Nice work to everyone working on this! Good write up!

I want to see Linux dominate tf out of this. If I was going to buy one of the current handhelds it would be this and I would use it for everything... A main PC.

Well, some bad news for you then. Even the Lenovo Legion laptops are packaged with what you might call a "Windows BIOS" which is pretty unworkable out of the box even on the 6.4+ kernels. I imagine this one has very specific features and settings that are similarly not easily worked around or supported (like power management and ACPI states). Someone will eventually work out the right combo of features and script a decent setup for these devices though.

Lenovo is just that, yes.

If you want a Linux handheld, why not buy a Steam Deck? What does this do better than the Deck?
