8852be card using the wifi-firmware-rtw89-kmod module?

Good day!

Can you tell me how to make wi-fi work on a laptop with an 8852be card using the wifi-firmware-rtw89-kmod module? I still don’t understand, I loaded the module, but I can’t find the card? Or have the drivers not yet been released for this card?
 
Right, wasn't exactly sure how but this seems to work:
Code: 
cd /usr/src/modules/rtw89
make install
That builds and installs the driver, don't know how well it works though, it may not work at all.

The RTL8852BE seems not be supported, according to the rtw89 wiki "Support Matrix'", only RTL8852AE and RTL8852CE.

The rtw89 driver is not yet fully functional (see wiki "Currently known issue"). For this reason, the driver and firmware is although included in the 13.2-RELEASE source code, but is "Disconnected from build" for the official release. See wiki "Prolog".

I have the RTL8852AE on a Lenovo E15 laptop, built and installed the driver (and firmware) from source. Loading the driver attaches to the device, but the kernel panics trying to make a connection over wpa_supplicant.conf(5) (I haven't tried to limit DMA to 32bit, see wiki "Currently known issue", I hadn't the time to investigate the issue further).
