Can also confirm this bug, I'm on Ubuntu Mate 20.04.3. Manually replaced missing /lib/firmware/i915 files with binaries from
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux- firmware.git/tree/i915 Then ran update-initramfs -u w/o any errors. Installing the the missing i915 files also made my sound card produce music like it should. The bottom line is if you are missing firmware files, don't expect you computer work the way the manufacture expected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to initramfs-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1939986 Title: Missing firmware files, in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, for initramfs, when it loads i915 Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Dear all, I can see that the linux-firmware is missing firmware files, in Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS, for initramfs, when it loads i915.
