Dell, Lenovo ja HP liittyivät toukokuun aikana Linux Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS) -sponsoreiksi, mikä suomeksi tarkoittaa että jatkossa ko. valmistajien kannettaville pitäisi BIOS/UEFI-päivitykset onnistua myös Linux-käyttäjiltä. Tämä on merkittävä parannus nykytilaan verrattuna. #Dell #Lenovo #HP #Linux #fwupd

#HP Is the Latest to Sponsor the #Linux Vendor #Firmware Service (#LVFS)
HP is joining Dell and Lenovo as premier sponsors of the LVFS, as part of the project’s new sustainability effort
LVFS delivers millions of firmware updates for components like BIOS/UEFI, motherboards, and peripherals. It provides metadata enabling Linux desktop and server apps to automatically locate and install hardware updates. #Fwupd is the main application used to update device firmware on Linux

You should be very wary of cheerleading any "great new Linux developments" fronted by major corporate sponsors in today's environment.

💻 Dell, Lenovo and HP boost their Linux stance 👍
After Dell and Lenovo announced the sponsorship of the Linux Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS) as being premier sponsors ($100k+ yearly) HP is also now a premier sponsor.
LVFS is an open-source firmware updating mechanism for hardware vendors to upload firmware updates to then be accessed by Linux users via tools like FWUPD.

I just recently started using fwupd. It is really useful to update firmware and BIOS in most of the machines that I work with.

#Fwupd 2.1.3 #Linux Firmware Updater Released with Support for the SHIFT6mq and SHIFTphone 8 https://9to5linux.com/fwupd-2-1-3-linux-firmware-updater-adds-support-for-shift6mq-and-shiftphone-8
-
I've just tagged a new #fwupd release: https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/releases/tag/2.1.3
There's nothing amazing here, but a few highlights are the progress bar is now buttery-smooth (moving from integer percentage to double precision) and that you now don't need to load all the crypto libs if you're just using libfwupd in your app.
There are a couple of regressions fixed too, so be sure to upgrade when your distro provides the update.

I'm at #PremDay at Paris and just walked past two people in the hallway I've never met in my life talking excitedly about #LVFS and #fwupd. I know it's an unusual niche open source project but it was a super proud moment for me.
Open source maintenance is 99% fixing bugs and little things like this make it all worthwhile. Thanks those 2 random people!

I've been (ab?)using Claude to find bugs in my software, and although it's found quite a few false positives, it's also found a lot of actual real bugs. Nothing CVE-worthy, but still important to fix. Releases include:
* passim: https://github.com/hughsie/passim/releases/tag/0.1.11
* libxmlb: https://github.com/hughsie/libxmlb/releases/tag/0.3.26
* libjcat: https://github.com/hughsie/libjcat/releases/tag/0.2.6#fwupd will follow, when all ^^^ has hit the various build-roots. If anyone wants to polish the translations in the meantime, it's the normal place: https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/fwupd/fwupd/

I'm pondering some interesting talks I could suggest for #OSFC this year. Does anyone want me to talk about anything specific for firmware, #fwupd or LVFS topics?
I'm thinking doing a pretty aggressive FU aiming at some of the major hardware vendors, but I'm not sure my boss would approve. Other ideas welcome.
