RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 15) Qualcomm Atheros QCA6174 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 32) memory: | 14274 scsi: | HGST HTS725050A7 Rev: B550 usb: | 2 versions: - works: Yes qubes: | R4.0 xen: | 4.8.5-19.fc25 kernel: | 5.6.16-1 remark: | - Secure Boot had to be disabled to install. - I first ran Qubes-OS 4.0.3 on this laptop with 8GB. It still works but it's a pain in the ass. With 16GB RAM it works not too bad, but you have to start a qube first and then the desired app. - I tested the build in webcam with the cheese application. I can take a picture, but when I try to create a video cheese crashes. - I installed kernel-latest and kernel-latest-vm (dom0$ -> uname -r -> 5.6.16.-1.qubes.x86_64). I have the impression Qubes-OS runs more stable. - TPM is build in but doesn't get reconized. - Battery life is something around 2 hours. - The fan runs all the time, but with different speeds, hence I assume Qubes-OS can properly address it. - I did not test sleep / suspend mode, because I do not use it. If I have to close the lid in an emergency event. The system shall disable all input devices and shutdown like Tails. - For more details see the attached gzipped cpio archive. - This laptop is good for testing everything, but I wouldn't recommend it for daily work. credit: | FIXAUTHOR link: | FIXLINK ---
