I have the older version with the 6900HS but it’s more or less the same. I’ve run pop_os as well as fedora on it. Everything works great but you’ll have to compile the wifi driver https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89 https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89.
- alchemist1e9 3y agoThank you! Was hoping to learn people are doing it. I’m mainly interested in it having the Nvidia RTX 3050 6GB as mobile GPU for hw encoding and decoding and some CUDA. Have you run into any problems with their fancy power modes or mixing onboard AMD graphics and the NVIDIA card?
- alexgaribay 3y agoSurprisingly it has been smooth. Power modes work as you would expect even across OSes. I always run the graphics mode in hybrid mode to I’m using the integrated chip 90% of the time until something really needs the 3050. In Gnome, you can explicitly launch an application using the dGPU or you can set the environment variables on the application shortcut to always use the dGPU.
- alchemist1e9 3y agoThat’s impressive. Perhaps AMD pushed good power features into the kernel. Great news. Hopefully the new one will work likewise.
