No I don't, but.
Do you have CONFIG_RTW89 and CONFIG_RTW89_8852BE set in the kernel? If so, =
check the system logs. You will probably need to load some firmware.

I have a different model, so here is an example of what I have that might g=
ive you some ideas:

CONFIG_BT_MTK=3Dy
CONFIG_BT_HCIBTUSB_MTK=3Dy
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE=3D"rtl_bt/rtl8761bu_config.bin rtl_bt/rtl8761bu_fw.bi=
n mediatek/mt7925/BT_RAM_CODE_MT7925_1_1_hdr.bin mediatek/mt7925/WIFI_MT792=
5_PATCH_MCU_1_1_hdr.bin
mediatek/mt7925/WIFI_RAM_CODE_MT7925_1_1.bin intel/vpu/vpu_37xx_v1.bin"
CONFIG_MT76_CORE=3Dy
CONFIG_MT76_LEDS=3Dy
CONFIG_MT76_CONNAC_LIB=3Dy
CONFIG_MT792x_LIB=3Dy
CONFIG_MT7925_COMMON=3Dy
CONFIG_MT7925E=3Dy

The key is to check the system logs to work out what is loading and what is=
n't.
