[10:02] <xnox> fling:  can you please ellaborate more?
[10:03] <xnox> fling:  our unstable kernel packaging is in https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/unstable but i'm not sure if you will find the things you need/want there.
[10:08] <ogra> xnox, do you know the frequency for linux-firmware updates ? there is a user in #ubuntu who has issues with i915, seems the new blobs are on kernel.org (skl_guc_49.0.1.bin) but not in any linux-firmwar package yet ...
[10:09] <xnox> ogra: it's not automatic / periodic but mostly enablement driven. one should open a bug report against linux-firmware to be looked at.
[10:10] <xnox> there is a small bump in progress (with reverts) being tested in focal-proposed at the moment
[10:10] <ogra> xnox, yeah, i asked for a bug report ... 
[10:11] <ogra> i thought we had some automatic process in place (its just blobs after all)
[10:24] <xnox> ogra:  blobs that do regress a lot often causing corrupted screens & loss of internets. so no, linux-firmware updates are never automatic for stable series and go through SRU process more or less like everything else.
[10:24] <ogra> oh, wow ... 
[10:25] <ogra> (i didnt know their content actually gets updated, i thought there are just new ones coming down the drain every now and then)
[10:25] <ogra> ... that indeed makes sense then
[10:53] <xnox> ogra:  there are conflicting firmware blobs with identical name, but different content that works on some boards and not others. and vendor unable to consolidate them.
[10:53] <ogra> woah, gross !
[10:53] <xnox> ogra:  hence raspi linux-firmware package overrides and diverts blobs from the main linux-firmware package
