Today's update is completed except for the unifying receiver update. I tried several times but it would never do it. No error message. Maybe the package is borked? Why is there no error message and is there a log someplace that might tell why so the devs can fix it? No prefix since none of them seem to apply as this seems to be a system problem which I think should make it a priority.

Some vendor firmware seem to not like this, so try it manually
In the journal log and/or syste,log. You can use KSystemLog to view and search. Use 'fwupdmgr' as a keyword.Originally posted by steve7233 View Postis there a log someplace
it is a known thing in Discover, not tied to any distro.

My SSD drives can not be updated because apparently, EFI can not update in legacy mode.

I must be missing something. If you're using Legacy mode, why is updating the UEFI firmware necessary?Originally posted by steve7233 View PostMy SSD drives can not be updated because apparently, EFI can not update in legacy mode.

If we could get more details, it would help a LOT. Actual messaging from the terminal or whatever.
But will we ever see any?
