SRU Justification: Impact: The firmware is needed for users to be able to use the sound card. Without the firmware a user would have to go without device support or download the firmware from elsewhere.
How Addressed: Adding the firmware to the linux-firmware package fixes the issue. Patch: Please see http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=cndougla/linux- firmware.git;a=commit;h=cf6291f0e49a854819df84b1b64f460dfdb97b86. Reproduction: Boot with latest Lucid image on affected hardware. The sound card will not function. Regression Potential: Practically zero as the firmware is new and does not overwrite existing files. The firmware will need to be removed from the alsa-firmware package maintained by Medibuntu when this is uploaded, but that's outside of the scope of Ubuntu. -- snd-asihpi firmware could be included in linux-firmware https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/557037 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
