Yeah, that's the model laptop I've got. It's only where it's at because of a small group of community members working on it, it took ages to get where it's at now and I still get random reboots when doing basic things on Linux. It doesn't inspire much hope for future snapdragon laptops.


Interesting. What kernel and distro are you running? It's been my stable daily driver with Linux 6.15/6.16/6.17 under Void Linux. It happily runs KDE and Vivaldi for me, with a few PWA's (Slack, Zoom) to bridge the gap of no closed-source software targeting aarch64.


Ubuntu 25.10 and kernel 6.17, which was advertised to support this laptop. I'm not doing anything crazy with it when it randomly reboots. Just mundane things like file management.


I can't say that I've ever seen that on mine, but it seems to be a real crap-shoot with the x13s. Some people in #aarch64-laptops have random crashes all the time, others (like me) have a completely reliable system. It could be something weird that Ubuntu is doing with the kernel.
