I've put the output from that command in the attachment. In that output the device indicated as a Mediatek device is the one I tried to add to the VM which is producing the error.

That doesn't look promising. You have a lot of things in that iommu group including both of your ethernet devices.

Without that device the VM boots quite happily, and from what George was showing, the second version of the 6.18 kernel doesn't appear to have support for the chipset that I read was supposed to be being provided in the 6.18 kernel. It may be too early in the kernel release. I've checked the host system and the device that I think is the wifi device, as shown by INXI has bus-ID 08:00.0 which is the bus address shown in the message above, so I believe I have selected the correct device. The only thing I can think of is QEMU is expecting the host to have provided a driver for that device which in the current kernels doesn't exist, and, if that is the case that defeats the purpose of the test I'm trying to do which is check if the 6.18 kernel is going to provide a driver. Am I looking  at things incorrectly?

The driver might not be available yet:

I've looked at that thread and that person is using a later version of the kernel to what I see available and as the thread says the driver isn't available yet. What I also found interesting is the ID of Steve's device is 14c3:7927, whereas my device ID is 14c3:6639, so maybe my device is not using the MT7927 chipset but an MT6639 chipset which also seems to be not supported in the current kernels?

I don't see any indication that either of those are close to being supported.
