Welcome to a new version of the EFI. This update brings many changes to fix small bugs. With tremendous help from adirosebrigg we managed to fix the broken touchscreen and also the WWAN support. Also, Windows no longer boots with a dimmed screen due to the addition of a missing SSDT-XOSI patch (sigh). In addition, (thanks to adirosebrigg suggestion) Linux support has also been added with an ext4 driver.

Unfortunately, with macOS Ventura, support for the SMBIOS we use (MacBookPro12.1 or MacBook Pro 13" early 2015) has been dropped. This means that support for this laptop also ends. However, as long as Apple still has the Broadwell graphics driver included, Ventura may work OOTB. I will try to install macOS Ventura on my E7250 and report on the 'discussions' page. I will add the 'discussions' page soon. With the official public release of Ventura, I will change the EFI update to quarterly (unless it's something important).

I'm glad I was able to support this laptop (with the huge help of this community) from Mojave to Monterey :) Let's see how long we can keep using this machine until Apple blocks us with a barrier.
