I have half a mind to write a Python script... Not necessary to send the extracted software. If and when I want to see the new firmware, I'm perfectly happy to download that big file; however, it does not make sense for some user who is using the openSUSE script to wait through a large download just to install firmware. > >> I notice in your extraction that there are now ucode files for >> revisions 16, 17, 19, 20, and 21. > > Yes, indeed. So are these the source of the FW12/13/14/... numbering? No. Michael assigns a new number whenever he releases a new version. All the new files are supposed to be listed with that number. At least I think that is the way it works. Version 12 is the last one released.
