I posted this in the Hackaday comment thread as well: If I am not mistaken, Valve instigated the creation of this part as an element of the VirtualLink standard. This standard achieved four lanes of DisplayPort and USB 3.0 over a USB-C conn

It feels strange to be used as a reference point, but we’ll take it! Like other folks on this thread, I’m interested in seeing what you do with Simula One. I agree that it is the sort of ambitious though likely niche product that is worth

Arriving at this thread late, but we have never paid a reviewer and it’s unlikely we ever will. For reviewers like Linus Tech Tips and other YouTubers who do a mix of sponsored and non-sponsored reviews (and provide a clear disclaimer of w

I wrote a blog post yesterday about how I think about hardware startups, which generalizes some of how Framework has worked so far: https://eclecti.cc/bytes/what-hardware-is-hard-really-means I would like to write more

We're currently hiring in the US and Taiwan, where we have entities set up. We will likely set up an EU entity to open up hiring there too, but we don't have a timeline for that at the moment.

On the other hand, smaller competitors can be more nimble and adopt counter-positioned business models that benefit from device longevity. In that way, regulations around repair have little impact to those companies while having outsized i

We took that feedback and wrote step-by-step guides on setting up a few popular Linux distributions, calling out what items work out of the box and what needs manual workarounds. For now, we recommend Fedora 35 as the best distro to use wh

We used the chromium-ec logic as-is (checking git blame), but I believe did tune the debounce timer to match the characteristics of the keyboard itself.

On the USB-C issues, if you could drop a ticket in https://frame.work/support#contact_support and mention this thread, that would be great. Thanks!

In that case, we definitely want to understand what is occurring, because that is pretty unusual. I would recommend either commenting in the 21.04 thread or creating a new thread in our Linux sub-forum on this, so that both us and members

Thanks for the feedback! Andrew noted in a sibling comment what the issue was with the AX210 in Linux. Intel has informed us that the patch is going into kernel 5.17. In retrospect had we known how many issues we'd see with AX210 rel

I noted this elsewhere, but we've been providing the team at Fedora with hardware, which has helped make Fedora 35 work great out of the box. We've also been doing that with some smaller distros like Elementary. That isn't

Yep! It's a hardware cut-off on both the camera and microphones. For the Expansion Cards, there are some discussions on holders for them as well as 3D printed designs from the community: https://community.frame.work/t&

Standby battery drain in deep sleep in Linux is something we're investigating. We have seen enough reports of it to know there is an issue there, but one that does not occur in Windows. We do strongly recommend updating to 3.07. The

We definitely want to help you resolve these issues. Most of them sound like specific compatibility challenges on Ubuntu 21.10. To be clear, I agree that we need to get better with new Ubuntu releases. We've been providing hardware
