[Bug 1461261] Re: 14.04 linux-generic-lts-vivid but no vivid firmware

 

This is already fixed in linux-firmware 1.127.12 for trusty:

$ dpkg -s linux-firmware | grep Version
Version: 1.127.12
$ ls -1 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265*
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265-10.ucode
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265-12.ucode
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265-8.ucode
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265-9.ucode
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265D-10.ucode
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7265D-12.ucode

Don't trust the output of modinfo here - for iwlwifi it's only telling
you the _minimum_ version supported.

Closing this bug.

Bug description:
  Hello

  Within Ubuntu 14.04 its possible to install the "vivid" kernel, but,
  the linux-firmware package is for an older kernel.

  schreiner@xps13:~$ modinfo iwlwifi | grep 7265
  firmware:       iwlwifi-7265D-10.ucode
  firmware:       iwlwifi-7265-10.ucode

  I had to install the vivid linux-firmware package to get the wireless
  running again.

  Is there a better solution?

  Regards Dominik
