Hi,

System: Dell Precision 5820 Tower.

Dell Bios update version 2.35.0, severity critical, released 8 April 2024: https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=vntdt&oscode=wt64a&productcode=precision-5820-workstation

As of 8 May 2024, this version is not present on the LVFS site (which still has 2.34.0 as latest): https://fwupd.org/lvfs/devices/com.dell.uefi9f1ecab8.firmware

Thanks.

@glennmorris Can you grab the .exe file and install with /usr/share/fwupd/install_dell_bios_exe.py? The Linux distro version has been EOL'd.

install_dell_bios_exe.py worked, thanks. (I'm not sure what you mean by "The Linux distro version has been end-of-lifed".)

Still no version 2.35 on LVFS, but I see version 2.36 has now appeared on dell.com and LVFS. :man_shrugging:
