For the ASUS GX10 users: The OTA2610 firmware is actually available on LVFS, but it’s in the testing repo, which is disabled by default.

If you are eager to try it out, you can enable the testing repo:

# fwupdmgr enable-remote lvfs-testing

It will prompt you to refresh the metadata immediately. After you do so, you should be able to get the latest firmware:

$ fwupdmgr get-updates # trimmed some outputs

However, people are having issues with the latest firmware:
How safe is it to update right now?

I guess it’s in the testing repo for a reason. Try it out at your own risk, and downgrade if you are having problems.
