There seems to be two issues: 1. When clicking "update" on the firmware update, you do not get a notification to restart the machine. I do get a notification if I click the "Update All" button in the top-right corner.
2. After clicking "Update" but before the restart, the update re-appears in the list of updates. This gives me the impression that the update failed. I see two possible solutions: a) don't show the update after the update process has started. b) change the "update" button to a "restart to update" button that prompts to restart the machine on click.

Gnome software reports there is a new firmware update. 2. I click "update now" 3. The update disappears for a few seconds, then reappears. 4. When I reboot my laptop, the laptop goes into firmware update modus, updates the firmware, and starts Ubuntu. What I expect: After clicking "update now", Gnome software tells me my computer has to restart the update. Either the update is listed and greyed out with a "reboot required" message, or the update is not visible.
