At least on the 13 plus they support the LTS versions of Ubuntu. 20.04 and 22.04 at the moment. Basically any distro will work, just the alder webcam needs specific drivers that are not generally available.
Yes, the fingerprint reader on the 13 plus (9320) works fine.
I have a 13 plus (9320). Everything works in any distro, except for the webcam. Dell provides drivers for it for ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04, and only for the default kernels it comes with. You can also get it working on arch.
Work is being done on these alder lake webcams, but there still is no support for them in the kernel at the moment.
I run mine in ubuntu with a newer kernel. And use my phone with droidcam as a webcam as a work-a-round. The newer kernels run better for battery life etc. I still have the default kernel installed, so I can reboot and use that, when I really need the built in cam.
Oh, that sounds like an interesting idea. Currently stuck with teams at work. Screen sharing does work under wayland. But definitely going to try this.
Last weekend I was at a formula 1 race. And we got soaked in dihydrogen monoxide there…
I was thinking the same thing. I usually use the full res option. It’s been in there for years.
You can just download the firefox tarball from their own site. And that will just update itself.
ext4 is perfectly fine for my needs. It’s stable and just works.
Liftoff has no way to change font size yet. I find the text too small for easy reading. Trying all the apps at moment. Jerboa is fine, but currently cannot login until lemmy.world is updated. Connect seems to work ok. Basically they are all still a work in progress, but usable.
Not surprising seeing the crap that’s going on with reddit. I came over from it too this week.
That’s only for the webcam. Arch has working drivers for it as well. And in the end this is only temporary, until Intel gets drivers for these webcams in the kernel source. Work is being done on them, so it’s a matter of time.
