Public bug reported: The Multimedia VIMC module provides a test interface for the linux-media media controller framework.
This is useful for automated tests, and development of multimedia frameworks. Other components similar to this such as VIVID (CONFIG_VIDEO_VIVID=m) are enabled, but VIMC is missing from the linux-modules packages: $ grep VIMC /boot/config-* /boot/config-4.15.0-32-generic:# CONFIG_VIDEO_VIMC is not set /boot/config-4.17.9-041709-generic:# CONFIG_VIDEO_VIMC is not set /boot/config-4.18.4-041804-generic:# CONFIG_VIDEO_VIMC is not set /boot/config-4.18.7-041807-generic:# CONFIG_VIDEO_VIMC is not set /boot/config-5.0.0-13-generic:# CONFIG_VIDEO_VIMC is not set /boot/config-5.0.0-15-generic:# CONFIG_VIDEO_VIMC is not set Could this be enabled in future releases as a module please? I'm running Ubuntu 19.04, with Ubuntu 5.0.0-13.14-generic 5.0.6, however I believe this issue affects all current Ubuntu kernel releases. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1831482 Title: VIMC module not available (CONFIG_VIDEO_VIMC not set) Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The Multimedia VIMC module provides a test interface for the linux- media media controller framework.
