I’m using Ubuntu Studio, 25.04, kernel 6.17.0-19-generic.
When I run:
sudo apt install lshw dmidecode -y && sudo dmidecode | grep -A3 'Vendor:\\|Product:' && sudo lshw -
C cpu | grep -A3 'product:\\|vendor:'
I get:

The BIOS version is still 03.04. This is despite having updated the BIOS using EFI (through a USB) to version 03.19, which I’m absolutely sure of because I did it twice and the second time I was told that I couldn’t update the bios to the same version. What’s going on?
