Was wondering what tablets you run Linux on.

  • What’s good?
  • What’s not so good?
  • What’s worth mentioning?

    I have a Lenovo 10e Chromebook tablet running Postmarket Os.

    • Setup was straightforward and relatively easy.
    • The only major hardware failure was the built-in camera. Though I have much better cameras on multiple different devices. So it wasn’t a big loss. USF pen support worked out of the box. No issues, no special instructions. It was just there.
    • The octocore four large arm cores, four small arm cores, provide a solid experience under KDE plasma. You aren’t going to win any CPU drag races, but it gets you where you want to go most of the time.
    • The major downfall of this system is probably the four gigabytes of RAM. If you are a tab whore like myself. Or painting large documents, et cetera, in Krita. You will hit swap quickly, which degrades the experience a bit.
    • the only other knock against it. I seem to remember was widevine support. (Netflix HBO Max etc) It’s not supported as well on many arm devices, but it is there if I remember correctly. However there were hoops to jump through.
