Hello, everyone. Is there an exynos based chromebook that is well supported?
<javier__>
willmore: Snow (Exynos5250), Peach Pi (Exynos5800) and Pit (Exynos5420) are well supported
<willmore>
I keep seeing the HP Chromebook.
<willmore>
javier__, is the HP F3X85AA one of those?
<willmore>
I guess that's 'spring'.
<javier__>
willmore: I believe that's the Spring
<willmore>
Ahh, The key to support seems to be samsung chromebooks.
<javier__>
willmore: yes, there is support in mainline but I don't remember how complete it was
<javier__>
for spring that is, afaerber should know more
<willmore>
Okay, thank you. I"ll ignore the HP chromebooks and look for the Samsung ones.
<willmore>
Thank you.
<willmore>
I just want a well supported ARM based laptop and the exynos chromebooks are hard to pass up for the price. ;)
<javier__>
willmore: yw, basically all peripherals are working besides audio speakers and jack
<willmore>
javier__, for the Samsungs or the HP?
* willmore
doesn't need audio.
<javier__>
for the Samsung, I don't know what's missing for the HP
<willmore>
Okay, thanks.
<willmore>
FWIW, on the linux-exynos wiki, the HP page looks more like it should have been left a red link--there's not anything non-template there. :(
<willmore>
But, something is better than nothing.
<javier__>
willmore: the linux-exynos wiki isn't an indication of the support in mainline for the machines
<javier__>
maybe support for spring was finished, I can't remember the deatils and I never had access to one
<javier__>

javier__: it was working okay at some point, but my display has issues and the SD card stopped working and so far I've not had the patience to debug a new boot setup with a black screen ;(
<willmore>
javier__, understood.
<willmore>
Looks like 'snow' laptops are available for not much more than the HP.
