Surface Pro 6 Kernel 5.10.17-surface is good!

[Acers1]

Hello
I'm using Surface Pro 6, Linux Mint, and kernel 5.10.17 is the most stable kernel for me. Upgrading to anything more, 5.11,5.12,5.13 results in unstable wifi. After any suspend the wifi adapter is gone and I need to restart, however with kernel 5.10 this only happens once in a while.

If I'm doing anything wrong, or you need any more information please tell me what information to give you.
Thank you for the great work.

I am also using SP6 but kernel 5.11 and 5.12 works for me. Maybe your wifi hardware has broken?

I'm using Arch Linux with the latest linux-surface kernel on SP6, and wifi is stable for me. This thread might me related to your issue: #70

Ok so I upgraded to 5.13.12-surface
and it seems pm-suspend works but if I systemctl suspend, or system automatically suspends for inactivity, after wake up I don't have wifi. However, if I suspend again with pm-suspend and wake up, the system will have wifi again.

Does anyone know how I can replace systemctl suspend with pm-suspend? or just the wake up procedure?

BTW I'm using LMDE (Linux Mint Debian Edition) with Mate if it makes any difference.

I want to install a linux-surface kernel for camera support but I found that nothing happens when I did:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/master/pkg/keys/surface.asc \
    | sudo pacman-key --add -

nothing happens.

OK it seems to be a internet delay, I should wait a bit longer, maybe 3~5min. It is not reasonable!

PS: this will be may last surface-kernel as I will move to a Thinkpad X13. Thanks for the awesome developers and community!

Do you still have any sleep scripts of an older kernel in /lib/systemd/system-sleep/sleep? If that's the case please remove those (or the wifi related part).

Other than that, can you upload a dmesg output after suspending?

I installed the Linux Mint (Ubuntu edition) and now everything is working perfectly with the latest 5.14 kernel

Do you still have any sleep scripts of an older kernel in /lib/systemd/system-sleep/sleep? If that's the case please remove those (or the wifi related part).
The only scripts in the old system are hdparam and unattended-upgrades
hdparam is also in the new ubuntu system
