This is the related config:

@k900:0upti.meK900I'd maybe check for firmware updates13:23:11
@k900:0upti.meK900Sometimes they just fix IOMMU nonsense13:23:19
@rikudou:lemmings.world@rikudou:lemmings.worldHow do you do that? You mean just updating packages?13:23:44
@k900:0upti.meK900I mean BIOS13:23:53
@rikudou:lemmings.world@rikudou:lemmings.worldI see, I'll check13:24:05
@rikudou:lemmings.world@rikudou:lemmings.world
In reply to @k900:0upti.me
I mean BIOS
Do you know how to do that from Linux? I found the firmware, but it requires MSI's flashing utility which is only for Windows
13:42:53
@k900:0upti.meK900There should be a downloadable capsule image13:43:05
@k900:0upti.meK900That you can flash through the firmware UI13:43:10
@k900:0upti.meK900Or maybe fwupd13:43:12
@rikudou:lemmings.world@rikudou:lemmings.worldfwupd didn't find any updates, no idea where to find the capsule image :/14:20:21
@k900:0upti.meK900What's your motherboard model?14:21:49
@rikudou:lemmings.world@rikudou:lemmings.worldMSI MS-159215:24:00
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.org rikudou@lemmings.world: That's a laptop? 15:25:06
@rikudou:lemmings.world@rikudou:lemmings.worldYep15:25:14
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgIn that case you need the model15:25:40
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgI wouldn't get my hopes up of that working or you being able to flash a BIOS15:25:58
@rikudou:lemmings.world@rikudou:lemmings.world
In reply to @atemu12:matrix.org
In that case you need the model
I'm not sure what do you mean? LIke, you can flash the BIOS easily using their Windows tools, so is there no way to do it in Linux?
15:27:09
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgIf it's not in fwupd, I wouldn't count on it.15:27:27
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgWhat's the exact model of that laptop?15:27:41
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgThat's what you need to Google and see whether MSI offers downloads15:27:55
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgNot the Mobo id15:28:09

@k900:0upti.meK900Possibly?15:28:30

They do, they offer some file and an exe tool for flashing it
15:28:34
@k900:0upti.meK900At least that's what Google says15:28:35

If the file is just a 16MB/32MB blob, it's probably flashable from the BIOS setup menu itsefl
15:28:53
@k900:0upti.meK900* If the file is just a 16MB/32MB blob, it's probably flashable from the BIOS setup menu itself15:28:55
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgYou're in Luck, it seems like they do offer a download15:29:11
