No prob!

One other thing I forgot to mention since it's a total "edge-case" is that I am able to run VERY unique monitor setups with it... other solutions like Gnome were hell for this and often bugged out when doing custom xrandr work - specifically panels would never position/stretch right on switching monitor configs, etc.

My daily driver is heavily modified T430, and I run a 1:1 aspect ratio on one of my monitors. XFCE does SUPER well and stays VERY low on system resource utilization (memory, CPU, etc.)!

Gah. Maybe two more things - just thought of this... I come from a heavy design background and I am SUPER picky on UIX for myself. XFCE is as-close to a "pixel-perfect" solution that I've been able to find without hella bloat. The only widget/panel that I use that's not super configurable is the battery one... which meh w/e.

Needless to say I'm a huge advocate! Feel free to PM me if you have any onboarding questions that you can't find answers to online =)

Thanks for the HWM Manual.


It seems as though The only Atheros chip that is Free is the AR9271, However the only pci-e card I found, comes with only a single antenna jack.:/ The AR9285 PCI-e card comes with two antenna jacks, but is not listed in the Atheros Free Firmware.

Appears as though my only option is to get the AR9271 and use only one antenna:/

Am I missing something? any other suggestions?

Thanks

> True, but what I and many others are still waiting for is for Debian to run on cheap tablets.

I'll let you know in a couple weeks. Got this one coming for my birthday mid-March

They were successful getting Ubuntu installed on it, I'm sure I can make Debian work.

When I was beginning to learn Linux back in the day, I used The Linux Command Line and have only good things to say about it. It must be one of the simple best books to introduce yourself to the command line and to how to use a modern Unix like system.

Thanks lol it's a 1440p TN panel but a very good one at that, here is a link to it on Amazon.

Yes something like the TP-Link AC600, for example...

I can't believe you paid someone to put a live install on a 8GB drive for $5.95. You can buy this 32GB PNY Turbo USB 3.0 drive for $8.99.

Fire off a few emails and put it down to experience.
I appreciate your time may be valuable but creating a bootable live USB takes a few minutes of actual work.

Do you want to use your Intel graphics (for VGA-Out) and AMD graphics (HDMI/DVI out) at the same time?

don't think that's a usual use-case, but if you just want/need a VGA-Out, something like this should do the trick for a third display on the 390

This one's cheap and works great, no additional drivers required: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JDVRCI0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I think it might be 2.4 ghz-only, though

For anyone who has had this same problem and ended up here looking for a solution, I ended up buying a PCI E sound card and audio is working with it.

You might have problems. A guy in an Amazon review for example describes some of the problems he had installing Ubuntu :

http://www.amazon.com/HP-Stream-Includes-Personal-Horizon/product-reviews/B00O65HZKS

The issue would seem to be some device drivers. You also need the 3.16 kernel according to the review, but I do have that with Debian testing. I don't know offhand what kernel Debian stable is using.

I had to manually download the firmware for the set up. But after its installed, it's picked up just fine…

• Correct
  
• Ok
  
• I'll check
  
• Yes
  
  Edit: thanks for the help but I found a discrete solution to my problem.

You can by AP Clients for not much money, basically they can be configured to connect to a wifi network and then expose a ethernet port for you to connect a device to. I've yet to meet a ethernet device Debians installer can't figure out.

I use the below for installing things on to my tablet hybrid:
