Hello I've updated my bios with an ISO image to version 572.
After reboot, I wento to the update manager to check but the only additional drivers proposed are those given by the PPA (see my fist post). yann@yann-desktop:~$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date [sudo] password for yann: DPP3510J.86A.0572.2009.0715.2346 07/15/2009 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1363661 Title: no proprietary driver Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello I've switched from ubuntu 14.04 32 bits to 14.04 64 bits.
