This might sound like heresy, but how's Linux support on existing surfaces? This looks like a pretty attractive laptop, but I'd like to have the option to run linux for ROS stuff.
- drewrv 5y agoThis doesn’t answer your question, but it appears ROS can work with WSL. https://jack-kawell.com/2020/06/12/ros-wsl2/ https://jack-kawell.com/2020/06/12/ros-wsl2/
- jefft255 5y agoYes for sure, but there’s just less friction when running it on native Ubuntu. Especially with GUI applications with 3D acceleration, think rViz showing large 3D maps.
- jasonshaev 5y agoJust a note: one serious limitation I've encountered is that linux running under WSL2 (or WSL1 I believe) is unable to access USB. This was a show stopper for firmware development for me. The solution seems to be uh, patch the kernel? https://github.com/jovton/USB-Storage-on-WSL2 https://github.com/jovton/USB-Storage-on-WSL2
