Dell G5 5590 BIOS update proposals

Hello,

I played a lot with the BIOS of my G5 5590 and I noticed that some setting is missing, I'm listing them here hoping that Dell will add (some of) them in future BIOS releases:

- Hide/Display error when external power adapter is attached to Thunderbolt port: I cover this in a previous post of mine

- WOL from deep sleep state: there is no way to perform a wake on lan from a deep sleep state (hibernation, system powered off...). I can imagine that adding this setting implies that the internal circuitry actually supports the WOL from deep state (the network adapter should remain active if the system is powered off), and I don't know if this is the case

- Using external monitor on boot: I think this is self-explanatory

- Keyboard backlight configuration: this has been covered in several other posts, it's really surprising that there is no setting for this

As last consideration I think that a new sub-section specific for Dell G series should be added to the Laptop session in this community.

Thank you,

best regards

Diego
