i915 missing firmware error message during kernel 6.2.0-26 installation on Xubuntu 22.04

  • 772

The 22.04 hardware enablement package was updated a few minutes ago installing kernel 6.2.0-26 on the system. The problem is that during the image generation this message appeared:

W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/dg2_huc_gsc.bin for module i915

How is this fixed please?

kernel

    I am posting this answer, although I think it may not be necessary since a few minutes ago on August 5, there was a linux-firmware update that may have fixed the issue.

    In case the issue still exists after this update, the way to fix it is by downloading the required .bin file from here and copying it as root to the /lib/firmware/i915 folder. Right after that, the 6.2.0-26 image needs to be regenerated by executing:

    sudo update-initramfs -u

    This will update the latest kernel image only, which in this case is the 6.2.0-26 image. There should be no errors or warnings after this but the system should be rebooted for the updated kernel to be loaded.
