- rayiner 7y agoYeah, no: https://medium.com/@hkdb/ubuntu-18-04-on-lenovo-x1-carbon-6g-d99d5667d4d5 https://medium.com/@hkdb/ubuntu-18-04-on-lenovo-x1-carbon-6g.... I did my time already. Compiled my own kernel back in the 2.2 days. Futzed with X11 mode settings. I’m too old for that now. I’ve come to the conclusion that, especially for mobile devices, developing the OS separately from the hardware is a disastrous idea. It makes no sense. The people best suited to do things like tweak the throttling profile or USB power management settings are the folks who built the machine.
- tbrock 7y agoI haven't done anything like that and my experience has been great. I'm not even running Ubuntu or Fedora or anything like that, just vanilla arch linux.
