Dual boot was not tested. The laptop does not have a CD drive, so you have to use a USB stick. The UEFI also would not startup from the USB stick, but you can browse the USB, and choose the loader.efi to startup from. ## Issues ### Tablet Mode The kernel does not receive any ACPI events when trying to switch to tablet mode. Adding the acpi_osi="!Windows*" acpi_osi="Windows 2015" does not make a difference. The following is the relevant section of the DSDT table: ``` Device (VBPA) { Name (_HID, "INT33D6" /* Intel Virtual Buttons Device */) // _HID: Hardware ID Method (_STA, 0, NotSerialized) // _STA: Status { If ((OSYS >= 0x07DD)) { Return (0x0F) } Else { Return (Zero) } } Name (VBST, Zero) Method (VBDL, 0, NotSerialized) { If ((^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.ECOK == One)) { If ((^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.CVTS == Zero)) { VBST = 0x40 } Else { VBST = Zero } } } Method (VGBS, 0, NotSerialized) { If ((^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.ECOK == One)) { If ((^^PCI0.LPCB.EC0.CVTS == Zero)) { VBST = 0x40 } Else { VBST = Zero } } Return (VBST) /* \_SB_.VBPA.VBST */ } } ``` ### Speaker Only the front speakers work out of the box right now. ### Accelerometer The accelerometer is not found by any userspace programs, Running `G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all /usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy ` from [iio-sensor-proxy](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/iio-sensor-proxy/) gives ` ** (process:12472): DEBUG: 11:45:31.305: Could not find any supported sensors ` ### Discrete Video Support for this will be available with Mesa 18.1, and linux 4.18.
