    Did you use that build that’s meant for Surfaces (the name is escaping me)? Or did you use a non-specialty OS and wrestle with the drivers?

    I’m curious because I have a 4 Pro and 6 Pro and I’ve been hearing mixed things about the touchscreen and the pen on Linux.

      I used Debian, there is a version for the Surface if you do some searching, after install you need to update the kernel for everything to work as it should. But it’s not that complicated, I just followed the guide that accompanied the update.

      As for the touch and pen. Both works fine for me. I did find a whiteboard software that recognized both sides as pen and eraser. Though I’ve been planning on trying to install one note and test that on the linux version. Just haven’t gotten around to it.
