Lilbits: Asahi Linux release fix for booting Linux on macOS 27, Surface Go is going away, and Sony announces plans to stop making PlayStation game discs
When Apple was shipping computers with Intel processors, there were plenty of ways to install Linux on a Mac. But things got a lot trickier when the company began to switch to its own Arm-based processors around six years ago. The folks at the Asahi Linux team have been doing their best to keep up though, offering builds of a Fedora-based GNU/Linux distro that can be installed on (some) Macs […]

working from my #SurfaceGo 1 with a Pentium Gold CPU running #Fedora44 and #niri today instead of the usual #MacbookAir M1. Gods, I love this little machine so much. I prefer the form factor of a Surface over a Macbook anyday. The keyboard of the first Surface Go is soooo nice. It feels soooo good. I don't care if it is an underpowered machine. It is a loving machine.
I posted about it SIX YEARS AGO when I was running it and happy with Windows 10:

Now that I am finally running Linux on it, it became even better. So happy with this little guy. Just wish the battery would last longer. -

I think I’ll update my #surfaceGo and #MacBookAir to the newest #Ubuntu release now.

Currently distro / DE hopping to find something that suits a Microsoft Surface Go (1).
10 inch 1800 X 1200 screen is nice.
8Gb of RAM is fine.
Pentium Gold processor is... meh at best.I really want to run XFCE but scaling is terrible.
Mint is ok, but cinamon is maybe just a hair too heavy.Anyone have suggestions for a DE / distro that is good with low powered laptops that need fractional scaling?

So it has been a few weeks since I got the Surface Go 2 and put linux onto it; I have been on-and-off setting the tablet up to my liking and now it's in a pretty good place. The last 2 jobs is to install the correct light sensor drivers (though I like to manually set the brightness), and install Signal
So I've nuked the Windows install and instead running Fedora 43 under the KDE Plasma Mobile environment as desktop is the most perfect to use on such a device and that has worked exactly as intended! This is true in general: it's been so much more reliable than the ThinkPad 13 with no freezes upon sleep and things like sound and the like just worked outa-the-box! Very pleased over the 1.5 weeks I've actually been using it.
In terms of the theming: I chose the iOS icons (the files one I'm still trying to find) as I really do prefer Apple's icons, and the background is a subtle trans background by naimapanda (I think) (https://wallpapercave.com/w/wp4842190).

hey #fediverse people using #mastodon on underpowered machines, what is your client of choice?
I'm on a #SurfaceGo with a Pentium Gold running #Fedora with #KDE and think that maybe someone here has a recommendation for something more lightweight than the default web client.

My last try to acclimate with a#MSWindows OS was years ago after I left IBM when I bought a #SurfaceGo tablet. It didn’t work. Even though I liked the hardware, I didn’t use it.
Now I’ve given it a second life. I set it up with #Ubuntu #Linux using the #SurfaceLinux project.Everything works fine but the pen. But Ian not sure if the pen still works at all.

A couple of years ago I picked up a Surface Go 2 tablet (with the detachable keyboard) so the family would have access to an ultra-portable Windows system. It's actually a really nice Windows 10 convertible!
It's also an annoyingly slow Windows 11 convertible, and I'm seriously considering "downgrading" it back to Windows 10 while it's still possible, then looking into the state of Linux drivers for it. I have been given an enthusiastic go-ahead for this plan by the rest of the household.

@pandora @fedibikes_de #Tablet ist leider wirklich schwierig, da suche ich auch gerade noch eine sinnvolle Möglichkeit. Ich überlege immer mal wieder ein gebrauchtes #SurfaceGo von M$ zu holen und #Linux aufzuspielen. Ich bin aber unsicher, ob es bei der Nutzbarkeit wirklich mit #Android mithalten kann (Benutzbarkeit ohne Tastatur+Maus, Akkulaufzeiten, StandBy-Zeit, zuverlässiges Einblenden der Bildschirmtastatur,...). #LinuxMobile #linuxtablet

@newsfeedindia Does anyone have a suggestion for a #tablet (around 10", <200€ - refurbished but not too old is okay) running #mobilelinux or any other #FOSS OS? At the Moment I am thinking about getting a used #SurfaceGo and put Linux on it. But also a #CustomRom #Android would be fine... On my mobile I am running #grapheneos which is great so far.

After updates broke my Debian on #SurfaceGo I migrated this device to Fedora, with new KDE. And for some mysterious reason I suddenly wanted to keep narrow panel on top, with start menu and tray, and application icons on dock on bottom. So I basically stylized #Microsoft hardware as #Macbook using #Linux for this...
Praise the Chaos! :blobfoxlurk1:

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.

Mkay. Wie genial ist denn bitte #ventoy ???! So ziemlich alles hat nicht geklappt, was ich an Boot-Sticks beim #surfacego zur Linuxinstallation probiert habe. Letztlich hat es nur ventoy rausgerissen.
Am besten funktioniert übrigens bis Dato das standard #ubuntu. Vor allem die onscreen-Tastatur funktioniert out of the box.

💡 Dauerbrenner im #Lehrer-Blog: Ich höre immer wieder von ungenutzten und nicht abgeholten Dienstgeräten. Dabei eignen sich viele Tablets auch wunderbar als zweiter Monitor am PC.
👉🏻 So klappt's zum Beispiel mit dem #SurfacePro bzw. #SurfaceGo:

Well shit, there goes the lazy couch coding 🙃 I guess it doesn't bounce that well 😒. No damage on the outside though, the protruding ridges of the magnetic keyboard connector were the cullprit 🥴.

I am using a Surface Go as a daily driver. I installed Linux @[email protected] on it. I want to embrace the touchscreen and the pen, but this machine is increasingly locking up. I really don't want to reinstall Windows on it. I have a hunch that 4gb of RAM isn't enough. I really don't want to buy yet another laptop. So, I'm thinking about an experiment.
I wonder if I could offload 90% of the applications I've installed and only use it as a writing tablet. Then, create a desktop in the cloud. Maybe I could install LXD on my @[email protected] server, and then install a distro with DE. Or maybe I could create a stationary workstation at home and install #RustDesk and remote into it.
I like the idea of the cloud desktop on Yunohost because I could have my own desktop on any machine.
The caveat to that is that I may need a more powerful server. Which I would rather invest in the server over another workstation or new laptop.

That being said, what distro should I use?

Seriously considering moving back from the Surface Laptop Go 2 to the Surface Go 3.
I made the switch in the first place because while I *love* the flexibility/modularity/all-in-one-ness of the Go, in 2022 I found myself using it in my lap a LOT, and (like the Surface Pro), the Go is NOT lap-able. The Laptop Go, on the other hand, is (as its name implies) a traditional laptop.
But the Laptop Go has quite a few drawbacks, too.

I own a #SurfacePro 7 and a #SurfaceGo. Both don't support #Windows11 and therefore will be trash in October 2025 if you ask Microsoft.
Anybody has tried #ArchLinux or any other #Linux distro on these devices? What hardware is supported and which isn't (I can go w/o the touch screen, but Wifi/Bluetooth/Touchpad/etc should be usable)?
My Acer Aspire One 722 from around 2012 runs current #Arch just fine...

#zuverkaufen #secondhand
#linux #surfacelinux #surfacegoIch verkaufe:
Surface Go 1 8GB RAM / 128GB SSD
inkl. Keyboard cover (CH) und Stift
sehr guter Zustand
ohne Windows (Lizenz nicht vorhanden)
Ubuntu LTS 22.04.3Ich nutze es nicht mehr da mir der Touchscreen Support unter Linux doch noch zu wackelig ist für einen daily-driver. War mal als "Linux Tablet" gedacht.
Bei Interesse gerne per DM mit Preisvorschlag melden. -
