Hi Jelle,

I've tested the fwupd on my Asus Zenbook machine - see the attached screenshot.

Without the service running the gnome-firmware or fwupdtool didn't work.

With the service running I get some information about the firmware, EFI... It hasn't been battle tested by updating anything as the firmware there is the latest.

I've also tried adding polkit extension but it seems to run without it in my case. Could you please test the patch if it works also for you, if not we can add it :-)

Check the rewritten synposis for gnome-firmware.
