Linux Touchpad Like MacBook Update: 2023 Progress on Smooth Scrolling
It's a little more than that, they then added subpixel and momentum scrolling support to Chrome that bypasses X11 and does something custom [1]. Integration problems like this one that require a bunch of coordination are harder to do in open source land.

ChromeOS is splitting the browser from the OS, getting more Linux-y
I'm guessing GP means natively, not in a VM. I've been super grateful for the VM-based method, but I still prefer the native experience like that provided by Crouton[1]. With Crouton being "maintenance-only" now I share GP's hope that a similar thing will be possible and easy.

Can I rigg a Chromebook to install Linux on it? Not the virtual Linux they have an option for, I want to replace Chrome OS entirely with Linux.
At any rate, you can try Breath, Crouton, Manjaro... those are three of the distros people have found success with. It all boils down to the specific hardware involved... which we know nothing about since you kept that to yourself.

when i try to install ubuntu with crouton on my hp chromebook 11 it says all these errors even though its in developer mode the first error when i type,sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -t unity, says ssh: 0: Refusing to exec /home/chronos/user/Downloads/crouton from noexec mount; see https://chromium.goo
Post in r/crouton and refer to https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton if you haven't already. However, I think it's fair to say that Crouton is now broken to the point of being effectively dead.
