Linux on the RDP XL-200C Mini PC

Where have we reached?

Apparently the device can boot Linux from the pre-created remastered Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 ISO on my rdp-thinbook-linux repository

The OEM vendor has provided a 'driver' for Ubuntu 16.04.

We are currently exploring how to get Wifi (and everything else) working.

Open issues

• Wifi does not work (18.04)
• Audio out (18.04) is too loud with a buzzing noise

Current approach

Initial ideas and approach tracked in Issue 6. Findings and evaluation of approach will be added as comments to that issue.

First quick steps to be tried by RDP are in comment under Issue 7. Results of that idea will be tracked as comments under that issue.

Terminology and short hand

Throughout this repository and in issues and issue responses, I will often use several terms. I define these common terms more clearly in docs/terminology.md
