This is the laptop in question. It has an x86 processor so basically any distro should work on it. However, it is still a Chromebook which likely means Google fuckery in the BIOS. But it’s great value for the money (can get it $300 off at Costco) and if I can plop Linux on to it then I’d love it.
Hm, website indicates that it should work but that there may be no audio. Might be a no-go then :(
Just write a driver for it
Lol, I wish I could but that level of programming is beyond my abilities.
git gud
Edit: c’mon, y’all, it’s a git joke.
Use a distro with the latest kernel, like ubuntu, to have higher chances for this to be supported.
