I actually did not know this existed. Found the project after all the Samsung SSD talk.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem like Samsung is uploading that much firmware.
"Is uploading firmware on behalf of other vendors" according to the site.
- hughsient 4y agoMake sure you open a support ticket asking for LVFS updates -- it's easy to ignore one person, but much harder to ignore hundreds of people asking for the same thing.
- nickexyz 4y agoThat is a good point, will do! With most things I just complain a bit and then go on with my life, but this actually feels like it could work. Samsung does already release some sort of broken Linux livecd for fw updates, seems like LVFS would be easier for everyone.
- hughsient 4y agoSamsung actually upload firmware to the LVFS on behalf of a few different OEMs, so they certainly know how. It's a policy decision, not a technical or legal one.
