Fedora's a bit wonky with some Asus laptops though. If Fedora is flawless with an XPS 13, I'd probably buy that.
- iio-sensor-proxy has a 90 degree offset by default, meaning that the display is rotated to portrait mode when the laptop is flat. This was the biggest problem IMO, but locking the rotation once fixes it for subsequent boots. Rotating the laptop to portrait puts the display in landscape mode, so iio-sensor-proxy is either reversing the orientation from the sensor or the sensor is reversed.
- There are wifi errors in the log when shutting down. Something about key removal, but has no impact when using
- Really odd ^@^@^@^@^@^@^@... pattern also when shutting down
- Boot takes 3-5 minutes with full disk encryption, but I have a mechanical drive
- dmesg had some other strange things in it, but I remember thinking "Is there any platform where boot results in no error messages? That would be nice". I'm sure Windows has similar things.
- sandGorgon 9y agoI have a XPS 13. Fedora was the only distribution that installed with nvme disks. Super happy with it.
- mkesper 9y agoDebian 9 also installs without problems on NVMe.
