Isn't it strange that update-initramfs tells me that some firmwares not corresponding to my processor generation could be missing? Doesn't the tool compare firmwares with actual hardware used? W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/icl_dmc_ver1_07.bin for module i915 W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/tgl_dmc_ver2_04.bin for module i915 W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/bxt_huc_ver01_8_2893.bin for module i915 > And it's preferred to install "firmware-misc-nonfree" package ([1])to > random downloads from Internet. > Actually, I had already installed firmware-misc-nonfree: $ apt policy firmware-misc-nonfree firmware-misc-nonfree: Installé : 20190717-2~bpo10+1 Candidat : 20190717-2~bpo10+1 Table de version : *** 20190717-2~bpo10+1 100 100 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports/non-free amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 20190114-2 500 500 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster/non-free amd64 Packages 28 mars 2020 à 19:32 de [email protected]: > On Sat, Mar 28, 2020 at 07:22:41PM +0100, > [email protected]> wrote: > >> Why aren't they distributed via traditional Debian packages? >> > > They are, but they aren't in main archive (non-libre, no source code). > My apt sources.list includes main, contrib and non-free. I don't find the firmwares in Debian packages, only a bxt_huc old one: $ apt-file search icl_dmc_ver $ apt-file search tgl_dmc_ver $ apt-file search bxt_huc_ver firmware-misc-nonfree: /lib/firmware/i915/bxt_huc_ver01_07_1398.bin Best regards, l0f4r0
