It works, but reverses up-down and left-right. As a result, I can’t find a way to rotate the display from vertical to horizontal.Ĭritical Issue 2: Touch is confused. Before I commit to installing, I’d like to resolve two critical issues and one minor issue:Ĭritical Issue 1: When it initialized, Sarah informs me that it is “running in rendering mode.” No doubt this is because the live load doesn’t support the goodix video hardware in the TW700. I’m (still/just) using the live boot from USB.
#LINUX FOR TABLET WINBOOK INSTALL#
Note that I haven’t done an actual install yet. So I’m trying to start a more current discussion here. I’ve read a number of other posts across the web that relate to trying to run Mint/Ubuntu on a TW700, but they are all 2 or more years old and all of the threads seem to just die at this same point. But am able to get a live-boot of Mint 18 (Sarah) up and running – with limitations. Had issues trying to get current Ubuntu releases to run.

They all eventually just hang somewhere during the boot process.
#LINUX FOR TABLET WINBOOK ANDROID#
Spent days trying to get Android to run, but couldn't get _any_ version to run at all. First, I thought I'd try Android, because its UI is really ideal for small, touch-only devices like the TW700. Tired of struggling with Windows-10 updates to a TW700, I decided to try something else. Is there any information I can gather about the panel from this setup that would help in determining the issues it has on the newer kernels? I'll post a dmesg and Xorg.0.log for this as well.Reposting this on the Hardware forum in an attempt to get more views and, perhaps, an answer? Now the display is correct and I can run "glxinfo | grep renderer" and see Bay Trail and run glxgears.

If I switch VT back to another terminal the screen is readable again. I can see that it is rendering (if I run glxgears) but only because random pixels are changing. Once the X server starts however, the display becomes mangled. With this, the Intel framebuffer does display and I can launch an X server with xinit. I installed the Ubuntu PPA 3.13 kernel and started with video=VGA-1:800x1280e. I've been reading through this older bug report that documents a similar issue: Opregion from /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_opregion
