Yes, I hope you can get the firmwares. The one you have now is not "production quality" firmare so you should not really have that there in the first place and Clevo should definitely provide you an upgrade. Note this is separate from the BIOS. But your BIOS has issue too regarding the USB4 power contract that is required by Microsoft so I would expect that you should get that one upgraded too. The patch I shared earlier should deal with all the other cases except that weird one where we do not seem to get unplugs (and the resource is available) which is not how the firmware is expected to work. I was planning to submit it upstream after some more validation on our end, probably afer v6.13-rc1 is released. I'll CC you. If/when you get the new firmare I would definitely appreciate if your folks could give it a try.
