Installation

Installing Arch was mostly without hiccup; you do need to disable secure boot (F10 for BIOS options; F9 for boot options). Dual boot was not tested. The laptop does not have a CD drive, so you have to use a USB stick. The UEFI also would not startup from the USB stick, but you can browse the USB, and choose the loader.efi to startup from.

Issues

Speaker

Only the front speakers work out of the box right now.

Accelerometer

The accelerometer is not found by any userspace programs, Running 

G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all /usr/sbin/iio-sensor-proxy

from iio-sensor-proxy gives 

 ** (process:12472): DEBUG: 11:45:31.305: Could not find any supported sensors

The accelerometer is connected to a new Intel Integrated Sensor Hub which is not supported by the kernel yet, but can be manually bound to the intel-ish-ipc driver.
