([LVFS] 5 Hours Ago Fwupd 2.0.9)


Following his recent [1]PremDay talk on LVFS/Fwupd , Richard Hughes of Red Hat today released Fwupd 2.0.9 as the newest feature release for this open-source firmware updating utility for Linux systems.

Fwupd 2.0.9 brings documentation improvements, a number of bug fixes, and other minor items... Most exciting though is adding support for firmware updating on the Intel Arc B-Series "Battlemage" graphics cards. The newest Intel Battlemage graphics cards like the [2]B570 and [3]B580 can now enjoy firmware updates to be applied under Linux.

whiffed shots, hunted for lost balls and stood over putts for what seemed

"I'll ask if we can play through," Bill said as he strode toward
the women. Twenty yards from the green, however, he turned on his heel
and went back to where his companion was waiting.
"Can't do it," he explained, sheepishly. "One of them's my wife
and the other's my mistress!"
"I'll ask," said Jim. He started off, only to turn and come back
before reaching the green.
"What's wrong?" Bill asked.
