I'm just working on a fix now. I'll be able to provide you with a new
set of binaries to test with shortly - download the .debs, install
them and see if that fixes the problem. You *will* need to temporarily
disable Secure Boot for this.

If not, I can test locally but I'll need to set up a local Windows
installation to test dual-boot and that's going to take a while...
