As a lifelong Windows user I’ve just for the first time switched to Ubuntu and I’m learning how to navigate the system but I haven’t found an easy way to update my Carbon’s X1 Gen 6 BIOS from its hard disk and would appreciate any advice.
I’d be also happy to hear what I should do as a newcomer to Ubuntu to make my experience with it better and have an easier time overall.
On Ubuntu, there is a program called “Firmware Updater” which uses LVFS to retrieve and install firmware updates (including BIOS/UEFI).
According to this page: https://fwupd.org/lvfs/devices/com.lenovo.ThinkPadN23ETXXW.firmware your Carbon X1 Gen 6 should be supported.
