I upgraded my laptop to have the 4.8 kernel and during the process the following warnings came up.
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.8.0-040800-generic
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_01.bin for module i915
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/kbl_guc_ver9_14.bin for module i915
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/i915/bxt_guc_ver8_7.bin for module i915
These seem a little odd to me as my CPU is i7-6700HQ which is a skylake and my understanding is that these are for different CPUs? I followed the instructions here prior as in the past I had warnings regarding my CPU family.
Are these warnings things I should just ignore, or should I install the guc/dmc drivers for those CPU families?
