Seconded. You can try usb redirection in libvirt, and if that doesn’t work, you can try passing through the usb root hub as a pcie device

Excigma@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Framework wants to fix the budget laptop with its first touchscreen machineEnglish6·6 months agoI’ve had an Acer Spin 5 and Dell Latitude 7440 2-in-1, and with regards to autorotation and keyboard disabling, it has just worked out of the box for me on every distro I’ve used (apart from Arch which needed an extra package for rotation). The keyboard disabling also works in BIOS on both laptops, so perhaps it is done at a firmware level for these laptops. Some of my friends have trouble with the keyboard on their HP 2-in-1s.
Summoning the OSK is okay on GNOME, you just need to swipe up from the bottom of the screen, but the experience with the keyboard automatically popping up is worse on Wayland :(. Generally my experience has been the opposite of yours though, it has been quite good!
Hopefully the framework will drive more attention to this area though, the OSK is a particular pain point I think, Windows 10/11 does a great job here.
the processor it uses, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, is pretty notorious for poor efficiency. I have a phone with it and it heats up a lot (battery reports 45C) from more demanding tasks (such as gps), battery life isn’t the best either.
That said, my battery life has not been as bad as yours… 2:30hrs seems quite poor.
I think they are wondering if one extension can use both v2 and v3 APIs at once? As in whether v3 APIs will be “backported” to allow v2 extensions to use them
I’m using an app to use my Android phone as a webcam, which works great (good low light performance!) provided I can stand it up somewhere above my laptop screen (finicky). You can accidentally knock it over. Might be worth considering if you don’t use the camera much - otherwise an external one will probably attach better and he more stable
Regarding your mouse double clicking, some Reddit users suggest pressing the click button quite hard a few times…
I think it handles congestion better and saves energy for the cell tower. It’s a good choice for crowded city centres, near university campuses and train stations where many people frequent
