all-ways-egpu VS ExpansionCards

Try all-ways-egpu.

My setup currently uses and eGPU and I was wondering how well that works on hyprland? right now I'm using gnome on wayland with the all-ways-egpu script. the script has the option to set compositor variables for wlroots to make it use the eGPU and I was wondering if this'll work on hyprland the same way it's meant to work on sway? I'm asking because the docs say to use a different desktop portal for hyprland so I'm not sure how much I can rely on wlroots compatibility.

The scripts are all-ways-egpu for Wayland and egpu-switcher for X11.

I do it with this.

There is the all-ways-egpu tool. I had some issues with it in the past, but that was already a while ago, so might be worth testing it out if it works for you.

Hey have you tried my [all-ways-egpu](https://github.com/ewagner12/all-ways-egpu) script? It is supposed to do this for you

This is the utility I used to configure X11 and this is the utility I used for Wayland. I tinkered with them both a fair amount and they're both pretty good, but neither let's you dock/undock seamlessly. I don't eGPU full-time, but I still have it configured for X11 on Pop!_OS 22.04, so I just connect the eGPU and reboot to use it.

I think the SD module won't be able to have the card flush, as the modules are only and SD cards are 32mm long, and you need some PCB space for the socket cage and the USB-C on the other side. The retrofit PCB outline they provide is only 26.9mm from front edge to back edge, so an SD card will stick out a little bit.

So perhaps they decided to go for the one that lets users have the card flush for use like an expansion bay as well as for data transfer to/from devices.

There are many laptops and desktops that fit the bill.

Frame.work: https://frame.work/

Dell: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000138246/linux-on-...

System76: https://system76.com/laptops

Kubuntu Focus: https://kfocus.org/land/business

I am sure there are more, this is only what I have found in less than 5 minutes of searching.

I'll buy a frame.work long before I touch system76. Their prices are too high for the general feedback I keep seeing on the quality control. I'm not spending 3k+ to be out a laptop until support responds. Especially, considering they still don't make these in house..

No they didn't, companies just mostly gave up on it.

A Framework Laptop (https://frame.work)

You could get a Framework 13 which comes with your choice of a 7840U or 7640U and a Radeon 780M iGPU. They do officially support Linux, and you don't have to pay for a Windows license, if you go the DIY option and chose to not get a Windows license.

Take a look at the Framework laptops. They're 100% modular so if stuff like that goes bad you can simply order the replacement part and do it yourself. I'm using a desktop right now but Ithink my next laptop is gonna be a framework.

a couple of days ago I tried to order a Framework laptop (13 inch AMD). I chose to create an account during the checkout process and provided my email address. After entering my shipping details, I authorized the transfer of the deposit fee via Giropay. The deposit was deducted from my bank account but when I was sent back to the frame.work website I was greeted by an error message. Unfortunately I could neither complete the checkout process nor continue my account registration.
