Well, obviously I can't get it since it is now not available, which is the whole point of my message?
But if you have it installed, and only use 'zypper up', the newer one won't get removed....
Well, Ubuntu did it correctly intel-microcode/xenial-updates,xenial-security 3.20180108.0+really20170707ubuntu16.04.1 amd64 So no reverting back to older version.
Not sure how this is handled in Leap, in TW the 'dup' makes sure also downgrades take place...
Could be topic for discussion. Probably "remove from update repository" is not an option here. Although I'm currently in the same position with BIOS update - I was too fast and installed update published in January which is now silently removed. I actually verified that I do have microcode version that was removed by Intel: [ 2.115340] microcode: sig=0x306d4, pf=0x40, revision=0x28 bor@bor-Latitude-E5450:~/Загрузки$ ./usr/sbin/iucode_tool -td -Sl microcode.dat-20171117 ./usr/sbin/iucode_tool: system has processor(s) with signature 0x000306d4 selected microcodes: 001: sig 0x000306d4, pf mask 0xc0, 2017-01-27, rev 0x0025, size 17408 bor@bor-Latitude-E5450:~/Загрузки$ ./usr/sbin/iucode_tool -td -Sl microcode.dat-20180108 ./usr/sbin/iucode_tool: system has processor(s) with signature 0x000306d4 selected microcodes: 001: sig 0x000306d4, pf mask 0xc0, 2017-11-17, rev 0x0028, size 18432 Of course there is no real information what exactly is broken, although there are rumors about potential data loss. I can only be happy that this microcode actually boots (how you revert microcode that comes with BIOS? And Linux kernel won't downgrade it, I do not even see any option) Waiting for Dell support to answer whether I should (and can) downgrade BIOS ... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
