Updating with the latest firmware on linux?

Featured Replies

Hi,

Would it be possible to update the Skip to the latest firmware from linux? F.ex. by using tools like dfu-util?

Unfortunately I don't have access to Windows or Mac and can't run the provided update tool.

Hm, managed to update firmware from ver. 4.12.6 to 4.13.10 by starting windows in docker.

Used the setup described at https://github.com/dockur/windows.

(Is legal as the images are downloaded from Microsoft and uses trial licenses.)

Used a docker compose file that looks like this:

services:
  windows:
    image: dockurr/windows
    container_name: windows
    environment:
      VERSION: "win11"
      ARGUMENTS: "-device usb-host,vendorid=0x20a0,productid=0x0007 -device usb-host,vendorid=0x20a0,productid=0x0008"
    devices:
      - /dev/kvm
      - /dev/bus/usb
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    ports:
      - 8006:8006
      - 3389:3389/tcp
      - 3389:3389/udp
    stop_grace_period: 2m
    volumes:
      - /tmp/skip:/data

By dropping the windows version of the skip app in /tmp/skip and starting the remote in DFU mode,
the skip app went through the firmware update on startup (after installation).

Btw., the windows UI works best if accessed using RDP, f.ex. by using remmina or similar.

Next step will be to see if I can get recorded some remotes I have and that are not in the database.
