Comment on What is the state of updating the BIOS on the Steam Deck/Bazzite?
Fubarberry@sopuli.xyz 2 weeks agoFrom looking at Bazzite documentation, ujust is a collection of scripts that run different updaters/etc. It does cover bios updates by running ujust enable-deck-bios-firmware-updates
.
From looking at the Bazzite github, this runs a shell script that checks to make sure you have Steam Deck hardware and don’t have the DeckHD replacement screen or 32GB ram mods installed, and then enables jupiter-biosupdate.service
. I’m guessing that service is probably using fwupd for updates, but haven’t been able to confirm it yet. If anyone else has some insight I’d be interested to hear it. I know the bazzite founder is active here but I’m going to restrain myself from pinging him and wasting his time over curiosity.

This is correct. Anyone using Bazzite that wasn’t aware of this should type “ujust” into the terminal to give you a list of pre-made “recipes”.
Tons of very useful shit. Lots of useful things specifically for gaming, but also non-gaming related stuff.
I use Bazzite on my laptop

Okay, this is great. I know about ujust but didn’t know it could even update the BIOS
