  • ipu6-drivers

  • I have bought acer swift 3 laptop, but it seems webcam is not working on linux for these. Can someone please help me to install https://github.com/intel/ipu6-drivers on my arch linux ? I have intermediate experience with arch but haven't build/compiled kernels.

  • ipu6-drivers

  • First of all, ipu6-drivers are not updated for linux-6.2 and won't compile. Please install linux-lts together with linux-lts-headers. After that, please don't use the official repo. Hans de Goede from RedHat did some fixes so that patching the kernel is not needed. Please use his repo instead of the original: https://github.com/jwrdegoede/ipu6-drivers/tree/align-sensor-drivers-with-upstream-int3472

  • Thanks. Installing intel-ipu6-dkms-git from AUR using paru is giving error, says

  • icamerasrc

    icamerasrc

  • Then try the gstreamer pipelines from https://github.com/intel/icamerasrc/tree/icamerasrc_slim_api but I won't be surprised if they don't work because there are too many unsupported sensors.
