MAD24-225 An Arm laptop project conclusion
Session
- Wednesday, 15 May 16:20 - 16:45
- Room: Session 3 | Tenerife II
What would it take to run mainline Linux on an Arm laptop built for Windows? That was the question Linaro set out to answer in a project funded by Arm. A bit more than a year later, the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s could be used as a daily driver while running mainline Linux without any out-of-tree patches on top. This talk will give an overview of how this project came about; discuss some of the difficulties encountered, how they were addressed and what remains to be done; and provide a closing summary of the Arm laptop project.
