Maybe this could be updated so it can be used as a sanity check. There's a command fwupdtool firmware-parse but I don't think it has an option for synaptics-mst firmware type. We do have a sanity check, but I'm not going to tell you to try it in case it bricks the hardware in some way: Wouldn't it be better for the code to skip only the drm_dp_aux* devices that are from the AMD GPU? Shouldn't there be an override to allow working with AMD GPU ports in case the AMD driver gets fixed one day? The plugin doesn't run even if I connect the MST hubs only to Intel graphics. According to #1121, the problem is that accessing /dev/drm_dp_aux* causes a hang.
There's a message amdgpu has known issues with synaptics_mst. Restarting device… Īfter using -v, I found that the mst plugin doesn't run when there's an AMD gpu installed (I have an AMD W5700). Vendor: Synaptics (DRM_DP_AUX_DEV:0x06CB) The Dell equivalents of HP's Windows executable to update the firmware also seem to share common, if not identical, components.ĭo you think there is some way to perform the update relying on the eeprom file provided by HP and existing fwupd support for similar products? I noticed there is a synaptics-mst plugin in fwupd and official support for Dell docking stations with MST hubs of the same family of products (VMM****). Since I fail to perform the update using wine and cannot consider setting up a Windows partition for the moment, I would like to know if there is some way to perform it using the eeprom file from HP's official fix. eeprom file) but there are no available updates through fwupd. HP has released a fix (version 2.33) as a Windows executable (encompassing a. The current version (2.30) is listed in the output of fwupdmgr get-devices and there is a flag "Updatable".
I own an HP laptop (Folio 1040 g3) along with its docking station (HP 2013 UltraSlim Docking Station) which causes serious external display artifacts and unstability under the current firmware of the embedded Synaptics VMM2230 DisplayPort MST Hub. Hello, please forgive me and remove the issue if the following has no place in the issue tracker.
