Comment 4 for bug 1505242

I have updated the BIOS. Thank you for the help.

sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

# SMBIOS implementations newer than version 2.8 are not
# fully supported by this version of dmidecode.

There is another message, too. Perhaps relevant.

 I am changing the status to Confirmed, as requested.
