The main issue with my HP Zbook is, that Linux support of the built in firmware for keyboard, sound etc… is not really working well.
When logged into my USB hub with external devices it’s all good, but it can be an issue on the go.
I have started to concider if rather than getting a new control device or audio interface, I should prioritize a second hand laptop with similar specs but less firmware quirks.
This is not the fault of Linux, this is hardware vendors choosing not to support Linux.
@mosgaard I hope you will be just as lucky I have been when some Kernel-Upgrade years ago solved my problem with the Lenovo Yoga touchpad. I had the most annoying problem where the touchpad started to have micro-stutters some random time after boot, untill the next full reboot.
Back then I provided a bug report for the kernel tracker. I never thought that would make a difference. But it did.
