Product: HP Pavilion Gaming - TG01-0021no
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a HP Pavilion Gaming - TG01-0021no with the latest bios currently available. I'm dualbooting Ubuntu Linux which I was specifically told by the store where I bought it was supported. However I'm  having problems with the AMD RDRAND bug witch is explained here: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/10/how-a-months-old-amd-microcode-bug-destroyed-my-weekend/

Minecraft for instance wont start at all and they say: "This issue seems to happen to AMD Ryzen 3rd geneneration CPU:s in combination with Linux. Performing a BIOS update should repair your system."

AMD says the fix has been released ages ago, but it has to be implemented by the vendor via a bios upgrade, and I'm wondering if such an update is coming for this motherboard?
