I'm helping!

Just put Mint on my 2-in-1! So far so good, except my volume buttons don't work, and I have to manually toggle the on screen keyboard for text entry if I detatch the keyboard cover.

Don’t use the stock kernel. Use the HWE one if you want newer hardware to work on Ubuntu and its derivatives like Mint.

Or try a Fedora live-usb and see if it works with the newer kernels.

If it was simple and easy to install and play games on Linux as is on Windows, I would have switched over a decade ago.

I couldn't find it is in the article, is this new purchases, or how is this measured. If a computer ships with windows and I install mint on it, how do they know where that tally goes?
