I just installed Tumbleweed on a new laptop. ~> journalctl -b | grep firmware is show an error for one intel_vpu. *ERROR* ivpu_fw_request(): Failed to request firmware: -2 Does this mean that there is no firmware driver for that device? Or does it mean something else? My CPU is a Intel Ultra 185H (MeteorLake). From what I can find, that device has to do with AI functions on the CPU. I know that's new stuff, and support for these CPUs just came out on kernel 6.9. Is there something I need to do to get this firmware?

Can say I have the same issue and I wanted to ask about the same. Using Core Ultra 5 135U.

As you did not tell us what device you have it will be just a guess. https://github.com/intel/linux-npu-driver/tree/main/firmware/bin

Isn't "Intel Ultra 185H (MeteorLake)" the device that would have the vpu? From what little I understand, Intel's Meteor Lake stuff is all integrated into one chip; CPU, VPU, GPU. Is that wrong?
