Gnome software often shows me Device Firmware updates in the Updates tab:
Usually, clicking the "Update" button runs them. That seems like generally expected behavior. In this case, when I click update the looping arrow at the top left spins and says "Checking" for a few seconds and then the Update just re-appears on the list.
Last week I was trying to run these and getting the same behavior. I later interrupted a kernel update and assumed that my trouble booting was connected to the firmware updates. (See Interrupted a device firmware update and now I can't boot into Ubuntu) but it seems I was wrong about that.
But now I see that actually the firmware updates are still waiting. Is there a trick to getting them to run or seeing why they haven't run? A log I should review perhaps?
