But who needs 6 years of transition?

I’m hoping someone manages to make surface pro’s fully compatible with linux in that time… (or that something that’s compatible and serves SPs purpose becomes available)

I’ve tried :( just seems it’s not possible

I’m trying :( but they don’t work well enough on my stupid machine

Yeah… my machine got so slow and with every update breaking something new I had to “downgrade” to win10 (I’m aiming for linux, but no luck :( so far, at least). Now everything magically works again

I’m trying my best :(

I do have a cintiq as my main art station (wacom definitely is worth the money!), but sometimes I really need the portable one, and a separate computer + tablet doesn’t really work for that… And also sadly the portable wacom tablet machine things themselves (movinkpad, I think) don’t really cut it for other computer stuff either.

That’s what I feared, oh well. Win10 it is for me then…

I tried with the kernel, but it just makes the touch work barely with Zorin, so I’m trying to figure out would something else run it any better. And yeah, it seems people agree that gnome is the way to go

Yeah… I might have to. Win11 is only the absolute last resort, since it’s such a garbage fire. It installed itself on the SP7 without my consent, and just kept getting worse and worse every update, until the machine barely worked without lagging. Insane that an os hogs something like 6GB ram just for being on, and even on a damn machine microslop made themselves

Yeah tried and failed, I get them working but not even close on the level good enough for art

Tried and failed, I just can’t get it to work. I got the pressure working, but the cursor won’t focus properly and is all over the place, it’s something to do with the integrated touch screen somehow. Not with wine, not even with non-flatpak bottles :(

It might run on the SP7, but I just won’t risk an OS install without getting it work on some other touch screen mint first. I’ve considered trying zorin on this extra one too though, to see if it would work better with this touch screen, or is it just the SP that’s the problem.
