[yordan-g]

System Info

Device: Lenovo ThinkPad X9, Ubuntu: 24.04.4 LTS, Kernel: 6.17.0-1017-oem

Problem

Built-in camera works, but image is upside down in Cheese and Google Meet. Reproduced using Google Meet and Cheese.

• IPU7 modules are loaded.
• Camera is detected and streams successfully.
• The issue appears to be orientation metadata / sensor quirk related rather than total camera failure.

Attached collected cli debug info:

I have the same problem and also the X9-15 with IPU7 on Ubuntu 24.04. Any work arounds until this is fixed?

[BenBJD]

A new driver and ipu-bridge patch to fix the issues has been posted to the mailing list. Probably won't be out till 7.2 unfortunately.

I'm not sure how Ubuntu does the whole ipu7 thing but I have a dkms package to handle it till upstream supports it properly. https://github.com/BenBJD/imx471-dkms

[nickdickinson]

I've used this workaround on Ubuntu 24.04 to adjust the video overlay and flip the video there. First I tried to create a second one and that didn't work. Basically it inserts method=rotate-180.

Here is the script. In case someone is not familiar, you need to copy this to bash script by creating a file like flip-x9-camera.sh then copy the text in. Then use the terminal and in the directory with the file, chmod +x ./flip-x9-camera.sh and then run source ./flip-x9-camera.sh.

#!/bin/bash
# Flip the IPU7 camera 180° by injecting videoflip into v4l2-relayd's pipeline.
# To revert: sudo systemctl revert v4l2-relayd
