Update Linux firmware from terminal

We will use fwupd which should be installed. If not, install it using package manager.

Open terminal and update your system:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Next, just use the following commands. It will start the daemon, refresh the list of available firmware and install updates.

sudo systemctl start fwupd

sudo fwupdmgr refresh

sudo fwupdmgr update

That's it. After that your firmware will be up to date.
