i just found flashrom in the repo
https://www.flashrom.org/Flashrom

I'm not yet sure if this is safe, but it looks like this could be a very
interesting tool.

The following affects Lubuntu as well, so we need more testing.

Thank you, Einar. I contacted with the DuckDuckGo guys, and they were
very kind. They also made a custom search command (#lubuntu) for us!

Regarding the new site, I must say it all began as a simple blog coming
along the main website. One of its functions was informing about the
updates, install parties and artwork. The "problem" is that it started
to grow up, and I kept the release information more up to date than the
"official" site itself. That's how it began a whole site about Lubuntu,
with news, blog, and more sections. And we're planning to expand it even
more.

Nowadays, when Lubuntu sees a new release, we update lubuntu.me the very
moment it happens. lubuntu.net delays it, even weeks after the release
date. That's why I can't consider it very official, as its owner isn't
carrying out the community functions he signed for. The day I can't
comply with my duties, I'll resign and more admins will take care of it.
This is how it works.

Title:
  Confusing for users with many websites

Status in Lubuntu Artwork:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Hi! I have used Lubuntu for many years and thought the lubuntu.net
  webstte was the official site for lubuntu. I have subscribed to the
  RSS feed to get news, but lately, there have been very few. Recently,
  I discovered the lubuntu.me website. It seems more active and the blog
  is up to date on news. There is no indication on either that they are
  not official, but on the bottom of both, there seems to be information
  pointing towards both being owned by individuals, not by the Lubuntu
  project. This makes it hard to know which is the official site, if
  any. Would it not be less confusing for users to have one website and
  make the other address redirect to it?

flashrom utility must be safe on any of the supported hardware.
