Hi,

1. You need to file a bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug

2. There's pretty much no chance that we're adding support for a new device
to 22.04. You need to run at least 24.04 with the HWE kernel.

3. We're not going to interact with MediaTek based on a single user request.
We don't have the capacity nor the resources to do that.
