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

“Drivers” are only when you do ring 2 message passing in a hurd microkernel. Everything else is just “late-bound function call steering that happens to satisfy hardware-specific device communication and control”.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
