[ Test case ]
Install the latest linux-6.14 kernel on Noble:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:canonical-kernel-team/ppa
$ sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-24.04-wip
Install broadcom-sta-dkms:
$ sudo apt install digimend-dkms
Load the modules:
$ sudo modprobe hid-kye
$ sudo modprobe hid-uclogic
$ sudo modprobe hid-polostar
$ sudo modprobe hid-viewsonic
The same procedure can be repeated on linux-6.8 to test for possible
regressions.
[ Fix ]
+ Apply patches from broadcom-sta-dkms Plucky release enabling 6.14
+
+ * debian/patches/support-linux-6.12.patch
+
[ Regression potential ]
We may experience regressions in systems that are using the digimend
drivers, especially with kernels >= 6.8 kernel.
