Bug#900871: Missing last i915 firmware versions. Package need update for kernel 4.16.0.1 and 4.16.0.2.



Package: firmware-misc-nonfree
Version: 20170823-1

The binary firmware skl_dmc_ver1_27.bin for Intel "Skylake" DMC firmware, version 1.27, is missing.
The kernels 4.16.0.1 and 4.16.0.2 require them. I get a sort of failed loading error when booting like :
"*ERROR* failed to load firmware skl_dmlc_ver1_27.bin"

I have tried to fix the issue by download from  :                                                                          https://github.com/wkennington/linux-firmware/tree/master/i915

Then I drop the file in /lib/firmware/i915 and reboot.

The previous error message has vanished but a newer is appeared like :
"[drm:csr_load_work_fn] *ERROR* Firmware has wrong CSS header length"

Could you update the package ? Or what should I do about this binary firmware ?


Best regards,
Etienne MAHE
