 Posted: Thu Aug 11, 2016 6:00 am Post subject: Post Install Hardware Kernel/Module Configurations |
 |
|
I just recently came back to Gentoo after a long hiatus. I have bounced between Linux Mint and Sabayon but now have come back to Gentoo. Overall the installation was successful, except I can't seem to get all of my hardware configured correctly. After a large amount of googling and research I still have been unable to get the a bunch of the systems configured. When I boot using SystemRescueCD though I know what I am missing.
Using Kernel 4.4.6-gentoo
My output from lspci -kvm is:

The first two appear to be working properly except there is a firmware error in dmesg: | Code: |

Help with any of the unrecognized hardware or problem would be appreciated.

Try to add in kernel menu
| Code: | Device Drivers ---> Generic Driver Options ---> External firmware blobs to build into the kernel binary ---> i915/skl_dmc_ver1.bin i915/skl_guc_ver4.bin
Device Drivers ---> Generic Driver Options ---> Firmware blobs root directory ---> /lib/firmware |

I have tried to do this multiple time, but I still get the same errors as before.
| Code: |
[ 0.344682] i915 0000:00:02.0: Direct firmware load for i915/skl_dmc_ver1.bin failed with error -2
[ 0.344690] [drm:i915_firmware_load_error_print] *ERROR* failed to load firmware i915/skl_dmc_ver1.bin (0)
[ 0.344695] [drm:i915_firmware_load_error_print] *ERROR* The driver is built-in, so to load the firmware you need to
include it either in the kernel (see CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE) or
in your initrd/initramfs image.

Everything seems right when I configure this, but nothing changes.
| Code: |
[ 0.362307] i915 0000:00:02.0: Direct firmware load for i915/skl_guc_ver4.bin failed with error -2
[ 0.362316] [drm:intel_guc_ucode_init] *ERROR* Failed to fetch GuC firmware from i915/skl_guc_ver4.bin (error -2)
[ 0.364839] [drm:i915_gem_init_hw] *ERROR* Failed to initialize GuC, error -5 (ignored)
|
The second one: i915/skl_guc_ver4.bin no longer exists cause I deleted it because I needed it to point to i915/skl_guc_ver6.bin

| Any time you make a kernel change that should have worked, and it does not, you should start by checking that the new failure was produced while running the updated kernel. If you missed a step installing the new kernel, you might still be using the old known-bad kernel despite having successfully fixed it in the latest rebuild. Examine the output of uname -a to confirm that the kernel that printed the most recent message was built using your new configuration. You could also examine its /proc/config.gz to confirm that it was configured with the firmware built-in as you intended. |
