Notes on My Remarkable Tablet
Apart from camera, almost everything is working correctly. Camera doesn't work at all.
https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface
I use this kernel, you can use this with most operating systems.
I use xournal++ for note writing, and using GNOME is necessary. KDE doesn't have support for screen rotation etc. When you use GNOME, make sure to disable gestures and screen edge detection, because that might occasionally cause problems.
So, the workflow is quite simple with xournal++, you run a `inotify` based watched which automatically compiles and pushes stuff on every save. I of course assume that only `xournal++` on tab can change those handwritten notes. You can get some fancier git logic if needed.
```

Microsoft's next Surface laptops will reportedly be its first true 'AI PCs'
There's support for Linux on the Surface range:
https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/wiki/Supporte...
But actual users seem to say it's a bit of a mixed bag.
If someone's looking for a laptop (that doesn't need touchscreen support), then Apple laptops are probably the better choice.

Surface Pro 2017 didn't boot USB flash drive(s) and system
How to get out of this situation? Links https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/issues/1240 - the same problem as I have and the same puncture, but the person managed to get out of the situation https://www.reddit.com/r/SurfaceLinux/comments/16d40vs/kill_my_surface_pro_2017_need_help/ - my similar post in a nearby subreddit, but since I'm here, the problem turned out to be bigger than I thought

Should have you covered.
I went the 12” MacBook route which can also install Linux.

New Linux Tablet from Star Labs
I have a surface with Ubuntu and the Surface Kernel (https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface) , and it works really wonderfully. I will say, before installing the Surface Kernel, it was very janky.

Linux distribution on Surface Laptop?
I know about https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface but I'm looking for practical feedback from people who did the operation in order to orient my choice.

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.
