That would have been something close to shutdown number 5 or 6 though. Either way thank you to everyone who helped me get my hardware running right.

This is weird, but I started my laptop today and wifi and touchpad work perfectly on LinuxLite5.8. I guess this is the driver for the wifi that works but I have no idea why the touchpad is working.

I am now running MX AHS live and it's not detecting any sort of wifi. I tried to fully install it to see if that would help but it won't let me since the required partitions could not be made on my flash device.

Would this even make a difference considering the wifi chip in my computer isnt supported by linux? I suppose this will be the next step if I can't fix this problem in my current distro.

I tried to download this driver and i got the .zip of it, extracted it into a folder, the went into terminal from there and tried to configure but i got an error "no directory found". I am currently trying the info from post 19. Install went smoothly, but no success in detecting a network.

Well I can use a USB mouse and the touchscreen works but the wifi driver not being recognized is a complete deal breaker. USB tethering works and the laptop recognized wifi when it ran Windows 10/11.

Ok so the module i2c-hid-acpi is no longer loaded but it is not found in the directory

So my system is now running LinuxLite5.8 with the same issues. I tried the steps listed above without success. This is a very discouraging introduction to Linux.

Had an error come up during rmmod rmmod: ERROR: Module i2c_hid is in use by i2c_hid_acpi Modprobe went through smoothly but no mouse after reboot

Went into the bios and secure boot and fast boot are disabled but the problems are persisting. I will have a mouse cursor flash for few seconds during startup but no control then it goes away once I hit the pop home screen. Looking from similar bugs the Hantick 5288 TouchPads have been...

Ok I installed the driver for the wifi module but still no luck after a reboot. I tried some hacks with the TouchPad but a lot of that stuff is way out of my ballpark. Will probably look into a new distro soon if I can't get it going right in a day or so.

Hoping someone can help me, today I installed Pop_OS! 22.04 LTS on my Gateway GWTC116-2 and the install went great but I am having 2 major problems from startup. In the settings it is saying "No wifi adapter found" and my computer won't connect to wifi. The specific wifi module is an RTL8189ES...
