I also have these messages but I think they are likely false positives. There seems to be a lot of possibly misleading information and advice on the internet about these warnings -- would love to her your advice on this, but i think these are mostly false positives
* am i right in suspecting that these messages are often false positives? * why is firmware for processors not present is being warned about? * is there a way to suppress some of these warnings? (perhaps a user-defined filter?) * how do i tell which firmware my processor actually needs? The longest and most plausible source i have found is [1] but it seems to miss the point that there is no point installing firmware for a skylake processor if you don't have one. It also recommends downloading non-free blobs from intel which may not be the best solution [1]: https://askubuntu.com/questions/832524/possible-missing-frmware-lib-firmware-i915
