--- Comment #19 from Ilia Mirkin <[email protected]> --- (In reply to comment #18) > It still doesn't find the firmware after updating the initramfs (sudo > update-initramfs -u -k all), whether it is placed at > /lib/firmware/nouveau/nvd9_fuc*, /lib/firmware/nouveau/fuc*, > /lib/firmware/<kernel_version>/nouveau/nvd9_fuc* or > /lib/firmware/<kernel_version>/nouveau/fuc*. (The script uses nvd9_fuc* but > http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/NVC0_Firmware/ says just fuc* for > pre-NVE0 cards.) Erm, that's a lie. I've been meaning to fix it. I'm like 99.999% sure it always has to be nvXX_fucYYY[cd]. I'll double-check it again before updating the wiki. Putting it in /lib/firmware/nouveau is sufficient -- adding in the kernel version also works, but you'd normally just do that for firmware that was kernel version dependent, which this isn't. > > My 3.13-rc7 test kernel was compiled with the procedure in > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild; the .config lines > containing "nouveau" are > CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU=m > CONFIG_NOUVEAU_DEBUG=5 > CONFIG_NOUVEAU_DEBUG_DEFAULT=3 > CONFIG_DRM_NOUVEAU_BACKLIGHT=y > and kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nouveau.ko is on the modules.order list, > not the modules.builtin list. Don't know what to say. It just uses request_firmware() so it's whatever the kernel's normal mechanism for loading firmware. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
