- Description:
- Make firmware updates automatic, safe, and reliable.
fwupd is a simple daemon to allow session software to update device firmware on
your local machine. It is designed for desktops, but also usable on phones and
headless servers. You can either use a GUI software manager like GNOME Software
to view and apply updates, the command-line tool, or the system D-Bus interface
directly.

Warning: fwupd is highly experimental and DANGEROUS
The fwupd utility is currently highly experimental on FreeBSD
and may be unstable or unsafe to use.
Proceed with caution - flashing firmware carries a significant
risk of rendering your device unusable (âbrickingâ).
Only attempt to flash firmware if you are prepared to accept
this risk.
If you successfully flash a device â or encounter a failure â
please send a detailed report to decke@FreeBSD.org
Include information about your hardware and the firmware you
attempted to flash. This feedback will help track which devices
work correctly and which do not.
