How to update BIOS on a system that only use Linux as OS.

Asking this because some clowns at Acer decided that they will only provide BIOS updates through Windows Update.

Edit: I'm not talking about installing the BIOS file. They don't even provide BIOS file in the first place.

    Tuxedo, Framework, Slimbook, System76, Starlabs are Linux-first vendors with an excellent track record.

      I know and Framework is just mouth watering. And Chad76 created their own distro and DE.

      it's just sad that they are not selling on my country.

        Yes. Tuxedo is German, Slimbook Spanish, Starlabs British, NovaCustom Dutch.... Framework is US/Taiwanese but sells within select EU countries and the UK. AFAIK S76 is US/Canada only.

        Edit: most of these actually ship worldwide but won't collect VAT and probably won't honor warranty claims outside their territory.
