remark: |
Needs published EFI workaround to boot, Nvidia workaround not to
OOPSing during install. I got the touchscreen working, once. USB-C does
not work at all, but might be broken hardware. Touchpad palm suppression
stinks, and the "Fn-f9" key to turn the touchpad off doesn't work; I had
to bind a script to "WIN-f9" to turn it off before I could type without
the cursor jumping around all the time. External-monitor config is not
remembered from one connection to the next, and always prefers
60Hz/reduced-resolution over 30Hz/full-resolution. I had to configure
enough RAM for two displays, in X, manually. Alcor Micro AU6621 MMC/SD
slot did not work with 4.x kernels, but works under a 5.x kernel. Camera
works. Intel 7265 wifi needs non-free "iwl" firmware. Have not tried
Bluetooth. Suspend/resume works. "Fn" screen brightness, volume control
keys work. Have not tried the Nvidia GM107/960M GPU. M.2 NVMe works.
