You can either use a GUI software manager like GNOME Software to view and apply updates, the command-line tool or the D-Bus interface directly. </p> <p> The fwupd process is a system daemon to allow session software to update device firmware on your local machine. It is designed for desktops, but this project is also usable on phones, tablets and on headless servers. </p> </description> <url type="bugtracker">https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues</url> <url type="homepage">https://fwupd.org/</url> <url type="translate">https://www.transifex.com/freedesktop/fwupd/</url> <url type="vcs-browser">https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd</url> <update_contact>richard_at_hughsie.com</update_contact> <developer_name>The fwupd authors</developer_name> <developer id="fwupd.org"> <name translatable="no">The fwupd authors</name> </developer> <translation type="gettext">fwupd</translation> <content_rating type="oars-1.1"> <content_attribute id="social-info">moderate</content_attribute> </content_rating> <provides> <binary>fwupdmgr</binary> <binary>fwupdtool</binary> </provides> <releases> <release version="1.9.16" date="2024-04-05"> <description> <p> This release adds the following features: </p> <ul> <li>Prefer zstd over xz for metadata</li> <li>Relicense a few remaining plugin files to LGPL-2.1+</li> </ul> <p>This release fixes the following bugs:</p> <ul> <li>Correctly record UEFI success if adding ESRT nodes</li> <li>Defer the DP Aux MST scanning on hotplug to workaround a kernel bug</li> <li>Do not do the post-update version check if the device needs-reboot</li> <li>Fix a fastboot warning when loading device</li> <li>Fix a possible warning in fwupdmgr when excluding releases</li> <li>Fix a qsi-dock warning when writing chunks</li> <li>Ignore attribute-changed to work around a regression in macOS</li> <li>Ignore ZFS zvols when finding the default ESP</li> <li>Mark Pluton TPMs as part of the main CPU</li> <li>Put the fwupd-efi verbose debugging in the journal</li> <li>Recognize zfsbootmenu in ESP detection heuristic</li> </ul> <p>This release adds support for the following hardware:</p> <ul> <li>Acer T34 and U33 docks</li> <li>Qualcomm Series 5 Gen 1 and Gen 2 and Series 3 Gen 1 and Gen 2 devices</li> <li>Several Puya SPI chips</li> <li>VIA VL822 C0</li> </ul> </description> </release> <release version="1.9.15" date="2024-03-11"> <description> <p> This release adds the following features: </p> <ul> <li>Allow loading in parameters for the test device from fwupd.conf</li> <li>Ensure LVFS remotes are changed from .gz to .xz</li> <li>Store the install duration in the history database</li> </ul> <p>This release fixes the following bugs:</p> <ul> <li>Drop OverrideESPMountPoint references in uefi-capsule</li> <li>Fix a potential double-free when writing AVer firmware</li> <li>Only request the BOS descriptor when bcdUSB &gt;
