Today I received my GPD Pocket 3. It came preinstalled with Windows 11. The device looks great. I Installed Kubuntu 22.04 in dual boot (It is the first time, I have a dual boot device since winXP, but this form factor often has compatibility issues with linux, so I kept Windows as a backup).
Wifi is not working (yet), and this is where I would appreciate your help.

The device does not show up in rfkill. Wifi does work in Windows 11, after installing the driver from here.
Running
sudo mv /usr/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.pnvm /usr/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.bak
as suggested in this answer, does not change anything. I would prefer not to change the kernel.
sudo journalctl -b -k | grep firmware
and maybe ' uname -v(I don't know which kernel Kubuntu 22 is using; 5.17 ?) and
modinfo iwlwifi | grep firmware`. It is very possible that you have to install firmware for your card. Did you install the iwlwifi package? – abu_bua Apr 29 '22 at 15:14sudo dmesg | grep iwl
