I was daily driving Pop_OS before my System76 finally gave it up. I mostly enjoyed the experience, but when my laptop gave it up, I had to run to a big box store and grab a replacement asap. I’m now riding an HP envy touch screen fliptop and (:puke:) windows 11.

I’ve been hesitant to throw linux onto this puppy because frankly, having never had a touch/ flip screen before, I’m really digging it. Has anyone here run linux on a touch screeen? Issues? A specific release I should consider? Any other considerations?

    How was the screen rotation? I am mostly using mine flipped with a second monitor.

    Automatic screen rotation wasn’t exactly smooth, but it did work, and I didn’t experience any major issues because of it. I’d imagine it’s better now.

    Also, what year was the HP ENVY?

    Somewhere around 2018 I think, it was a while ago. But you can test in the live environment to see if the hardware support is still as good as it was.
