Excuse me, but #ARM for gaming will only be successful with Valve and #FEX.

Whatever does #NVIDIA and #Qualcomm for laptops with great graphics is a moot point.

#Windows11 is "getting there" so there is pressure for online gaming and anti-cheat, and the #SteamDeck exists.

It's more about a software problem rather than a #Windows problem, IMHO.

I fired up my Snapdragon X laptop over lunch to see if its been behaving, and do Windows updates. I haven't used it since November and it still had over 60% battery. Installing updates, and the silence is golden—no fan noise. I love how much less the fans on this machine turn on… shame about the spontaneous reboots and spotty Linux support though. On that, there's news that Fedora 44 will have out-of-the box support for these laptops, so I plan to give that a try.

Snapdragon X2 Elite Deep Dive: Qualcomm’s biggest leap yet for Windows laptops #computers #featured #laptops #news #qualcomm #sandiego #snapdragonx #snapdragonx2 #snapdragonx2elite #snapdragonx2eliteextreme #snapdragonxelite #tech

Ich hatte damals bei der Einführung des #SnapdragonX ja mit großen Schwierigkeiten beim Linux-Support gerechnet und zahlreiche der zu lösenden Probleme umrissen[1].

Das es nach eineinhalb Jahren zu Headlines wie "#Tuxedo gibt Linux-Notebook mit Snapdragon X auf"[2] kommt, hätte ich aber auch nicht gedacht.

Aber das zeigt schön zwei Dinge:

* Wie viel AMD und Intel tun, damit ihre Platformen gut unter Linux laufen.

* Was für Tücken bei vielen Systemen mit ARM-basierter CPU lauern, weil (a) Industriestandards, ACPI und so Sachen fehlen/ignoriert werden und (b) sich CPUs mit ARM-Kern und damit gebaute Boards halt viel stärker voneinander unterscheiden als in der x86-Welt.

Samsung launches Galaxy Book5 Edge 5G Windows laptop with Snapdragon X and 5G wireless

The Samsung Galaxy Book5 Edge 5G is a laptop with a 15.6 inch FHD display, but a relatively compact design: it weighs just 1.66kg (3.66 pounds) and measures 15.5mm (0.61 inches) thick. With an entry-level Qualcomm Snapdragon X (X1-26-100) processor and a 61.2 Wh battery, it should get long battery life.

That chip isn’t exactly a speed demon, so performance will probably be acceptable for […]

Shuttle Nano AI Mini PC G1 is a Qualcomm Snapdragon-powered computer

After Qualcomm introduced its Snapdragon X processor family last year, nearly every major PC maker introduced one or more laptops that would use a Snapdragon X series processor. But it’s been harder to find desktop computers using the chips. Lenovo and GEEKOM have both introduced models, but for the most part they still seem to be listed as “coming soon” rather than available for […]

Acer Aspire 14 AI laptops come with Intel, AMD, and Qualcomm processor options

For the past few decades most laptop and desktop computers that ship with Windows software have featured Intel or AMD processors. That changed last year when Qualcomm launched its Snapdragon X line of chips for Windows PCs. While laptops with these ARM-based processors still aren’t as common as models with x86_64 chips, just about every PC maker has released one or more laptops with a […]

I've been talking about it for months, but I finally followed Jami Kettunen's instructions and got Chimera Linux installed in my Yoga Slim 7x ARM laptop.

Windows was crashing every few days (while unattended) with the error "The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error is caused because the system stopped responding and the hardware watchdog triggered a system reset." even after a full restore.

I'm hoping Linux is more stable.

Microsoft has officially unveiled two sleek new devices in its Surface lineup: the lightest-ever 13" Surface Laptop and a compact 12" Surface Pro. Both boast impressive portability, long battery life (up to 23 hours on the laptop, 16 on the Pro), and are powered by Snapdragon X chips with AI Copilot+ integration.

Lilbits: Snapdragon X Chromebooks, Pixel 7a battery swelling, and a Liberux NEXX Linux phone progress update

Earlier this year the folks at Liberux announced plans to build a Linux smartphone that combines the kind of features you’d expect from a modern phone with the hardware you’d expect from a pretty good single-board computer. The Liberux NEXX is expected to have a RK3588s Processor, a 6.34 inch, 2400 x 1080 pixel OLED display, 32GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage, along with dual USB 3.1 Type-C […]

Ubuntu 25.04 will support more ARM64 machines, including the Snapdragon X Elite!

Ubuntu will improve ARM64 support

Ubuntu had conducted a very interesting test for the ARM64 processor architecture support on a Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite machine during the development of Ubuntu 24.10. It was a huge success, seeing as the ARM64 laptops and desktops are being more popular in today’s computer stores, alongside the existing ARM64 machines.

As Ubuntu 25.04 Plucky Puffin gets closer to the stable release, the Ubuntu team is considering improving support for the ARM64 machines, especially those that use the Snapdragon X Elite processors. The ubuntu-x1e-settings meta-package, which is necessary for such computers, has been promoted to the main repository. At the same time, the qcom-firmware-extract package, which is necessary for Qualcomm machines and is a script that provides a way to extract Qualcomm firmware files from the Windows partition and to create a Debian package for a specific machine, has been uploaded to the universe repository. The script currently provides support for the following Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite machines, with more machines to be added to the list:

• Acer Swift 14 AI (SF14-11)
• ASUS Vivobook S 15
• Dell XPS 13 9345
• HP Omnibook X 14
• Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6
• Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x
• Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 (13.8 inch)
• Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge

The Linux kernel package and the Ubuntu installer will be updated to support such machines to make sure that they run Ubuntu without any problems. This is going to be done starting from 25.04 to make sure that the next LTS, which will be released in the next April, runs flawlessly on such machines.

Alongside that, the Ubuntu team plans to improve support for all ARM64 machines by distributing a single working Ubuntu ISO file for ARM64 systems and by eliminating device-specific installers to make installing Ubuntu on such systems easier than never before. This will be a single official Ubuntu image that works on all the platforms, be it an Ampere powered workstation, a Snapdragon X Elite laptop, an ARM64 server, or in a virtual machine on your Apple Silicon Mac.

The Raspberry Pi machines will also experience improved system compatibility by changing the camera stack to work with such machines. The new PiSP driver has been added to the camera stack to make sure that the Raspberry Pi machines be able to use the camera on Ubuntu, in addition to the rpicam-apps (userspace apps), picamera2 (Python API for camera), and their dependencies. This allows for a smooth migration from the original OS, which is Raspberry Pi OS.

However, the AI features for the official AI camera that uses the Sony IMX500 imaging sensor are not available in this version of Ubuntu due to licensing concerns, but the Ubuntu team will be working on it to resolve the licensing issues so that Raspberry Pi machines will be able to use the AI features for such cameras outside the original OS.
