Obviously, this is a big deal. Tens of thousands of people are likely to be offered a firmware update in the next few weeks, and hundreds of thousands over the next few months. Understandably we’re not just flipping a switch and opening the floodgates, so if you’ve not seen anything appear in fwupdmgr update or in GNOME Software don???’t panic. Over the next couple of weeks we’ll be moving a lot of different models from the various testing and embargoed remotes to the stable remote, and so the list of supported hardware will grow.
