(See: [workarounds](#workarounds)) * Only firmware version 1.43 is known to work with the driver. Newer versions might also work but 1.43 is highly recommended. * Due to a bug in cpio 2.11 the firmware download script doesn't work. cpio 2.12 or later is required. (See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1318084) * The driver will complain about 1871_01XX.dat (or similarly named) files missing. This error can be ignored. The .dat files contains sensor calibration settings that will improve image quality. The error looks something like this: ```Direct firmware load for facetimehd/1871_01XX.dat failed with error -2```. Ignore it. * No /dev/video0 device appears after loading the module. This can be because the bdc_pci module is already loaded. Make sure you unload or blacklist bdc_pci before loading the facetimehd module: ```modprobe -r bdc_pci```. -* A reboot may be required after installing and compiling the modules, as was the case on a MacBook Pro (13", Late 2013). \ No newline at end of file +* A reboot may be required after installing and compiling the modules, as was the case on a MacBook Pro (13", Late 2013). + +# Workarounds +* You can use [facetimehd-toggle](https://github.com/Chamal1120/facetimehd-toggle) to toggle webcam only when needed. This way the driver will be unloaded when not in use and suspend/resume will work properly.
