Great, thanks for confirming. It will stay in testing for a while in case anyone else encounters any problems.

Anyone else that encounters this issue before the NVM is promoted, please follow these instructions to turn on LVFS testing.

After some days my XPS don't recognize that version 26 installed (message say current version is 00.00)

Hi,

Would it be possible to provide the same update for Precision 5520 laptop? The NVM 26 firmware is available here: https://www.dell.com/support/home/bg/en/bgdhs1/drivers/driversdetails?driverId=NVNKG

It doesn't seem to be the same firmware, as both filename and checksum don't match.

Thanks :)

superm1 commented

@frigi83 I've got a potential fix for that issue. I think it's mostly cosmetic, please reference that bug for more updates on it.

@ydubreuil
This issue is specifically around the XPS 9360. Please open new issues for other systems if possible otherwise this is impossible to keep track of.

superm1 commented

Once this bug migrates to -updates, I think we should release this from -testing.

Is there anything preventing this to be migrated to -updates @superm1 ?

superm1 commented

Thanks for the reminder, it's been migrated now.
