 12.400654] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Applying debug destination EXTERNAL_DRAM [ 12.400893] iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Allocated 0x00400000 bytes for firmware monitor.
