[SOLVED] Eth/WiFi Not Listed in NetMan, BT not Listed, No Sound Dev

Kernel:  6.18.2-arch2-1 (64 bit)
CPU:  AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
RAM:  32GB (2x16GB) G. Skill DDR5-6000 CAS 36
NVME: Samsung 2TB 990Pro
MOBO:  Asus TUF Gaming B650E-E WIFI
BIOS:  Version 3602
GPU:  PowerColor 9600XT
DE:  KDE Plasma 6.5.5
Symptoms:
Booted machine and BIOS presented a message saying that the PCIEX16 slot is now using GEN3 speed.  Pressed F1 to enter BIOS and reset PCIEX16 to AUTO.  SAVED and BOOTED.  SDDM comes up as normal, login.  NetworkManager applet shows no network connection.  Open NM and it shows no ethernet or WiFi devices.  Bluetooth settings in Plasma also show no BT devices.  SOUND shows no sound devices.

If I run 

ip addr

only the loopback device is listed.

In KONSOLE, run ```sudo lspci``` and I see:

0a:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8125 2.5Gbe Controller (rev 0c)
0b:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 6E(802.11ax) AX210/AX1675* 2x2 [Typhon Peak] (rev 1a)
...
0e:00.6 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Ryzen HD Audio Controller
sudo lsusb
...
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0032 Intel Corp. AX210 Bluetooth
...

I'm really confused on what's going on, especially since the devices are being detected.  I've tried restarting NM:

sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager

And that does not fix the issue.  I've tried restarting, shutdown with power disconnect for several minutes.  Nothing is bringing these devices back online.  I've looked through ```journalctl -b``` and looked for any errors.  There's nothing related at all to networking, or audio, or BT.  In BIOS, I've verified that all these devices are enabled.  I'm at a loss for what's happening.  Any assistance would be appreciated.  My kiddo just wants to play games :-D  Thanks!

Also, I've tried plugging in a USB3 ethernet adapter.  LSUSB detects the device added, but again, it's not detected by NM.

Re: [SOLVED] Eth/WiFi Not Listed in NetMan, BT not Listed, No Sound Dev

lspci -k
uname -a
pacman -Qs linux
cat /proc/cmdline
lsblk -f

From the symptoms your installed and booting kernel are out of sync what usually happens because you forgot to mount the boot partition before updating the kernel or are booting a spurious partition into /boot

Re: [SOLVED] Eth/WiFi Not Listed in NetMan, BT not Listed, No Sound Dev

OK, this is an interesting response.  I did notice something odd in the journal...

"No ESP found, not initializing random seed."

There are some errors about issues with mounting /.  In my /etc/fstab I have two / mounts.  I built this machine earlier this month.  I think I just performed the first upgrade a week ago.  So it's entirely likely what you're saying is the issue.

It looks like I can't copy a file off the machine as the USB stick isn't found.

uname: 6.18.2-arch2-1
pacman -Qs linux:  linux 6.18.5-arch1-1

lsblk -f:

nvme0n1
    nvme0n1p1  vfat  FAT32   BEB4-DE59
    nvme0n1p2  ext4  1.0          ec83dd33b-addf-496d-8246-ac97afeb01ad   1.6T  6%  /

/etc/fstab:

# /dev/nvme0n1p1

# Swap file config

/swap/swapfile     none     swap   sw  0  0

I've tried going into fstab and changing the nvme0n1p1 partition from / to /boot, but the system didn't boot.  Thanks for your help!

Re: [SOLVED] Eth/WiFi Not Listed in NetMan, BT not Listed, No Sound Dev

uname: 6.18.2-arch2-1
pacman -Qs linux:  linux 6.18.5-arch1-1

are both quite dated and not the same.
Usb won't work because you've no vfat module.

Your fstab is wrong, the order matters and BEB4-DE59 is mouonted into /
Speculating that you're actually booting from BEB4-DE59 (lacking the /proc/cmdline output for confirmation)

# /dev/nvme0n1p2
UUID=ec83dd33b-addf-496d-8246-ac97afeb01ad      /                  ext4          rw,relatime  0 1

# /dev/nvme0n1p1
UUID=BEB4-DE59         /boot           vfat        rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro      0     1

# Swap file config
/swap/swapfile     none     swap   sw  0  0
UUID=BEB4-DE59         /           vfat        rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro      0     1

Then you'll have to mount the install iso, mount the partitions into /mnt and /mnt/boot, arch-chroot /mnt and re-install the kernel.

@seth thank you!  I'll do that tonight or tomorrow. I really appreciate the fast responses.  I'll keep the thread updated.

Re: [SOLVED] Eth/WiFi Not Listed in NetMan, BT not Listed, No Sound Dev

@seth

I've followed your procedure and it worked!  Thank you so much!!  Here is a link to my latest journalctl:

https://0x0.st/PZdy.txt

I updated fstab to make / mount first, then /boot after.  I rebooted into the arch-iso USB stick I still had and mounted the NVMe to the appropriate /mnt folders.  After I was in arch-chroot, I ran pacman -S linux.  The reinstall worked and I rebooted.  I was able to perform an upgrade once I was back into my normal environment.  However, I'm still getting this error in the journal:

Jan 25 21:19:08 turtlebropc bootctl[1048]:  Mount point '/boot' which backs the random seed file is world accessible, which is a security hole! 
Jan 25 21:19:08 turtlebropc bootctl[1048]: Random seed file '/boot/loader/random-seed' is world accessible, which is a security hole!
Jan 25 21:19:08 turtlebropc bootctl[1048]: Random seed file /boot/loader/random-seed successfully refreshed (32 bytes).
Jan 25 21:19:08 turtlebropc systemd[1]: Finished Update Boot Loader Random Seed.

I've looked up this error when I did the original install and I have no idea how to get rid of it.  And below you'll find the output to the commands you originally asked for. 

/etc/fstab

Re: [SOLVED] Eth/WiFi Not Listed in NetMan, BT not Listed, No Sound Dev

Whelp, nevermind.  I tried this link earlier and it didn't do anything.  Now that I've fixed /boot, it seems to be working correctly!

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=287695

I'll mark this topic as solved!  Thanks again for your help!
