We are working on the best way forward to deal with the requirements by some hardware for proprietary drivers. WiFi is a typical blocker, and graphics drivers can often break Kiosk Mode.
Please use this thread to list the exact packages (as best as you can detail) that you need and the hardware that you are using it with to build a DIY server.
Welcome!
Please read the original post - the idea here is to get exact packages required. “Just WiFi” is not a package.
We are discussing how best to implement this, but we want to provide the option for non-free drivers if users want them. We cannot provide those if we do not know what they are and we are currently only considering a couple well-known packages (TBA).
Hi all,
I know this post is a year old so I am probably doing something wrong but here goes…
I am trying to install the non-free OS on an HP ENVY Desktop - TE01-1022 and the install is giving the usual no wifi error.
The part I need a driver for is: Realtek RTL8821CE PCI-Express 802.11AC WLAN Bluetooth 4.2 WiFi Card 915620-001
The text below is the description from the HP website for the most recent Win 11 driver but I don’t know if any of that will help. Thanks very much for your time!

Welp, call off the rescue, I was trying random stuff and the issue was resolved by updating the BIOS.
I also found a tested hardware thread, I will add this there.
Thanks for everything!
