No bluetooth on Asus Strix X870-i mobo

Bluefin

I upgraded my system to an Asus ROG Strix X870-i mobo and bluetooth is not working. I thought it was a kernel issue, but 6.12 just landed and no joy.

❯ bluetoothctl devices
No default controller available

❯ btmgmt info
Index list with 0 items

❯ sudo dmesg | grep hci0
[sudo] password for guru: 
[    8.828001] Bluetooth: hci0: Opcode 0x0c03 failed: -16

Any ideas?

It appears to be more deeply rooted than I thought. The WiFi on this mobo is a Mediatek. Anyone know how to enable this?

It’s a WiFi-7 chipset.

Turns out support for this chipset won’t land until kernel 6.13.
