Continuing the discussion from Missing Intel Meteor Lake Drivers:
I have recently gotten my hands on a MeteorLake laptop and don’t seem to be able to load the correct drivers for the audio chipset. This isn’t your usual laptop, so there could be something going on, but the laptop did have working audio drivers when in was on Windows 10.
I also had issues finding drivers that would work for the original Intel WiFI AX411 wireless card that was in this laptop, however switching to a 5G only card resolved that issue, though one day I would like to get that WiFi 6E card back in here and working again.
Also, I do not have any BIOS updates available to me.
Here’s my inxi -zv8 results:
