i915_bpo is from 4.7, and it's the first release that can use kbl_dmc, so it's unsurprising to not have it in xenial yet.. and it's not a must- have, but should enable lower power states. kbl_guc is not used yet nor is it upstream so can be skipped for now
skl_dmc seems uptodate, _guc should be updated to ver6 to match i915_bpo which is used on SKL. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1624164 Title: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/kbl_dmc_ver1.bin for module i915_bpo Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux-firmware source package in Xenial: Confirmed Bug description: Also: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/skl_guc_ver6.bin for module i915_bpo Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Packages: ii linux-firmware 1.157.3 all Firmware for Linux kernel drivers ii linux-image-generic 4.4.0.36.38 amd64 Generic Linux kernel image To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1624164/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
