Missing "non-updatable" devices #283

Open superm1 opened 3 months ago

superm1 commented 3 months ago

GNOME Firmware offers devices that are both updatable and not updatable. The thought behind this is that the non updatable devices can still be queried to tell what firmware is on them when cross referencing to a bug report.

This also means that child informational devices are missing too. For example on an HP USB-C Dock: firmware-updater: image

GNOME firmware (46): image

You can see the DMC version is shown in GNOME firmware but not shown in firmware-updater.
