#surfacelinux — Public Fediverse posts

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.

So I'm trying out #Fedora 43's #KDE spin on my #SurfacePro 9 with a live USB. I know about #SurfaceLinux if I decide to go all in with it. The network browser in Dolphin seems to be using '.local' for my instead of the search domain configured in /etc/resolv.conf. This seems to cause authentication to fail trying to access shares. I can manually type in the right hostname, but curious why it's putting that '.local' in there at all.

Update on the Fedora/Surface Go 2 project: I am noticing some major battery drainage when the unit is not being used.

For instance, I fully charged the device and turned it off last night. 24hrs later I turn the device on and I am at 0% battery.

I am not sure if this is a Microsoft hardware issue, a kernel issue, or a Fedora distribution causing this drainage. I'm leaning more towards a Microsoft hardware issue.

Ich verkaufe:

Surface Go 1 8GB RAM / 128GB SSD
inkl. Keyboard cover (CH) und Stift
sehr guter Zustand
ohne Windows (Lizenz nicht vorhanden)
Ubuntu LTS 22.04.3

Ich 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.
