## Installation

Installing Arch was mostly without hiccup, you do need to disable Secure Boot (`F10` for UEFI 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.

## Audio

Only the front speakers work out of the box.

## Accelerometer

The accelerometer is not found by any userspace programs, iio-sensor-proxy gives the following output:

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

    ** (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:

    $ lspci -nn | grep 8086:a135
    00:13.0 Non-VGA unclassified device [0000]: Intel Corporation Sunrise Point-H Integrated Sensor Hub [8086:a135] (rev 31)
    # modprobe intel-ish-ipc
    # echo "8086 a135" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/intel_ish_ipc/new_id
    $ monitor-sensor
        Waiting for iio-sensor-proxy to appear
    +++ iio-sensor-proxy appeared
    === Has accelerometer (orientation: undefined)
    === No ambient light sensor
        Accelerometer orientation changed: normal
