I was just looking at Zorin. I use PopOS as a daily driver and one of my favorite things about it is that it supports the firmware update manager. Zorin Connect is highly compelling, but without the firmware update manager I'm not quite sold.
- commoner 5y agoI think the GNOME Firmware app should be a suitable replacement. It also uses fwupd/LVFS for firmware updates: https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnome.Firmware https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.gnome.Firmware The GNOME Software app that's included in Zorin OS should also check for and be able to install firmware updates.
- kodah 5y agoI downloaded it on Virtualbox and didn't see any updates for Intel Management Engine, which the firmware update manager is currently griping about, but the mechanisms it uses to check could be obscured. I'll give a try on one of my other computers and see how it goes.
