Judging by the commits to the i915 driver between 4.4 and 4.8, the situation is kind of messy. Ultimately it seems like they've moved away from using symlinks for the firmware because of coupling between the driver and specific firmware versions. I think we can exploit that and carry both versions of the firmware. Then 4.8 will load kbl_dmc_ver1_01.bin and 4.4 will load kbl_dmc_ver1.bin, and hopefully everyone will be happy.
I'll prepare a test build with this for you to test. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1645911 Title: linux-firmware package causes sound issues with after initramfs update To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1645911/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
