As much as I like my Tuxedo, I probably would not have bought it if I had known that the ethernet card and some laptop essentials dont work without their drivers, which have not been upstreamed. Due to this, I can't use my distro of choice (Bluefin) OR run with secure boot and LUKS with tpm unlock even on regular Fedora
Do you know if that's still the case on their new systems?
I'm currently waiting for next gen GPUs to become available and have been leaning towards Tuxedo
I'm using an Infinitybook Pro 14 gen 9. It came out last year.
You will most likely need the "tuxedo-drivers" package, but whether you'll need an ethernet driver too depends on the hardware they choose.
At least they publish their drivers for both RPM and DEB systems, so that makes it a bit less painful.
Of course, none of this applies if you use their distro. There, everything is pre-installed and configured for their laptops
True enough. I likely will just stick with the stock system.
