Bought because of Linux. Tuxedo provides only very old LTS distributions like
fu**\*** Ubuntu 22.04...

Keyboard drivers must be installed in order to use backlight...

lots of problems with that device - also on other installations of other distros.

I still use this for cracking passwords with john or hashcat and gaming with Steam.
It is also powerful enough to run a view virtual machines.
