What I'm saying is modprobe doesn't load firmware and > udev does since that was the observed behavior here. That doesn't seem to be the standard method for the last 9 years, see... https://lwn.net/Articles/518942/ https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/5/175 >From reading those it appears that if firmware is in the correct filesystem location, then user space won't be involved any more with its loading. Maybe the old ways are still enabled in Debian and used in some cases? My bullseye kernel does have the kernel config enabled for user side firmware loaders, I've not looked at udev. -- Tixy
