LVFS Nets Phoenix

Phoenix joins the LVFS
Just like AMI, Phoenix is a huge firmware vendor, providing the firmware for millions of machines. If you’re using a ThinkPad right now, you’re most probably using Phoenix code in your mainboard firmware. Phoenix have been working with Lenovo and their ODMs on LVFS support for a while, fixing all the niggles that was stopping the capsule from working with the loader used by Linux. Phoenix can help customers build deliverables for the LVFS that use UX capsule support to make flashing beautiful, although it’s up to the OEM if that’s used or not.

Firmware Vendor Phoenix Tech Joins The LVFS For Linux Firmware Updates
Last month firmware vendor AMI joined the Linux Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS) while today the other big firmware vendor, Phoenix Technologies, is also backing LVFS for their OEM/ODM partners that want to distribute firmware update capsules on this RedHat-based service.
Phoenix provides the basic firmware implementation for the likes of Lenovo ThinkPads, Tuxedo Computers, and plenty of other OEM/ODM partners for motherboards. Phoenix has already been helping their partners with UEFI firmware updates on LVFS and now they will continue doing so as an official member. But it will still be up to their actual customers to want to engage with LVFS support for their products.
