Hi Manuel,
what exactly is happening with the camera? Not working at all?
22.04 LTS supports MIPI cameras via OEM metapackages.
Here is the link (see section 3.1.3): https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperMembershipBoard/KnowledgeBase#Canonical_OEM_metapackage_packageset

yeah its not working at all, the camera light doesnt even turn on I tried several things and none of them worked

[federicarike]

Okay, let us fix the issue.
Could you please copy paste here the code for

sudo add-apt-repository --list

[mrivera76]

thanks this is what is throws

[federicarike]

Alright, the last one is a development one we have to remove it.

sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:oem-solutions-group/intel-ipu6

Also, the 5th one is a noble (24.04) one. Why is it there?

After that:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends --yes \
    linux-generic-hwe-22.04 \
    linux-modules-ipu6-generic-hwe-22.04 \
    linux-modules-usbio-generic-hwe-22.04

Let me know what happens after

reboot

[mrivera76]

i reboot after i did the last command and is still not working

Which kernel version are you using? It is listed under About > System details

[federicarike]

Okay @mrivera76 , I took some time to look at the table of Ubuntu 22.04 OEM metapackages.

Since you have a Dell Latitude 7440, let us check you have this installed:

sudo apt install oem-somerville-lapras-meta

The MIPI camera should be supported. Then do also:

sudo apt-get autoclean

sudo apt-get autoremove

reboot

Renamed this topic to be model-specific.
The previous “intel MIPI” title was attracting different problems.
