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.

They don’t even have an airtag on those things?

Yes it works in some situations. I use it on teams every day. I run the browser version of teams in gnome wayland.

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…

Similarly there is pfSense for firewall/router/vpn/etc. It’s just rocksolid and stable.

I was thinking the same thing. I usually use the full res option. It’s been in there for years.

ext4 is perfectly fine for my needs. It’s stable and just works.
