What distro did you use, and how did it go? Edit: I've pulled the trigger on a Surface Pro 4. I'll make a new post in a week with my early impressions, which distro I've gone with, etc etc etc.
[–] patchwork@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Which Gen X1 did you get? I've been looking at those, but I am not sure which Gen will have the best compatibility. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Raimu@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago I got a gen 3, basically what is not working are : Internal MIcrophone Back Camera Fingerprint reader FnLock key Everything else is working well enough so far for me. S2idle is working way more reliably on this device than on my SP4 but with a bit a tinkering I think that you can get S3 sleep working. permalink fedilink source parent
