Wired Internet Connection / Ethernet Not Detected

Hi, I just installed Bazzite on a new machine - a 9800x3D and a x870 MOBO with a 7900XTX GPU but the OS isn't picking up that I have a wired connection to the internet. The Wi-fi antenna is working. Any advice for getting Bazzite to recognize a wired internet connection? Thanks!

Ran some commands and it looks like there isn't a Realtek driver installed Network: Device-1: Qualcomm WCN785x Wi-Fi 7 320MHz 2x2 [FastConnect 7800] driver: ath12k_pci Device-2: Realtek driver: N/A

RTL8126 no driver on Fedora 41 Beta

Hi all, I just installed Fedora 41 Beta on my brand new computer whose motherboard is an MSI X870 Tomahawk. Apparently my ethernet card is not supported : I can’t connect to anything by wire (WiFi is fine). According to specs, the X870 Tomahawk comes with a “Realtek® 8126-CG 5G LAN”, that seems to be confirmed by lspci | grep Ethernet : 0a:...

if you have the RL8126 ethernet chip, it's apparently included in the 6.12 kernel, not sure when that will make it to bazzite, but folks on the arch forum seem to be on it

That was it. I have the MSI Tomahawk x870 board.

Cool, @antheas mentioned in #🎮bazzite that there may be a 6.12 kernel testing build at some point soon-ish, but the kernel was only just officially released yesterday so it's probably a little bit til we see it upstream in fedora
