Tablet (w/ stylus) suggestions for Linux
(media.piefed.world)
Looking for a tablet for taking notes in engineering and deeper math classes.
I always used paper or typing (shoutout notesnook), but I want to have a big digital handwritten journal to look back at and reference.
Or if anyone is familiar with custom ROMs for android and know a good and easy to flash tablet.
I already have a thinkpad x1 carbon laptop for everything else.
Tablet will be separate for reading, home assistant, taking notes with Saber and watching entertainment.
Again, looking for a decently easy Linux tablet or de-googleable tablet with an advanced stylus.
And I'd prefer not supportting Microsoft or Google of course. And budget strictly under $200 l.
Thanks!
I have a minisforum v3 running Linux and it's great. Only missing features are windows hello, and using the fingertips scanner for more than unlocking.
I also have a framework 13 which is not the touch 12, but having both I can say for sure that both have great quality but the minisfourm has shockingly good performance which I don't think the 12 will have.
You can use windows hello in linux, its called "howdy" even works with sudo in terminal. Check this out: https://github.com/mudkipme/awesome-minisforum-v3?tab=readme-ov-file#faical-recognition
I tried, did not get it working, decided since it cant unlock after boot anyway it was probably not worth it.
For me it works, it took some tinkering (changing the video device). I can unlock my v3 after boot with my face.
Maybe I will try again.
