| jairo_ | tomreyn: Im back! | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| tomreyn | jairo_: did you find out whether your bios can do bios updates, yet? | 00:02 |
| jairo_ | tomreyn: so, you are look for : System Configuration: > Bootn Optons: > UEFI Boot Order? | 00:02 |
| tomreyn | oh, it's a uefi bios, ok | 00:03 |
| tomreyn | but no, that' snot what i'm looking for | 00:03 |
| jairo_ | :> USB Diskette on Key/USB Hard Disk | 00:03 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> jairo__: first of all, reboot, enter bios, see if you have an option there to install a bios update from a usb attached / "local" storage | 00:03 |
| jairo_ | I dont think this is an Option on My bios start up | 00:04 |
| tomreyn | run this: echo -n 'This system booted via: '; [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ] && echo UEFI || echo BIOS | 00:04 |
| tomreyn | what does it say? | 00:04 |
| jairo_ | This system booted via: UEFI | 00:05 |
| tomreyn | run this: sudo ls -l /boot/efi/EFI/ | nc termbin.com 9999 | 00:06 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: sudo mkdir -p /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New; sudo wget -O /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/sp86809.exe https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp86501-87000/sp86809.exe | 00:10 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: then: sudo stat --printf '%s\n' /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/sp86809.exe | 00:13 |
| tomreyn | and tell me what it reports. | 00:13 |
| tomreyn | jairo__: do you have another computer maybe? a smartphone? | 00:14 |
| jairo__ | I do | 00:15 |
| jairo__ | Another compluter com Windows 10 | 00:15 |
| tomreyn | might be good for chatting | 00:16 |
| jairo__ | ok | 00:16 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> jairo_: sudo mkdir -p /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New; sudo wget -O /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/sp86809.exe https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp86501-87000/sp86809.exe | 00:16 |

| jairo_ | it is not downloading | 00:20 |
| tomreyn | download it on windows then | 00:21 |
| tomreyn | and put it on a usb stick | 00:22 |
| tomreyn | is your connection stable on windows, though? | 00:22 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> download it on windows then | 00:23 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> and put it on a usb stick | 00:23 |
| tomreyn | <tomreyn> is your connection stable on windows, though? | 00:23 |
| tomreyn | maybe your internet connection is shaky in general? | 00:24 |
| tomreyn | i don't see how we can work like this | 00:25 |
| jairo_ | 16766824 -- What does it means? | 00:38 |
| tomreyn | the file size of the file you downloaded. thats the correct size, good | 00:41 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: so reboot, enter bios, see if you can update bios from there | 00:41 |
| jairo_ | wow! I dont think I can do it. lol | 00:41 |
| jairo_ | I dont have to use a usb? | 00:44 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: probably not, no | 00:45 |
| Swift110-mobile | Sup | 00:49 |
| jairo_ | tomreyn: Hey there | 00:54 |
| jairo_ | Im on my Windows noe | 00:55 |
| jairo_ | I am on Setup Utility But I have no idea how to update my bios | 00:57 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: so there's no option to 'update bios from local media' or similar? | 01:00 |
| tomreyn | pressing F10 during boot may get you there directly | 01:01 |
| jairo_ | gnu grub | 01:02 |
| jairo_ | *ubuntu | 01:02 |
| jairo_ | Advanced Options for Ubuntu | 01:02 |
| jairo_ | UEFI Firmware Settings | 01:03 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: you ended up on the grub menu. so you either pressed F10 too later or it has no effect | 01:09 |
| tomreyn | *too late or... | 01:10 |
| jairo_ | It has no Effect | 01:15 |
| jairo_ | tomreyn: by the way, Im not using usb | 01:19 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: your system *should* be able to install the firmware update from the efi system partition, where we placed it. but it may need to be prepared differently | 01:21 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: if you want to give it another try: mkdir /tmp/hpf; cd /tmp/hpf; sudo 7z e /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/sp86809.exe; sudo cp *.bin /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/; sudo cp platform.ini /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/; sudo cp 02209.bin /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/firmware.bin | 01:25 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: you would then need to reboot again, and try to find an option in the bios to carry out the bios upgrade | 01:26 |
| tomreyn | this is for a different HP model, but should apply similarily for your system (and that's what i'm working by): https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp86501-87000/sp86809.exe | 01:26 |
| tomreyn | "Update System BIOS" should be the option you choose in the beginning after entering "BIOS Setup" | 01:28 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: ^ | 01:28 |
| jairo_ | one min | 01:28 |
| jairo_ | The only option I got is Bios Version and Bios Vendor inside of main manu | 01:30 |
| jairo_ | could be enything with Legacy Support? | 01:31 |
| tomreyn | jairo_: no, it's not about legacy support | 01:32 |
| === jairo_ is now known as Jairo_Wind | ||
| tomreyn | press ctrl-s and ctrl-b in bios setup menu, see if this makes another menu appear | 01:32 |
| Jairo_Wind | just a beep sound on both commands | 01:34 |
| Jairo_Wind | tomreyn: Where r u from? | 01:35 |
| === jairo is now known as Guest96566 | ||
| tomreyn | the internets | 01:38 |
| tomreyn | i don't think you can upgrade the bios this way if therte's no support for it on your existing bios. you'll need to do it from a windows installation then | 01:39 |
| Jairo_Wind | mkdir /tmp/hpf; cd /tmp/hpf; sudo 7z e /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/sp86809.exe; sudo cp *.bin /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/; sudo cp platform.ini /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/; sudo cp 02209.bin /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/firmware.bin | 01:39 |
| Jairo_Wind | mkdir /tmp/hpf; cd /tmp/hpf; sudo 7z e /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/sp86809.exe; sudo cp *.bin /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/; sudo cp platform.ini /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/; sudo cp 02209.bin /boot/efi/EFI/HP/BIOS/New/firmware.bin | 01:42 |

| === jairo_ is now known as Jairo_linux | ||
| Jairo_linux | one last question, with all the information I provided here, is possible that someone use this info to hack my computer? | 01:48 |
| tomreyn | Jairo_linux: no, there's no danger there. | 01:53 |
| tomreyn | Jairo_linux: if someone was able to and really wanted to do this they would have a little bit more information *maybe* making it a little bit easier, but they'd still need to attack you by other means, probably involving your cooperation | 01:54 |
| Jairo_Wind | Just a curiosity, there is nothing to hack in this pc Its fresh installed | 01:55 |
| tomreyn | if none of thios works out, you should clean up this way in the end (make double sure you type this exactly like this): sudo rm -r /boot/efi/EFI/HP | 01:56 |
| Jairo_Wind | what does it do? | 01:57 |
| tomreyn | Jairo_Wind: it removes the firmware update files we placed on your efi system partition. this is just to clean up, so you don't run out of space there. | 02:07 |
| tomreyn | you could also keep those, if you want to try again later | 02:07 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> Why does kde constantly drop usb connection? It powers my cooler pad but doesn't detect MTP, mouse, phones | 02:19 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> And is there any way to contact kubuntu about wifi signal being extremely low? | 02:28 |
| === gabriel is now known as Guest47342 | ||
| === shvn is now known as shvn__ | ||
| IrcsomeBot | <श्री Sri> @Zoth_Ommog, I had a wifi connectivity issue with kubuntu as well. The signal issue might be because of the drivers installed. | 06:25 |
| IrcsomeBot | <Zoth_Ommog> @श्री Sri, I know, I was hoping someone had a fix. I only have one available driver source, and that's the one with problems | 06:26 |
| tomreyn | Zoth_Ommog: how to fix it (and whether you can), always depends on which wireless chipset you have. those can behave very differently, and some with different drivers. | 10:08 |
| tomreyn | lspci -knn | grep -EA3 '(Network|Ethernet) controller' | nc termbin.com 9999 would post info on your installed network devices and their drivers to termbin.com, so that you can share it. | 10:08 |
