build-in camera support for old (2019) MSI GF63 8RC laptop? #63

Open paapu88 opened 11 months ago

Dear Developers, Tried out for this repo but got things below. Does this mean I'm out of luck with my MSI GF63 8RC laptop? My problems is that the build-in camera is not working with ubuntu (now 23.04, kernel 6.0).

Could do some voluntary work here if that could help... br. Markus
