That's amazingly simple, I just never tried it since I figured 'autofocus' means focussing by itself. I still wonder why dmesg reports a failure to start the firmware. Maybe it's just wrong debugging information and the firmware is only supposed to start upon touch input in the first place.
For now, I have a workaround to enable autofocus:
* Open Megapixels
* Touch your screen.
This should trigger the firmware loading (check dmesg) and you should observe Megapixels doing continuous autofocus. Sometimes it might be update the autofocus. Position your autofocus in the middle of your display, and touch the screen to trigger a autofocus.
Thank you so much!
