I installed Ubuntu 22.04 on my Acer Aspire ES1-512 and I'm getting this message every time before it boots. My Bluetooth is not working due to this error.

I have tried How to find the built-in bluetooth adapter in Toshiba satellite c55-896 laptop, but it's giving this error:

dpkg: error: cannot access archive 'linux-firmware*.deb': No such file or directory

    This was reported in [bug 1969853](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1969853) and a fix is in the proposed repository as of 2022-05-04. The fix will likely be rolled out to everyone soon. – auspicacious May 04 '22 at 05:50

You can try my solution:

  1. Download linux-firmware_1.201.tar.xz from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-firmware/linux-firmware_1.201.tar.xz (you can visit https://packages.ubuntu.com/impish/linux-firmware for more details).
  2. Extract linux-firmware_1.201.tar.xz and copy the ar3k folder into /lib/firmware.
  3. Restart your computer.

    Thank you so much for the solution - it worked perfectly. However, I have to ask: why? Why after running Ubuntu for about 5 years straight, this is now required? – xfx May 09 '22 at 05:13
