=== mhcerri9 is now known as mhcerri [08:15] chiluk, also with the HWE kernels in older series we do have to upgrade firmware more 'aggressively' in older series as well. Mostly graphics and wifi it seems. [08:23] Phibs, This seems to be the script: https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/+git/kteam-tools/tree/mainline-build/cod-version-map-builder [08:24] I haven't looked what it's doing but it seems to be called daily. The timestamp of the html file is from today. [09:04] Yea the data seems stale, sadly [09:04] Thx! [17:58] ideally, firmware wouldn't be packaged in 1 huge ever-growing package though... [17:58] it's already almost 1 GiB in size (after unpacking) [18:00] How many firmware packages do you want ? ;) [18:01] it would be better if people could just download what they need... (same for during installs, only copy what's needed) [18:09] Like 1 deb per firmware ? Seems like a lot ;) [18:18] doesn't have to be debs, of course; and some firmwares are already distributed through fwupd, for example, so maybe that can be used somehow... [18:58] How would you download what you need if your NIC needs fw that you don't have yet? :-) [18:59] But yes, package size is a concern and it's on my plate to look at splitting some lesser used fw out into separate packages. Or something like that. [20:05] juergh: that's why install media would need to have them too, of course [20:06] but like I sadi before: "only copy what's needed" [20:06] *said*
