    Hi Station2013

    2013 Ultraslim Docking Station

    Hp ultraslim docking station firmware
    I own a Elitbook Folio 9470m and a 2013 Ultraslim Docking Station.
    On the Elitebook I run Linux (Mint 18).
    The Dockingstatioin never showed the BIOS/UEFI output on the Screen. (Screen stays black until OS loads. I found an article saying this is a known problem for some Notebooks and the solution is to update the BIOS. I am already on the newest BIOS-version and the Problem Persists. This is the article I found: http://h20566.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/publ ... -c05047623 but it does not mention the Folio 9470m as a model that suffers this problem)
    Since I use a Harddrive Password this is annoying, because I have to type the password without corresponding screen output and cannot enter the UEFI while the Laptop is docked.
    I recently found out that there is an update for the Dockingstations Displayport HUB which I guess could fix my Problem. ( found here: http://h20565.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/publ ... =4158#tab2 )

    Sadly this Update is only provided as an EXE file, which I cannot run on Linux (I really don't want to try a Hardware firmwareupdate over WINE).

    For Bios updates for example there are other ways to perform these under linux, as for example to create a USB stick over which the Update can be done.
    Is there a Way to update the Firmware of my Dockingstation running Linux, for example over a VM? (Other than installing Windows on my Elitebook just to perform the update, which I will not do...)
    Best regards
