X Series X4

Hi I recently purchased a Radxa X4 with WiFi 6 / BT 5.2. Debian 12.8 and Dietpi distros don’t recognize the wifi module.I searched and the module is a AW-XM548NF and uses RTL8852BE chip. Someone could confirm it? Any possibility to install in some linux distro?

Thank you

The RTL8852BE need kernel version 6.6 or above, we have verified on Ubuntu 24.04
Or you can install the driver yourself follow this docs

To add more info:

I installed with this method:

WI-FI

The X4 uses a Realtek RTL8852BE adapter for Wi-Fi and that means we’re going to need non-free firmware. On Debian this is a two part process.

  1. Enable non-free sources.

  2. Crack open a terminal and install the the firmware-realtek package with apt.

sudo apt install firmware-realtek

After a reboot al

Thank you, this method is indeed more convenient

Just adding to this - debian bullseye (6.1) did not work, but debian trixie (6.12) works.
