By Vladimir Mikhalev · Solutions Architect · Docker Captain · IBM Champion
This article is for those looking for a detailed and straightforward guide on installing firmware for kernel drivers on Ubuntu.
Visit the linux-firmware directory, then locate and copy the URL of the latest .deb file for the “linux-firmware” package.
Create a new directory for the “linux-firmware” package using the command:
mkdir /tmp/linux-firmware
Go to the new directory using the command:
cd /tmp/linux-firmware
Download the new version of the “linux-headers” package with the “.deb” extension using the command:
wget https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-firmware/linux-firmware_1.183_all.deb
Now you need to install the downloaded package using the command:
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Specify the password for the account and press “Enter”.
We reboot the operating system using the command:
sudo reboot
