TP-LINK TX20UH

I did read the documentation, I know this was not in the list of known working wifi adapters, but I had come across a solution in my searches online. I figured, hell I'll just dualboot Bazzite and see if I can get it to work. Of course this is my first experience with Universal Blue and I now realize I cannot use apt...so my solution fails. The solution was installing the rtl18852au driver via dkms which I'm reading is not possible in an immutable distro. Anyone know of a workaround here, or am I limited to buying a new adapter? Forgive me, I'm pretty fresh to linux, and brand new to Bazzite. Hoping to ditch Win10 asap 🙂...

I am unable to wake my pc on my PS5, 8Bitdo Ultimate 2C, and my 8Bitdo SNE Pro 2, but for some reason unable to wake my 8Bitdo Ultimate 2 Wireless controller using the same bluetooth connections as prior.

Flatpack error code 4

Hello, I'm new to Linux and wanted to install Bazzite. I've tried installing Bazzite four times. I set the installation to automatic, I reset my SSD, and the same error keeps appearing: "Failed to install flatpaks-error-quark: Aborted due to failure (while pulling runtime/org.gnome.platform/x86_64/45 from remote). Anaconda: Error reading from file descriptor: input/output error (4)." I don't know what the error is due to since I don't understand. I disabled Secure Boot. The main boot drive is on my USB flash drive, and I can't use Windows because, as I clarified before, I reset the SSD. Please excuse my English. Please use a translator. Thank you very much in advance, and I hope you can help me solve it....

help pls

(all text translated via the site) I have a problem when I go to gmod on the server, it throws me out of the game, then when I wanted to install windows on the second disk, there were simply no disks in the BIOS except for fedora, although it's strange that I have a flash drive and several disks, but then when I turned on CSM in the BIOS, everything appeared for me but was not thrown into the flash drive, that is, when I wanted to go in, it threw me back to bazzite

I was typing in another ticket that just disappeared so... new ticket? I log in, Plasma flickers black a few times then crashes outright. I can't use the Super key to open the menu.
