+# Kernel 6.2.x on an Intel-system
+
+When I updated my laptop today, I discovered an error-message during the `apt upgrade`:
+`W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/skl_guc_ver6.bin for module i915_bpo`.
+This lead me to a bit of searching around. Most solutions was quite rustic and manual fixing with downloading and copying files in the correct directories and rebuilding a>
+But after some frustration and more downdrilling in the search results, I came upon this solution from a post on askubuntu.com. A simple script which handled everything. J>
+```
+#!/bin/bash
+
+WARNING_PATTERN='(?<=W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/)[\w.]+.bin(?= for module i915)'
+DOWNLOAD_URL='https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/i915/{}'
+FIRMWARE_DIR='/lib/firmware/i915'
+
+shopt -s nullglob
+
+WORKDIR="$(mktemp -d)"
+cd "$WORKDIR" || exit 1
+echo "Will check for missing i915 firmware and download blobs in '$WORKDIR'."
+
+sudo update-initramfs -u |&
+    grep -Po "$WARNING_PATTERN" |
+    xargs -t -I {} curl -O "$DOWNLOAD_URL"
+
+if [[ -n "$(shopt -s nullglob; echo ./*.bin)" ]] ; then
+    sudo chown root: ./*.bin
+    sudo chmod 644 ./*.bin
+    sudo mv ./*.bin "$FIRMWARE_DIR"
+    sudo update-initramfs -u
+else
+    echo 'No missing firmware found/downloaded.'
+fi
+
+rmdir "$WORKDIR"`
+```
+The script was shamelessly "stolen" from [Here](https://askubuntu.com/questions/811453/w-possible-missing-firmware-for-module-i915-bpo-when-updating-initramfs/811487)
