Reply To: Running Linux on the EZBook 2?

[Peter Willig]

Thank you for your reply.

@xmcorporation you can find information on this forum as jreith has mentioned. for example look here: https://techtablets.com/forum/topic/bios-cmos-reset/
i have not read it until the end, be careful with the advices but i think it should be possible to repair the bios on the cheap.

@jreith okay this setting mentioned above in bios did not change the appearance in /sys/bus/sdio/devices.
under /sys/bus/acpi/devices there are several devices listed but i can not figure out which is the right one. i am reading and reading through all the “Issues” Thread on the https://github.com/hadess/rtl8723bs/issues git page to learn more about the hardware and how linux works with it. although i use linux for more than 10 years i am new to the building of kernel and applying patches and so on.

I tried Antergos with Kernel 4.8 but touchpad, LED brightness control etc don’t work when i boot into the live system.

• do i have to install it to the internal drive to have this working?
• for the wifi, did you compile your kernel and apply patches from githup page before that?

Could you be so kind and give some basic instructions for noobs? 🙂
