wl & rtl8821ce wireless drivers for kernel 5.10.182 in the forum Drivers section.
RE - Firmware:
Firmware was reduced - to see if any missing, in a terminal run: dmesg | grep irmware
Many firmware files can be found at: https://github.com/isavl/linux-firmware
These go in /lib/firmware (sometimes in subfolders of that).
RE - Web Browsers:
FirefoxESR (adrv) is designed to run as spot. To run as root, edit /usr/local/bin/firefox64esr , & remove 'run-as-spot'. Updater (in Internet menu) is for 'run-as-spot' only - updates should be offered automatically if running as root.
Updater method (for run-as-spot ONLY): To update Firefox, close it, & click Update Firefox (in Internet Menu). This temporarily runs Firefox as root - necessary to allow update. Then click Menu (3 bars on top right) then click Help, then click About Firefox. Will update if possible & then restart needed. Then close Firefox, then open it from icon - updated version runs, as user spot.
