Linux Hardware report
Probe result of HP ENVY x360 15-cp0xxx
Installation
Fedora supports secure boot enabled by default in the laptop so the process is streamlined. Dual boot with the pre-installed Windows 10 is simple by preserving the /boot/efi partition which includes the HP System Settings to access UEFI.
Touchscreen & Stylus
Fedora kernel 4.19.3 fixed an issue preventing the touchscreen to properly function. The bundled stylus ELAN 264c currently requires a missing data file located at /usr/share/libwacom
to access to Gnome Wacom Tablet settings.
Orientation Sensors
This model has an AMD Fusion Sensor Hub currently unsupported on Linux kernel listed as 03:00.7 Non-VGA unclassified device [0000]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Raven/Raven2/Renoir Sensor Fusion Hub [1022:15e4]
from lspci -nn
output.
AMD is working a new driver expecting the release around August 2019.
Storage
This model comes with a 7200 RPM 1 TB hard disk drive upgradeable to a solid state drive (in this case a Samsung 860 1 TB version). It also includes an extra slot for a non-volatile memory express (NVME) drive.
Miscellaneous
Due to the firmware bug, majority of HP laptops are affected by unresolved impacting some functionality of ACPI. For example, the F5/Mute button led failed to lighten and a noticeable delay of updated battery status when plugging or unplugging the device. See Linux kernel bug report related to ACPI on HP laptops
Summary
- All test is done on an Design Suite 30 based on Fedora Workstation with nearly out-of-box experience.
- A recent fix is applied for bug related to ACPI preventing touchscreen and stylus to properly run.
- The battery usage is about 6 hours depending of the usage. Optimization such as powertop is needed to fully maximize power saving.
- Microsoft Windows 10 has webcam handling facial authentication via Windows Hello application. The equivalent howdy is available on via COPR repository and needs more refinements.
