[Bug 1605974] Re: usbduxsigma_firmware.bin: old version causes driver crash
** Description changed: + SRU Justification + + Impact: The usbduxsigma firmware is out of date and causes the driver to + fail. This is fixed by updating the firmware from upstream linux- + firmware. + + Test Case: Using the driver with the old firmware fails. Using it with + the new firmware does not. + + Regression potential: The firmware is only used by the one driver so + there is no potential for regression anywhere else, and the driver + already isn't working with the old firmware. + + --- + The firmware of the usbduxsigma (alongside with the usbduxsigma.c) was updated in 2015 during a major rewrite but its binary was still the old one which causes the kernel driver to fail. I've submitted a patch to the kernel people (see below). However, as a quick fix could you also apply the patch to the package directly to have this fixed now and then we can wait until it trickles down from the kernel. I'm the maintainer of both the firmware and the drivers. This affects both 32 and 64 bit distros.
