Installation
This device can only boot in UEFI mode.
This device has an IR camera that can be used for face recognition authentication, try Howdy if you want to use that feature.
To control the keyboard RGB backlighting, you can try python-ite8291r3-ctlAUR and hid-ite8291r3-dkms-gitAUR. The latter is not required but provides more functionality. If the AUR does not recognize the device, try building it yourself from Github.
The most comprehensive driver for this device is qc71-laptop-dkms-gitAUR, which can read and control fan speed, control the lightbar, enable Fn lock function keys, enable Meta key lock, and control charging limit. It has no user interface, but is quite functional.
To have touchpad toggle and Airplane mode toggle working, you can also try uniwill_wmi module in tuxedo-drivers-dkmsAUR. It has fewer features but has a user interface.
It is worth noting that these two AUR conflict with each other.
Additional steps may be required to get the screen to use a high refresh rate, see Intel graphics#Add support for 165Hz monitor and Kernel mode setting#Forcing modes and EDID.
Accessibility
The appearance of the UEFI is simple and not very colorful, so it might work well with OCR software. Navigation can be controlled by keyboard or mouse.
- By default, this device requires manual installation of memory and hard disk. Ask for help if you are not able to do it by yourself.
- Blind users should request the help of a sighted person to change UEFI settings.
