I just installed ParrotOS on my HP laptop. It seems to be working fine, but there is no audio, and no device is detected. Here’s some info:
uname:
Linux parrot 5.8.0-2parrot1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.8.10-2parrot1 (2020-10-05) x86_64 GNU/Linux
lspci | grep audio

Scrolling through messages, I see

… so, it looks like this distro doesn’t have the firmware for my intel audio card. Does anybody know how to get and install it?
Thanks!
