Surface 4 Pro, Linux Mint, Surface Pen Buttons
So with the help of this wonderful article (https://github.com/jakeday/linux-surface/issues/495) I managed to get the button(s) on my Surface pen switched around so the correct button acts as a right click.

Mint on SurfacePro 4 stylus button glitch
I even finally figured out how to swap the stylus buttons so that I can get a "right click" out of things thanks to this article.

Trying out NixOS
There's clearly some people talking about this sort of thing. And it's a surface, so chances are you don't want to use the main kernel.

Issue with laptop shutting down when I close the lid [GNOME]
Have you done much Googling? I found this bug report talking about Surface users having issues with suspend. Looks like doing hibernate, instead, works?

Wifi adapter disconnects from every now and then.
I had a similar issue on my Surface Pro 3 which resolved after doing a clean install of 21.04 (was on 20.04). I also installed the custom kernel for the surface, and it's been working like a charm ever since.

Microsoft Is Driving Users Away
Always useful to look at the seemingly endless stream of Linux information, the Arch wiki:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ASUS_ROG_Zephyrus_G14_(2022...
Also NixOS has a nixos-hardware repository with configurations for some laptops:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware/tree/master/asus/zep...
Reasonably legible if you ever programmed anything

A couple nooby questions
Btw, for starters, I think you can learn a lot by checking other's configurations and from things like https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware. There are a lot of useful/essential configurations that are not enabled by default.

Setup -Advice or another attempt to dive deep
in that case do note that this module assumes you use nixos-hardware, otherwise you can remove lines 161-165. I can also send you my VM's libvirtd .xml file when you get around to creating it.

Xorg fails to start with the modesetting driver
My computer is a Lenovo Legion 5 Pro with a dual GPU setup (AMD iGPU + Nvidia DGPU) where I'm using a "hybrid mode" configuration provided by nixos-hardware, using PRIME offload.
Not too long ago nixos-hardware changed the default Xorg driver for AMD to modesetting from amdgpu.
