Hi Aaron~ I removed r8822be from the blacklist, rebuilt the mainline kernel with
sudo update-initramfs -u -k 5.3.0-050300rc2-generic and rebooted. What is interesting is that in mainline, r8822be is not loaded at all! I have attached journalctl -b0. In future kernels, will the Realtek 8822be card use the rtw88 kernel module?

Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1838133 Title: realtek r8822be kernel module fails after update to linux kernel- headers 5.0.0-21 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: On July 24th I upgraded to the latest linux-headers-5.0.0-21 as part of the dist-upgrade for latest packages in Disco Dingo 19.04. I didn't notice that wifi was no longer working because at work I exclusively use a wired Ethernet connection. Today, however, when I tried to use my realtek r8822be wireless card, I discovered that it was totally unresponsive and did not work with wpa_supplicant / wpa_cli even when invoked manually from the command line (let alone with NetworkManager). When the problem occurred, I was using 19.04's latest kernel 5.0.0-21. I then rebooted and selected kernel 5.0.0-20 from GRUB menu. "uname -a" shows that I am using the previous kernel version: Linux pj 5.0.0-20-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jun 24 09:32:09 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux With this kernel version as well as linux-headers-5.0.0.20, linux- headers-5.0.0-20-generic, my realtek wireless card works fine. While booted into 5.0.0-20 kernel, here are the realtek kernel modules that are loaded: # lsmod | grep r8 r8822be 692224 0 mac80211 806912 1 r8822be cfg80211 671744 2 mac80211,r8822be r8169 81920 0 Hopefully this realtek wireless regression can get fixed in the next minor kernel version. Let me know if you need any more information.
