The AX200 card is only supported on Kernels 5.1+. Pop!_OS 19.04 had lower than this so I installed a mainline kernel using ukuu. Once you are running on a 5.1+ kernel:
- Download iwlwifi-cc-46.3cfab8da.0.tgz
- extract and
mv iwlwifi-cc-a0-46.ucode /lib/firmware
If an update nukes your updated kernel, on boot press ESC and select previous kernel. Reinstall your kernel using ukuu.
A very annoying bug! However, a quick fix for my touch pad (which uses the i2c_hid kernel module):
sudo -H gedit /lib/systemd/system-sleep/touchpad
insert:
#!/bin/bash
if [[ $1 == post ]]; then
modprobe -r i2c_hid
modprobe i2c_hid
fi
reboot
