No error during extraction and installation but camera still not found [Ubuntu 16.04.7] #9

I used Ubuntu 16.04.7 until now on MBP 13 (late 2012, i7-3520M model). Two weeks ago, the camera still works, but after update, it didn't work. I installed the facetimehd and its firmware from this repository.

There is no error during extraction and installation, but still I cannot use my camera (not found in GMeet, no device found in cheese). There is no output nor error when loading facetimehd via modprobe.

bta@mbp:~$ sudo modprobe facetimehd
bta@mbp:~$ 

How can I debug this program to find what is wrong with my installation?

Same with me ... I used Arch with Kernel Linux 6.4.11-arch1-1. I tried reinstalled from AUR, depmod, modpre.. the camera still wont work. How solve this problem:

Host: MacBookAir6,2 1.0 Kernel: 6.4.11-arch1-1
