Adding a linux task. Most of the firmware links are now completely missing.
Particularly for this report, these messages come from the smsusb module, but this does not have any firmware links: $ modinfo -F firmware smsusb $ It should link to sms1xxx-hcw-55xxx-dvbt-02.fw, as it's trying to load that. Firmware like "dvb-usb-dtt200u-01.fw" certainly belongs to dvb-usb- dtt200u.ko, but again there is no link at all. The only two DVB modules which still have fw links are dvb-usb-dib0700.ko and dvb-usb-dw2102.ko, all others are missing. Also, we seem to have some obsolete firmware files: e. g. "dvb-usb- dib0700-1.10.fw" certainly belongs to dvb-usb-dib0700.ko, but that links to dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw now. Also there are quite a lot of firmware files which don't seem to belong to any module any more. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mythbuntu Bug Team, which is subscribed to linux-firmware-nonfree in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1068356 Title: lots of missing firmware links Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “linux-firmware-nonfree” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Today I tried my Hauppauge Ministick DVB-T tuner (2040:c000) with Kaffeine, but it didn't recognized it.

I think we should add this tuner to the list in software-properties, shouldn't we? If not the fact it doesn't work when plugging it in and doesn't notify you the need to install some additional software may be confusing for a normal user To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1068356/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
