I did have to edit a configuration file for the screen rotation, touchscreen calibration, and to enable tear free vsync mode for the Intel graphics. But I didn't have to install anything and it's basically copy and paste. Even the startup log and lockscreen are properly rotated! The distro is Ubuntu Mate 18.10.

Just a shame about the shonky keyboard then. Hope it's this easy on the Win2.

Sorry I couldn't say. I don't have one. It's a little out of my price range. Lol.

I'd like to mention that the graphics and audio popping issues are completely gone on Linux. As well as the battery indicator working correctly. It actually goes from 100% to 0%.
