Ngemva kwesikhathi eside, Acer ku-Dell, HP, Lenovo nabanye abakhiqizi abahlinzeka ngezibuyekezo ze-firmware zamasistimu abo nge-Linux Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS).
Le sevisi inikeza izinsiza kubakhiqizi besofthiwe nezingxenyekazi zekhompuyutha ukuze bagcine imikhiqizo yabo ibuyekeziwe. Kalula nje, ikuvumela ukuthi ubuyekeze i-UEFI namanye amafayela we-firmware ngokuzenzakalelayo ngaphandle kokungenelela komsebenzisi. Lokhu kukuvumela ukuthi wenze inqubo ngokuzenzakalelayo futhi unciphise inani lamaphutha.
URichard Hughes weRed Hat waphawula ukuthi ukuthunyelwa kwe-Acer's LVFS kwaqala nge-laptop ye-Aspire A315 kanye nezibuyekezo zayo ze-firmware. Ukusekelwa kwamanye amamodeli namanye amadivaysi kuzovela maduze, nakuba abakhiqizi bengaziniki izinsuku eziqondile. I-laptop ye-Acer Aspire 3 A315-55 ngokwayo iyisixazululo esingabizi esisekelwe kuphrosesa ye-Intel. Ezinye izinguqulo zale modeli zifaka ihluzo ze-NVIDIA, isibonisi esingu-1080p, futhi ziza nazo Windows 10 ngokuzenzakalelayo.
Qaphela ukuthi ngonyaka odlule i-American Megatrends yajoyina i-Linux Vendor Firmware Service. Lokhu kufanele kusize ukwenza indawo yama-AMI ibe yejwayelekile ku-ecosystem ye-Linux futhi kuhlanganise ubuchwepheshe bokubuyekeza i-UEFI. Ngenxa yalokho, konke lokhu kuzothuthukisa ukuphepha futhi kunciphise izingozi uma kwenzeka kuba nezibuyekezo ze-firmware ezingalungile noma ezinonya. Kunoma yikuphi, lena yimigomo eshiwo yinkampani.
