Today I noticed that after I first booted my computer, my motherboard’s Bluetooth card wasn’t detected. I need bluetooth to use my speakers because my soundcard doesn’t have linux drivers(another problem for another day) so I went without sound today. But then when I restarted the computer to see if that would change anything regarding the Bluetooth, it,

a.) Didn’t change anything about the Bluetooth driver, and B) now my 2.4g dongle doesn’t work for me to connect my mouse(I can still use it wired though) and my wired keyboard doesn’t work.

Both times I booted my noticed that systemd was shutting down udevd, which I have never noticed before. I know that udev is controls peripherals, so that is the most likely issue.

How would I go about fixing my computer?

Computer is running fedora 40 and has an MSI mpg B650 gaming edge wifi. I can send a hardware probe if necessary

    I invite you to take a peak at the “drivers” folder in the Linux kernel source tree.

    There are absolutely drivers in Linux. This is nonsensical. That they are often bundled with the kernel makes no difference.
