    possible missing firmware loop

    every time I update/upgrade zesty I get -

    Code:
    Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.125ubuntu8) ...
    update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.8.0-28-generic
    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
    I know there was something posted here in the forums about it.

    and it runs Haswell desktop just fine.

    Code:
    Graphics:  Card: Intel Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller
               bus-ID: 00:02.0
               Display Server: X.Org 1.18.4 drivers: (unloaded: fbdev,vesa)
               Resolution: 1440x900@59.89hz
               GLX Renderer: Mesa DRI Intel Haswell Desktop
               GLX Version: 3.0 Mesa 12.0.3 Direct Rendering: Yes

    Re: possible missing firmware loop

    Does it prevent the update from completing or does it just give annoying warnings?
