you would just have to see how it is done there, open a PR with the code then it can be built and used when making a custom image
sadly the easiest solution is to just get hardware that is known to work to begin with that are part of the normal kernel
what ever option works I'll go with and I'm noob to this kind of things so I need to be guide through it
getting a card that just works in linux would be the easiest since we will not include it in bazzite, since out of kernel network drivers tend to break other drivers
I see
for ethernet cards i have had good experience with broadcom and realtek cards. for wifi i would always go intel
I got this card installed in my system https://www.nicgiga.com/products/10g-base-t-pci-e-network-card-marvell-aqtion-aqc113c-controller-nicgiga-10gb-ethernet-adapter-10gbe-rj45-port-nic-card-windows10-11-windows-server
