Shout out to everyone who's contributed to #LinuxSurface (github.com/linux-surface/linux).

I got myself a surface pro 6 and it's running like a dream with #Ubuntu plus the surface kernel tweaks.

Amazing stuff 👏

Anyone here with Linux experience on the Microsoft Surface 3 (NOT THE PRO)? Someone in the family wants me to put Linux on it next year when Windows 10's support ends.

Is there anything I have to look out for? I don't want them to worry about third party kernel modules. Thinking on putting Nobara on since that has the Surface modules built-in IIRC, but ideally something simple like Mint would be perfect.

I've added an update to my article about installing Ubuntu on a Microsoft Surface Go 3 tablet. I was able to install and boot from the linux-surface kernel in the end! The stylus now works well.

[Nouvel article] Une tablette Gnunux (merci Microsoft !)

Derrière ce titre même pas trollesque (non non), un petit retour d'expérience très positif sur une tablette GNU/Linux fonctionnelle !

an excellent video for fixing the virtual keyboard issue. With this and the Linux surface kernel you can daily drive Fedora’s KDE spin on a Surface Pro onion.tube/watch?v=Dp0QhmtIP6k

@CassOfDunshire fair point. Installing #Linux on the #surface looks a bit involved, and I don't own one. If you have not already found it, github.com/linux-surface/linux lays out the steps for a large number of surface devices, and their feature matrix looks good too.
