Based on the latest build. Haven’t used it much, but it seems to work pretty well on my OnePlus 8T.

Never once touched his per diem.

Is your laptop, by any chance, an HP? I had the same issue with wifi and finally, after about a year of frustration, found the solution HERE. To save a click, here’s the part that worked for me, with the disclaimer that I don’t honestly know how this works, but by the time I found it I was frustrated enough to run random code from the internet with sudo privileges on my main machine:

First, create the file

/etc/systemd/system/hp-keycodes.service

and type/copy-paste the following into it:

[Unit]
Description=HP setkeycodes fix

[Service]
Type=oneshot
Restart=no
RemainAfterExit=no
ExecStart=/usr/bin/setkeycodes e057 240 e058 240

[Install]
WantedBy=rescue.target
WantedBy=multi-user.target
WantedBy=graphical.target

Then, run the following commands:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now hp-keycodes.service

That fixed it for me, hopefully it helps you (or someone else) as well!
