Alright! Thanks to you I worked it out - have a small 4gb USB Stick now and Mint is booting up All well - butâŚ
Audio is not working. ;( Even headphone´s do not react or give some sound.
The output is labeld as
acp3xalc5682m98357 Stereo
I already tried WeirdTreeThings Audio postinstall script - doesnt make a difference. Also installed his keyboard fix which is working great. Volume and Brightness Buttons work now. But neither way I can´t get audio to work. Could I ask you for help again ?
Thanks for all your hints so far. Compared to my former installation of the âHP Pro c645 Chromebook Enterprise (BERKNIP)â this is by far a real tough nut for a linux chromebook newbie Learned a lot so far! So thank you again for all the fish (and help)âŚ
It´s not⌠But it´s a cheap thinkpad with a lousy CPU (Athlon Gold 3150C) and few ram (4gig) and I guess not really worth the time soldering a m2 slot. Would really love to take a look further in the Thinkpad Convertible world (with more horsepower) as I start to like the concept of this thing.
Sure thing, although we do have a warning that Ubuntu and ubuntu-based distros arenât really supported. Thereâs a reason why Domi said âf**k Canonicalâ on stage
Please run the debug script and upload the file:
As for soldering M.2 - I would be happy to help. I even carried a pinecil with me during the congress
All youâd need is to ship the machine and compatible slot my way (or I can order one on AliExpress, but it will take 2 weeks to arrive).
I would pick it up in Kehl, solder it, and ship it back your way the next day after verifying that itâs working.
One of our community members shipped his MORPHIUS my way for unbricking before Christmas, so thatâs the best way to do it (itâs cheaper and faster, even though itâs just across the border).
Then you can install any NVME drive youâd like, and shipping would be like ~10EUR so in my opinion worth the bump in convenience, speed and storage size.
If you donât want to bother, I totally understand. I can also build you a ROM with LinuxBoot instead of EDK2, which will make it work with just eMMC - but you wonât have UEFI (not that it matters for Linux though)
Iâll take a look where to get M.2 slots, but it is worth it in my opinion.
Difference in systemâs performance between eMMC and NVME is very noticeable, not to mention it will increase machineâs value if youâd decide to re-sell it
As for debug logs, I havenât seen this before. Could you try booting with iommu=pt, since itâs clearly an IOMMU issue?
As for performance of AG 3150C, itâs roughly on-par with JasperLake. Of course you wonât be running newest AAA titles on it, but itâs quite decent. If you setup VAAPI, you can easily play 4K videos and connect it to 4K display in the living room for instance.
And of course, you could also swap the motherboard with higer-end tier if you decide thatâs not enough, they go up to Ryzen 7 and 16GB if I remember correctly
Is there a command to see if the config got through after boot ?
and then
sudo update-grub
?
Did I perform it right?
Woot ? Isn´t the VAAPI Mesa driver automatically installed in Mint / Fedora etc. ???
Now you got my attention. Nevertheless that âAthlon Goldâ is performing close to a Jasper was beyond my attention. I now want to bash AMDs Marketing for using a anachronistic name that points to long forgotten (golden?) times

Should be working now then, but âpro audioâ means that UCM isnât being loaded I guess?
Please check pavucontrol or whatever mint uses and switch from âPro Audioâ to âDefaultâ.
cc: @WeirdTreeThing, can you take a look at those logs?

Yes this should be provided by the distro. My guess is linux mint is too old to include the ucm. The best option would be to switch to a more up to date distro.
I failed to follow the recomendations of skipping canonical based distros. So I´m about to switch to fedora 39. Anyone could please lead me to a tut how to format the emmc with ext4 and putting the bootloader on an SD Card ? Is there something like that? @elly mentioned something way up in the thread but the fedora installer doesn´t seem to have options for this. ;(
p.s. Seems fedora has an extended partitioning mode. Trying it right nowâŚ
All well - butâŚ
