[PATCH 0/2] gnu: Add fwupd and sort patch list. |
Date: |
Thu, 4 Feb 2021 00:14:17 +0100 |
Hello!
fwupd can be used to install firmware cab files manually in this state, these
cab files could be built by other GNU Guix packages for firmware such as:
<https://github.com/meklort/bcm5719-fw> ; It has the advantage that it contains
automation for updating firmware of lots of hardware.
I also sorted the patch list using "sort-lines" Emacs function, because it was
easier for me to insert the fwupd patches without having to sort alphabetically
by eye.
Thank you

Hmm maybe we should discuss that separately.
