Re: missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/

If you actually have i915 graphics, you might want to install a couple of packages. Run 'lspci' to check. In my experience, it will still work without that. I'm not sure if you miss anything that way - I don't do anything that requires intense graphics. Just simple games and video here.

$ apt-cache search i915
xserver-xorg-video-intel - X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver
firmware-intel-graphics - Binary firmware for Intel iGPUs and IPUs

Hello:

Is this an issue?

Not necessarily, more so if your graphics are working properly.

I had the same issue with my Nvidia Quadro FX 580s and Nouveau drivers.

If so, how to fix it?

Best,
