    Not a bug as such, but simply they are not yet supported. Looking at the open tickets and the above seems to be getting to the bottom of the wireless issues reported, this is a good another “now known” item.

    The list probably looks like the below now: (noting that these are shortcomings in drivers, kernels, supplicants, ….) The “But it should work” philosophy whilst idealistic is not true even in commercial / non iwd / non LE landscapes. Wireless will probably always have its challenges given standards and compatibility across the many elements that make it up - but every known reproducible issue should improves our support and hopefully the Linux wireless ecosystem system.

    Known issues

    • wireless networks with FT enabled may not work
    • wireless networks with WPA3 may not work
    • wireless networks where the signal strength is low may not authenticate
    • The wl bcm_sta driver (at this stage) will be dropped from LE13 - (lack of patches to make it compatible with linux 6.12)

      For these 4 known issues - there does seem to be movement upstream in “fixing“ / “adding support for”

    Yes. Maybe. No.
    Answer will depend.


    In my case - I run nightly+ on my daily system (Generic ADL) , but am developing everyday as you would see. The operating system is starting to take shape for the LE13 release, in that the big changes - compilers, libraries, kernels are pretty much done. So no major changes at the operating system level that would impact are expected. We will be updating to the next Mesa soon.

    As a developer, I run RC software packages, so that we try and address issues with “new packages” before they are released - thus I try to be on the front foot so that the commits are soak tested first. The team in both Kodi and LE do the same.


    There are kodi changes happening (api) that will mandate changes/updates to addons, and this will continue through to the release of Kodi Piers. These may cause you to have to update - if you use these.

    You will need to decide what’s best for you, but if you stay on a version “eg the early sept one” and don’t have fixed the issue you are trying to address, then when the LE13 does come out, the issue may still not be fixed in the release version. In the case of using “new hardware”, I would stay using recent nightlies, to make sure that they work with your system. Older hardware is usually more stable in the linux kernels/graphics software.


    based on Chewitts answers - I would fix your system so that it can play all, as if there is another issue that comes, it might not get fixed. If there is a further problem that is not whitelist. So GUI in 1920x1080 and whitelist max 3840x2160.

    I can see a few things.

    You are using the xe driver - good (as the kernel log indicates that 4908 is not supported properly by the i915 driver.)

    The Kodi gui is 4096x2160 - suggest setting this back to HD

    I believe from the logs that the GUI is working - please confirm

    I believe from the logs the “bootsplash” is working - please confirm

    From the playback logs, you can see that koi probably picks the wrong resolution for playback of the HD stream. Use the whitelist, get it to use a HD resolution.

    The stream you are playing is broken - see ffmpeg logs.

    Please test a known working file. E.g. 2D BBB - http://bbb3d.renderfarming.net/download.html

    I am compiling a nightly image for you to test (current master + the 6.12-rc4 linux) download from https://heitbaum.libreelec.tv - will be there shortly.


    Guessing kernel 6.11 upset it.

    So the 29 September 8602b53 image fails?


    Can you share the pastekodi?

    as a point of note - iwd and connman in LE12 nightlies are now the same as that in the LE13 builds. So, any testing with LE12 should be undertaken with the nightlies - and hopefully there is improvement in the support. There have been some issues that have been addressed in iwd.

    So any logs with a cause / resolution could be shared with the iwd/connman teams.

    So it’s this one, (you can confirm by remove/adding it in between running lspci)

    Bus 001 Device 003: ID 2013:0462 PCTV Systems PCTV 461

    ==
    Can you please run lsusb -d 2013:0462 -v

    Also journalctl -f when you insert the USB, as the dmesg in the debug log does not show the device at all.

    ==
    Answer seems to be here (Message 8 - no go) - https://tvheadend.org/d/8633-dvb-s2-…configuration/8 not sure if there have been changes since.

    There are lots of references here -

    There are some modprobes in 12 that might be worth testing to confirm your card version.

    You have the syslinux.cfg file correct for the “xe” driver now.

    The MEI and GSC errors are now gone (I have marked the Pull Request as ready for LE13)

    You still have a warning with “Port F asks to use VBT vswing/preemph tables” - here is the code and it is not implemented - https://github.com/torvalds/linux…2253f4035d3be2e - something you could research / check with the kernel (Intel) team - https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/


    You may want to test using both the i915 versus xe drivers, and see which one works better for you. Officially the i915 driver is suppose to support your card (as you had it working yesterday) - so will leave you to experiment.
