Public bug reported: SRU Justification
Impact: A 4.18-based hwe kernel has been introduced into bionic. However some of the firmware files it requires are missing from bionic's linux- firmware, rendering the relevant hardware inoperable. Fix: Add the missing firmware files. Regression Potential: Most of these files will not be used by the existing kernels in xenial. A few may be, and while regressions are not expected it's possible that new firmware versions might introduce regressions. ** Affects: linux-firmware (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Seth Forshee (sforshee) Status: Invalid ** Affects: linux-firmware (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: High Assignee: Seth Forshee (sforshee) Status: In Progress ** Also affects: linux-firmware (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux-firmware (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: linux-firmware (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: linux-firmware (Ubuntu Bionic) Assignee: (unassigned) => Seth Forshee (sforshee) ** Changed in: linux-firmware (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1808528 Title: Update linux-firmware in bionic for 18.10 hwe kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1808528/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
