I also recently have this issue, it was working few weeks ago.
sudo modprobe facetimehd
modprobe: FATAL: Module facetimehd not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.0-88-generic
I am running a Linux Mint Cinnamon
cat /etc/issue
Linux Mint 20.2 Uma \n \l
After trying to re-install everything I noticed that the driver works fine, it was not a system update issue, the only problem is that after reboot the module goes missing, and trying to re-install it without a clean enviroment leads to different errors.
Here is the summary of the installation steps, assuming the modules are downloaded already. (For the complete steps I follow this page https://github.com/patjak/facetimehd/wiki/Installation#get-started-on-debian)
cd bcwc_pcie
make clean
make
sudo checkinstall
sudo depmod
sudo modprobe facetimehd
sudo su
echo facetimehd >> /etc/modules
exit
Here are some steps I have done differently:
- If
make clean
is not done before installing you might see other issue already reported (Facetimehd 'Exec format error'). - This time I am not following the recommended options in
checkinstall
and I say no to everything, because I want to add the local files in HOME to the release package.
now the camera works but after a reset the configuration is lost, so I only need to re run in the directory bcwc_pcie
the commands:
sudo depmod
sudo modprobe facetimehd
- These two extra commands are not needed if we add
facetimehd
to the module list loaded at startup, as it was mentioned in the troubleshooting section which I did not to read :/ (sorry).
# echo facetimehd >> /etc/modules
I hope this help somebody else.

I performed an update recently, and have run into the same problem.
$ sudo modprobe facetimehd
modprobe: FATAL: Module facetimehd not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.0-72-generic
Distro: Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia
Linux 5.4.0-72-generic #80~18.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 12 23:26:25 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Will explore further.

Using an old kernel version (Mint's 5.4.0-66-generic in my case) fixed the issue.

Something it wrong with the dependancies or the compiler?..
Any ideas how to make the Mac camera working?
