echo "blacklist bdc_pci\ninstall bdc_pci /bin/false" > /etc/modprobe.d/nf Modprobe -r bdc_pci # remove disturbing kernel module # make sure that the disturbing kernel module is blacklisted # and cannot be loaded as a dependency of another module. This can be done by running the following commands: modprobe -r facetimehd # temporary remove facetimehd module If the output is instead No /dev/video0 device, then make sure to unload the kernel module bdc_pci as described in the wiki. If everything worked out, the output should be: Apple Facetime HD (PCI:0000:02:00.0): You can test if the video source has been identified correctly by executing v4l2-ctl -list-devices. Then let's get the driver and install it from AUR: $ yay -S bcwc-pcie-gitĪfter the installation we need to load the kernel module: $ modprobe facetimehd If the headers are missing, make sure to install them: $ yay -S linux-headers # select the headers that are missing I use yay to install packages from AUR which I can highly recommend and which I will use in this article.įirst let's get information about all installed kernels and see if the headers are installed for all of them: $ pacman -Q | grep -E 'linux ' # see which kernels are installedįor each installed linux kernel there should be a -headers file next to it, e.g. The code is in the Arch User Repository (AUR). It requires a driver that is not part of the official kernel but must be installed separately. Unfortunately one thing that did not work out-of-the-box is the webcam. Kudos to the Arch and Manjaro teams for their great work! I was astonished how many things just worked out-of-the-box.
