ThinkPad X1 Yoga cam not working in Ubuntu 23.04, cannot build icamerasrc

Question

I bought a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 7 with:

  32 GiB RAM
  CPU: 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1260P x 16
  Mesa Intel Graphics (ADL GT2)
  SSD: 2 TB
  FHD camera system with 4 microphones   3840x2400 Display which implies a MiPi camera as I     learned*

and installed Ubuntu 23.04.

* I wasn't able to detect the camera hardware with Linux or Windows. I found "MiPi" by research.

As far as I tested yet everything works well except the build in camera. I could not test the microphones yet.

It seems to be a well-known problem similar to this question

I tried to follow the described solution. Unfortunately the build of the icamerasrc.git fails because the prior installed libcamhal is not found. I am not very experiences with building and installing manually on my system, so I probably made beginner's mistakes, and any help is appreciated.

What I tried in detail:
First I installed Ubuntu 22.04. After it failed I tried Ubuntu 20.04.06 because some ThinkPads of this kind was sold with Ubuntu 20.04, but it failed again. Now I have Ubuntu 23.04, and I am still trying to get it work.

I realized that there are some packages needed that are not installed by default like dkms and git. Also I assume working with sudo should work, but since I don't know what causes the problem, I tried installing it as root. Then I got some problems that where caused by a path which contained spaces. I came from macOS and got surprised. Anyway I eliminated the unnecessary spaces.

What I actually did at last was this:

sudo su  
mkdir -p /media/data/shared/Installer/Linux/avp/Lenovo_ThinkPad_X1_Yoga_Gen_7_internal_Cam/  
cd /media/data/shared/Installer/Linux/avp/Lenovo_ThinkPad_X1_Yoga_Gen_7_internal_Cam/  
sudo apt-get update  
sudo apt-get upgrade  
sudo apt-get install git build-essential dkms cmake libdrm-dev v4l-utils libexpat-dev automake libtool libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev

Hinweis: »libexpat1-dev« wird an Stelle von »libexpat-dev« gewählt.

Though I just installed ipu6-camera-hal it is not recognized as libcamhal. Is this something different? Did I forget an important step? ./out contains among other things:

out/install/lib/libhal_adaptor.so  
out/install/lib/libgsticamerainterface-1.0.so  
out/install/lib/ipu_mtl/libcamhal.so  
out/install/lib/gstreamer-1.0/libgsticamerasrc.so  
out/install/lib/ipu_tgl/libcamhal.so  
out/install/lib/ipu_adl/libcamhal.so

Aren't these the libs which are just installed by copying them to /usr/lib?

As requested here are some outputs:

Check out this MIPI doc: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntelMIPICamera . There's some required packages in a PPA — R A, Oct 04 '23 at 18:50
thx. for the fast reactions. I added the dmesg and lspci outputs above. If that isn't the prefered way, here, please let me know. I'll check the wiki page. — tmj, Oct 04 '23 at 22:40
@r-a regarding the wiki: I did not find a MiPi driver in any repository. Perhaps I did not search correctly. E. g.: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oem-solutions-group/intel-ipu6; sudo apt install libcamhal0 -> E: Paket libcamhal0 kann nicht gefunden werden. Same result for libcamhal and ipu6-camera-hal. — tmj, Oct 04 '23 at 23:24
I tried it with 20 and 22 and 23 with the same result, as far as I could see. If I have to switch back to 22.04, I will do so, but I don't know how to get it work with 22.04, neither. — tmj, Oct 05 '23 at 12:34
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=402740 This seems to have the same controller as you do and is solved, has ipu6 instructions — R A, Oct 05 '23 at 12:39
What I don't understand most is that above "./build.sh" works up to "build_icamerasrc OK" which includes ipu6-camera-hal. And after that "./autogen.sh" results in "Cannot find libcamhal pkgconfig". What am I missing? — tmj, Oct 05 '23 at 12:48
pkgconfig in PPA is a .pc file in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig (libcamhal-dev) — R A, Oct 05 '23 at 12:55
I tried the Mint solution. As far as I understand they basically tried some things, then Mint published an update witch included the solution. I installed that Mint version, updated everything and since that did not help, tried the intel oem repository among other things without luck. Then a friend found an article that mentioned at least kernel 6. So I reinstalled Ubuntu 22.04.3 which has kernel 6.2.0.34 at found a working solution. I add the details above in the issue description. — tmj, Oct 07 '23 at 03:10
Could you publish your hardware probe now that it works? sudo apt install hw-probe, sudo -E hw-probe -all -upload (Post output link) — R A, Oct 07 '23 at 06:47
can't insert line feeds here. // $ sudo -E hw-probe -all -upload // Probe for hardware ... Ok // Reading logs ... Ok // WARNING: Unknown vendor 'CEB3' // Uploaded to DB, Thank you! // Probe URL: https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=56d18c9f8a — tmj, Oct 07 '23 at 22:50

Install Ubuntu 22.04.3. It includes the latest Linux kernel 6.2.0.34.
Install all software updates that are offered by the Software Updater.

Run the following commands in a terminal:

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt full-upgrade
sudo apt install linux-modules-ipu6-generic-hwe-22.04 linux-modules-ivsc-generic-hwe-22.04
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oem-solutions-group/intel-ipu6
sudo apt install libcamhal0 v4l2loopback-dkms v4l2-relayd v4l-utils vlc
sudo reboot

Now you can use VLC with the camera as a recording device.

I tried this using Mint (ubuntu 22.04 upstream) on a Surface Pro 8. It recognizes the camera (what it's a win for now, first time that happens), but I didn't get any preview on Cheese or Google Meet. And the laptop started to heat up in a unusual way. – ViZeke Oct 21 '23 at 15:12
