Am going to reboot into this soon.

MIght be worth removing linux-firmware-dvb from the repositories.

@paper42, could you delete the stale label please?

I've successful tested this PR on 3 different systems.

@ericonr I've created a PR https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/38683 to get rid of the conflicts between the two packages. Since linux-firmware-dvb has firmware remaining that is not yet in linux-firmware. -> (linux-firmware-dvb: remove conflicts with official linux-firmware)

dataCobra avatar Aug 23 '22 11:08 dataCobra

Hey @absrd,

linux-firmware is now on version 20220815. Could you update the PR?

dataCobra avatar Aug 24 '22 05:08 dataCobra

@dataCobra Done!

absrd avatar Aug 24 '22 12:08 absrd

Thank you :)

dataCobra avatar Aug 24 '22 12:08 dataCobra

Hey @classabbyamp,

it seems like @ericonr is currently not available.

I use this firmware version successful on three different physical machines.

I've also create PR https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/38683 to make sure the conflicts are fixed.

dataCobra avatar Aug 30 '22 07:08 dataCobra

Hey @ericonr,

do we miss something here or can we go forward with merging PR #38683 to remove the conflicts and then merge this PR also?

dataCobra avatar Sep 14 '22 04:09 dataCobra

Updated to 20220913

absrd avatar Sep 15 '22 13:09 absrd

@absrd and myself are still waiting for further information regarding this PR.

If something does still need work, let @absrd or me know. Since we're still on linux-firmware 20220411.

PR #38683 is created to fix the conflicts with linux-firmware-dvb.

Yesterday was the release of 20221012. Which has several updates and new firmware.

dataCobra avatar Oct 13 '22 06:10 dataCobra

Updated to 20221012

absrd avatar Oct 13 '22 12:10 absrd

I was also wondering why we're stuck on old firmware. I'm currently running the new firmware you graciously updated and all is well. 3 systems here too.

Rebased on to latest master and updated to 20221109

absrd avatar Nov 13 '22 21:11 absrd

Rebased on to latest master and updated to 20221109

Hey @absrd, could you force push again please?

dataCobra avatar Nov 16 '22 13:11 dataCobra

Conflicts in the linked PR have been cleared, please rebase @absrd .

the-maldridge avatar Nov 23 '22 06:11 the-maldridge

also add "fixes #40674" to the commit body

classabbyamp avatar Nov 23 '22 06:11 classabbyamp

Hm wonder what's up with CI, #38683 should've fixed those linux-firmware and linux-firmware-dvb conflicts, maybe another rebase/force-push would fix it?

JamiKettunen avatar Nov 23 '22 20:11 JamiKettunen

maybe another rebase/force-push would fix it?

no, the new version of linux-firmware-dvb just hasn't been indexed by xlocate yet.

e.g.:

$ xlocate -S
$ xlocate as102 | grep firmware   
linux-firmware-20220411_1      /usr/lib/firmware/as102_data1_st.hex
linux-firmware-20220411_1      /usr/lib/firmware/as102_data2_st.hex
linux-firmware-dvb-20170329_4  /usr/lib/firmware/as102_data1_st.hex
linux-firmware-dvb-20170329_4  /usr/lib/firmware/as102_data2_st.hex
linux-firmware-dvb-20170329_4  /usr/share/licenses/linux-firmware-dvb/README.as102

we can just wait a few hours

classabbyamp avatar Nov 23 '22 23:11 classabbyamp

Hey @absrd, could you now please force-push again? The indexing seems to be finished.

Also please don't forget to add "fixes #40674" to the body. :+1:

dataCobra avatar Nov 24 '22 08:11 dataCobra

image it's there

classabbyamp avatar Nov 24 '22 09:11 classabbyamp

It does seem like the branch should be rebased with master before a new push?

dataCobra avatar Nov 24 '22 09:11 dataCobra

no, that shouldn't matter. and xlocate hasn't updated yet from what I see

classabbyamp avatar Nov 24 '22 09:11 classabbyamp

no, that shouldn't matter. and xlocate hasn't updated yet from what I see

Interesting, mine is updated.

[datacobra@sourcerer ~]$ xlocate as102 | grep linux-firmware
linux-firmware-20220411_1       /usr/lib/firmware/as102_data1_st.hex
linux-firmware-20220411_1       /usr/lib/firmware/as102_data2_st.hex
linux-firmware-dvb-20170329_5   /usr/share/licenses/linux-firmware-dvb/README.as102

dataCobra avatar Nov 24 '22 09:11 dataCobra

Do get rid of the no longer needed license files I've created a new PR. :+1:

dataCobra avatar Nov 24 '22 09:11 dataCobra

How long does it take for xlocate to recognise the changes?
