After following the getting started guide, I'm left with the following error in dmesg

facetimehd 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for facetimehd/1871_01XX.dat failed with error -2

I'm on a Macbook pro mid 2014 15" Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS Linux kernel version 5.3.0-51-generic

The full output from dmesg is in this file dmesg-out.txt (Error in question is at the very end). Here's the output from lsmod lsmod-out.txt

I'm fairly new to linux so I don't know how to go about this...

@TeaWolf you could ignore that. Does the driver then works fine for you?
