## Notes

### Installation

You have to disable Secure Boot. repeatedly press F10 during boot to bring up the BIOS setup, navigate to the boot section and disable Secure Boot.

To prevent the system from booting in Legacy mode, i also recommend to disable CSM/Legacy mode

### Dual boot (with Windows)

Works fine. Shrink the Windows partition from Windows first, then install Linux on the free space.

### Bluetooth

Works out of the box. You may have issues after suspend or a quick reboot. To fix this poweroff the laptop and wait 20 seconds until turning on.

### Camera

The camera is detected and works out of the box.

### Card reader

Detected in kernel versions 5.6 and newer. If mounting the card does not work try booting with the kernel parameter `intel_iommu=on` and/or with the kernel parameter `pci=nommconf`.

### Function keys

#### Media Keys

All media keys work. In order to get the mute LED to work you need to load the `snd_hda_intel` module with the `model=alc295-hp-x360` parameter. This can be done by creating the file:

    /etc/modprobe.d/mute.conf

    options snd-hda-intel model=alc295-hp-x360

#### Brightness Keys

I have not been able to get these to work

#### Wireless toggle key

I have not been able to get this to work

### Hybrid Graphics

Works with PRIME GPU Offloading with nouveau, and Reverse PRIME with the proprietary NVIDIA drivers.

### Hpfall

Not tested, but hpfall-gitAUR can be used to detect falls and park the hard drive

### Secure Boot

Secure Boot, if set properly works with GRUB and shim.

It works, but UEFI is an absolute mess so I would not recommend anyone getting too deep

### Other

The system will not allow changing to boot order when there is BIOS administrator password set.
