install missing drivers

[xokia]

I am new to proxmox this is my first attempt. I have a Asus B760-I motherboard with an intel 13900 CPU

I was failing to install proxmox for multiple errors
I had HDaudio c0d2 issue so I disabled the audio hardware
also had issues with the wifi/bluetooth so I disabled those

Then I had issue with intel 13900 video driver which it did not give me any kind of video error just generic frame buffer mode fails
So I followed the below link and was able to get proxmox installed and running
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/generic-solution-when-install-gets-framebuffer-mode-fails.111577/

Can these devices be turned back on?

With the latest hardware, you need a new enough Linux kernel (Proxmox is based on Debian with an Ubuntu kernel). Try the latest optional kernel.

You are trying to use the Proxmox 6.x (buster) repository with your current Proxmox 7.x (bullseye) installation. Please remove those two and use the correct repository.

thank you that was not obvious. Well at least not to me.....

So after upgrading to new kernel I turn audio HW back on and wifi card

I get
Bluetooth: hci0: failed to load intel firmware file intel/ibt-104
Bluetooth: hci0: failed to read MSFT supported features (-56)

Not sure if audio works I havent got far enough to test it but I dont see an obvious error

I can't tell what specific WiFi 6E/Bluetooth 5.3-combined device that is from the ASUS website. Try disabling Above 4G Decoding in the motherboard BIOS.
Use lspci -nn to find out that the WiFi-part of the device is (the Bluetooth-part probably uses USB internally) and search for which Linux kernel version supports it.

Thanks for the help!
I do not see the wifi/bluetooth device

Any updates on this? I have similar hardware. I have a Asus B760-I motherboard with an intel 13500 CPU. When trying to install I got

Bluetooth: hci0: failed to load intel firmware file intel/ibt-104

ended up power cycling the PC and bricked one stick of RAM. I assume something to do with the ram disk. Took a few power cycles and removing DIMMs to get POST again.

I disabled wifi/bluetooth and the audio HW in bios as I didnt really care about them since I was using it as a headless server. I could never get either to pass through correctly.

Thank you to this post!

I have just upgraded from a H470 based motherboard to an Aorus B760i and I could not of the life of me get it to boot (even from a new installation media). I've just spent the last 5 hours trying to get it to work. :-(

Eventually after finding this post, using the nomodeset trick I managed to get it to boot and then I installed the 6.2 kernel which then booted fine.

I have no option to disable my wifi/bluetooth card in the BIOS but I did disable the HD Audio.

I note there is no installation media that contains the 6.2 kernel which could complicate things for new users that have newer hardware.

So my advice to anyone before changing your motherboard/CPU: Upgrade to the latest kernel!!!

Did you have the video issue? below fixes that issue

nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/intel_vga.conf

Driver "fbdev"

I still have issues where my system crashes about once per day or every other day. Fairly certain its a proxmox issue if I build with just windows it never crashes. These are my current warnings. Its been rough getting help lately.

First one it seems to have an issue with the extra cores not sure why. That is all I get for a message dont know why its warning me about the extra cores

This one is my biggest concern. I suspect something is not being configured correctly.

Thanks for the reply xokia.

My previous system (with a H470 chipset and i3-10100 CPU) was crashing randomly every day or two and seemed to be getting worse. The entire computer would hang (headless server in a cupboard) and a power off is the only thing that would resolve it. I thought it was the PSU, so I replaced that. At first it was fine, then it started again. Tried swapping out RAM etc. I also had no problems with Windows.

So... I have just bought a new motherboard and CPU to try and stop the problem! I sincerely hope I don't have the same issue with the new set up as I could have done without spending another £350 on it.

AFAIK I didn't experience any video problems today but your post could turn out to be very useful if I have the same issue again. Fingers crossed.

I'm probably not that useful for following I'm a HW engineer and more of a hobbyist when it comes to skill level with linux/debian. I'm looking for alternate solutions myself. If windows supported iGPU passthrough I would just stick with windows. My take on it and I could be completely wrong is proxmox is more for commercial server grade products. Which tends to be a bit dated and doesn't change that often. Newer hardware likely takes a while to get support. Out of the box I havn't had much luck. If your lucky enough to have HW that is already supported by proxmox your probably good. They should have a page that lists compatible HW. Maybe they do and I missed it.

You do have some knowledgeable folks that pop on occasionally and try to help. Hope you have better success then me, good luck!
