After updating my uefi (coreboot) on my #StarliteMkV I kept getting a uefi menu on Boot, I was however able to boot from uefi and then did a reinstall of grub and now its fixed. Looks like my uefi menu got deleted or messed up on Firmware upgrade.

Okay, here is my first impression of my @starlabssystems #StarLiteMKV tablet:

It's chunky. Oh boy. It's also heavy. It doesn't feel cheap, it's sturdy and it's quite beautiful.

I like the display. Even though it's not 3K anymore, the 2K screen is great. The touchscreen is not really too great for KDE plasma (non mobile), so I will see if I can get plasma mobile packaged for Void sometime later.

The keyboard is fine, the key travel is ok. [1/?]

Got my @starlabssystems #StarliteMkV #starlite5 tablet, sadly I wont be able to test it until after Christmas.

I am happy to finally have it and can't wait to set it up for productive (and unproductive) working. :-)

My #starlabssystems order is on the way! Time to get excited!

If you dont know them, take a look at @starlabssystems for linux devices!

Hey @starlabssystems , are you aware of any alternative cases for the #StarLiteMkV ? I would be interested in anything, no matter if readymade by #StarLabs, a third party or if I have to print it myself.

Updating the firmware on a @starlabssystems #StarLite (#StarLiteMkV)

@starlabssystems I also received mine yesterday and I'm already in love with it!

I put Debian 12 on it and it's really nice in tablet mode with GNOME!
I also managed to get an onscreen keyboard for the LUKS HDD encryption, thanks to osk-sdl!

I also ordered a Starport Dock and it's going to replace my desktop computer entirely.
Also with the MPP pen it makes a nice notepad together with Xournal.

The only thing that is a bit inconvinient is the missing kick stand without the type cover. But I'm sure I'll find a solution for that, as well.

Thanks for the great device!

@starlabssystems @opensuse Now I'll spend some time tinkering around with the device. A simple @kde #Plasma is already running on it. So far, so good. Let's see how I can force it into using #PlasmaMobile because that's what I would like to test out with the #StarLiteMkV.

@alex @starlabssystems I've experienced the same periodical backlight flickers in my brief test of the device. Good to know it is worked on and will be fixed in an update soon! :) #Starlite #StarLiteMkV

Oh right, a few more quick notes about the @starlabssystems #StarLite (#StarLiteMkV):

- The device runs hot while idling on the desktop. It's unbearable to hold it for more than a few seconds. Sean has mentioned that this might have to do with...
- The touchscreen stops responding from time to time. There's nothing one can do but reboot the machine, as it seems. A patch is already provided to #LVFS and should be available soon. This patch might also reduce the temperature due to the load.

OK, so one of the first impressions with my @starlabssystems #StarLiteMkV is that I can't #boot from the internal #microSD slot.

Just one question about this: Why!?

It has arrived. @starlabs #StarLite #StarLiteMkV #Linux #Tablet
