Firmware bug after upgrading kernel
- Vous devez vous identifier ou créer un compte pour écrire des commentaires
I should begin saying that I don't have almost any experience using GNU/Linux, although I am happy with Trisquel so far.
After upgrading linux-libre kernel to the last LTS version in Trisquel 7.0 I get this message during startup:
[0.000000[Firmware Bug]: TSC_DEADLINE disabled due to Errata: please update microcode to version: 0x92 or later]
I don't really know what this means. Should I be concerned? I haven't noticed any other problem after the upgrade.
Kernel version is 4.14.22-gnu
I don't think it's related, but since I started using Trisquel, the system has been unable to wake up after suspending it.
Thanks in advance.
There's a typo in the message. It said "version: 0x52 (or later)". Sorry.
I am a translator!
Apparently the fix (which is never a fix as proprietary software is never a solution but **the** problem) is installing proprietary microcode as described here -> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48036877/debian-firmware-bug-tsc-deadline-disabled-due-to-errata
Don't! Learn to live without suspending.
welcome to the forum btw!
Thank you! I came across that fix before, but I have never considered it an option.
Please don't install it. Proprietary software is never the solution. Linux-libre shouldn't print such messages. I'll mention it to lxo.
CPU microcode is the shittiest non-free crap you can install on your payed computer.
