[StarBook Mk V] Unable to update firmware

Hi there I am unable to update the firmware on my Mk V. Similar to #147 however I am running a slightly different OS, Ubuntu.

Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS 6.5.0-28-generic

The service seems to be timing out with an error that I don't understand.

$ sudo fwupdmgr update
Failed to connect to daemon: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.fwupd: Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.fwupd': timed out (service_start_timeout=25000ms)

$  cat /sys/class/dmi/id/bios_version
8.05

$ cat /sys/class/dmi/id/ec_firmware_release
1.3

Some more output based on the suggestions in #147 .

Also suggested in #147 was to purge the Starlabs PPAs and try the stock packages. This did work but tells me I have no devices to update. According to this page I should have quite a few updates in the Coreboot firmware.

I appreciate the help, cheers!
