[Bug 251838] Re: [intrepid] isight_firmware module doesn't load isight.fw

 

Removing i-f-t  and rebooting doesn't resolve the problem for me.

But I read in this report about isight.fw that should be copied to
/lib/firmware, should I do that, and if so, where do I get isight.fw?

Thanks

The new isight_firmware module doesn't load isight.fw
I extracted the firmware (isight.fw) using isight-firmware-tools and copied it to /lib/firmware.
Don't know why it doesn't load it. This should not be a duplicate of bug #185634 as the 2.6.26 kernel has a new isight_firmware module. Hope this gets finally fixed for intrepid release.
