6 months agoI don’t know if this was true at some point, but this is definitely a false statement today.
I have a Framework 16 w/o dGPU and it is perfect. It has long battery life, awesome performance, and has no thermal issues at all. Then there’s all the features which I don’t think I need to get into here. But I will call out support for lvfs/fwupdmgr; it’s great and in line with what I have seen with Dell and Lenovo.
This is my forever laptop
gnome-network-displays let’s you cast your screen to a wireless display (Miracast) or to a Chromecast device.
It works with KDE no problem and even under Wayland.
It creates a virtual display that can be organized like any other display: unify with another screen or extend the desktop using your DE’s default method/UI. And then it uses standard screen sharing conventions to send content to that virtual display.
I don’t know what kind of dark arts the developer(s) employed to make this possible, but the end result is simple wireless display in Linux that just works! A MUST for using Linux in a business setting.
