As someone who just this week tried to put Linux on a Surface (laptop 4), I can categorically say I'm not going to try that again. Totally broken, not even booting properly.
- DANmode 3y agoTo be fair...Windows 11 on the Surface Laptop line is janky as shit. I'd be far more interested in what experiences people are having with Linux on a proper Surface Tablet.
- wildrhythms 3y agoI remember working at an IT desk and trying to help a poor college student with their Surface Tablet, it would immediately thermal throttle just opening Microsoft Word, the whole unit slowed to a crawl. I helped them remove the bundled antivirus trial crapware and turn off a bunch of startup junk, but between the performance and the uncomfortable keyboard and trackpad it seemed like a miserable device to use for any serious purpose.
