Hi all,
when I started my system today I noticed a red “failed” entry when the initial messages were running through at boot.
Getting curious what that was I looked it up after the system had started. I found this message:
lnav

│Sep 23 13:10:33 rosika-10159 systemd[1]: Failed to start Refresh fwupd metadata and update motd. │
So I tried to the following:
systemctl status fwupd-refresh.service
● fwupd-refresh.service - Refresh fwupd metadata and update motd

Hmm, seems something is not right there.
I´m still at a loss here. Up till now all this hadn´t been an issue.
My last system update was on 2022-09-20 when I received the latest kernel 5.4.0-126-generic.
No idea whether this had anything to do with it. I may be wrong there.
Has anybody got any idea what might be going on
Thanks so much and many greetings
Rosika
