Nice to here that you got linux running on the new HP Spectre X360 Late 2016.
Do you really speak from this model: HP Spectre x360 13-w090nz (13.30", Full HD, Intel Core i7-7500U, 16GB, SSD) ? And did you have any issues installing linux? Everythings works out of the box? Touchscreen, Sound, etc.? Which distro do you use?
Thanks a lot for your reply!
- baumandm 10y agoSorry for the late reply... I actually have the 13-w023dx, which I think is just the Best Buy-specific model number. All the specs match exactly. I installed Arch Linux with KDE, and most things worked with minimal configuration, including wifi, touchpad, touchscreen, power management. Sound works, but I think only the bottom speakers are on, not the top ones. Also I'm not sure if Bluetooth works, as I haven't had a need to try it. And then finally the 2-in-1 mode doesn't really work, because screen rotation and disabling the keyboard/touchpad aren't automated. I would expect other distros to work as well or better, especially if they have a more automated installation process than Arch.
