I am dual booting Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon on a Surface Pro 7+ alongside a Windows 11 OS. I have seen a lot of posts dealing with systems that have issues with the integrated Windows cameras but nothing about my specific system and was wondering if there has been a fix for the camera not working. Any help would be appreciated!
Here are my specs when I run lsusb

Hi.
hoping someone else will have better ideas than asking Mint devs or forums?
