E15 g2 and linux
Battery recalibration doesn't work. You will need to install acpi-call-dkms to solve the problem. Sadly the package is outdated in Ubuntu (probably debian too) so you will need to compile a newer version from here.

Does Matebook x pro 2021 work fine with linux?
I use an older laptop (2018 i7 + gpu) running Manjaro gnome. Fingerprint reader does not work however there is some guys on a discord channel that work on reversing the windows driver https://github.com/mpi3d/goodix-fp-dump. Battery will be lower but I think that's mostly because of compatibility with Nvidia drivers and electron / chromium apps with their default configuration. Most notably YouTube playback in any chromium based browser will be running without HW acceleration out of the box. There are some guides on how to improve some it but you'll have to spend some time on it.
- No MonoAudio and FingerprintDriver
- How could I pay a developer to get currently unsupported hardware working?

Fingerprint reader doesn't work. Mine is a Goodix and there isn't a driver for my model. Some people are reversing the driver with good progress: https://github.com/mpi3d/goodix-fp-dump
