We are not certfied distribution for https://frame.work/ as the fingerprint reader doesn't work out of the box (or is not easily set-up).
This would be the task to get among certified distributions and consider some of proposed tweaks for our Workstation https://gist.github.com/cornfeedhobo/8f32430dc6c52b9a4776df91701b1d96
Proposing Leap 15.4 / SLED 15 SP4 Update and ALP
WIP HCP Page https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:FrameworkLaptop (we will need somebody with Framework laptop to enlist what works and what doesn't)
Fedora and Ubuntu are supported https://frame.work/linux
one particular aspect there that probably helps a broad range of users is offering the "stable" kernel as optional hardware-refresh kernel towards openSUSE users. Other distributions provide that option as well.
The guide uses the repository we (unofficially) provide for the purpose.
Metadata Update from @lkocman: - Custom field SUSE Jira - SUSE Linux Enterprise adjusted to https://jira.suse.com/browse/PM-3449
I did rewrite the description to aim for certification and consider some of the changes for Leap/TW/SLED and ALP
Apart from kernel part, do we want to make these config bits to be default in Leap? or perhaps we create a framework-laptop-config package for store these config bits?
So to be supported, we have to provide the fingerprint reader working experience out of box. The other settings is just recommendation. And should be individually "considered" on our desktop. I did already talk to e.g. yast team regarding the swap size calculation etc.
Action items from today's meeting:
The workshop has uncover the fact that people use the latest stable kernel on Leap to have "decent" hardware enablement.
This is also somethign that we'd like to recommend to the SUSE IT for Issue #77.
for 15.4 I'd like to advertise the options (perhaps mention it in release-notes) and in 15.5 offer latest kernel stable as a "newer" (TODO figure out word for it) hardware enablement support.
I did ping YaST team to see if it's doable in 15.5.
something*
With Leap 15.6 I no longer see problems with 12th gen Intel Framework (suspend works, switching between external and internal display works, WiFi does not lock up). I do not have a fingerprint reader.
I did need this adjustment:
cat /etc/modprobe.d/framework-als-deactivate.conf blacklist hid_sensor_hub
Perhaps this should be handled by some quirk automatically.
Actually, it seems the device
Bus 003 Device 006: ID 27c6:609c Shenzhen Goodix Technology Co.,Ltd. Goodix USB2.0 MISC
is a fingerprint reader, just did not bother with setting it up.
It is enabled with
# zypper in fprintd fprintd-pam $ fprintd-enroll # pam-config -a --fprintd
However, I do not recommend it. It switches completely to fingerprint authentication, disabling password authentication.
This is essentially automatically resolved in 16.0.
