This is now in RPMFusion, we should investigate this.

What's required here? I glanced over the blog post... seems like it would be adding akmod-intel-ipu6 as another build in https://github.com/ublue-os/akmods

Is that all?

Does someone have this device to test?

@bsherman I do have a laptop with one of those cameras, if testing is needed.

i added the v4l2loopback akmods into a blue-build and also installed akmod-intel-ipu6 package, the webcam is detected but doesn't seems to work, i think i'm missing something else, not sure what tho

after installing akmod-intel-ipu6
i tried
akmods --force --kernels "6.8.7-300.fc40.x86_64" --kmod intel-ipu6
and getting the following error

i tried installing binutils but still got the same error, not sure how to solve the missing ld command

Firmware instructions here, looks like we'll get everything else in the latest kernel:
