Just thought I'd pop by to say hi

Hey all,

I've just purchased the FusionIV-15 laptop and I'm waiting for it to arrive. I'm a bit of an old school Linux power user and Linux is a big part of my day job. I'm going to be installing either Arch or Debian as the base install.

Does anyone else here run Linux on this model from PCSpecialist?

Yes. Not me, but:

Fusion 15.6" (Text Only Review)

I've had this laptop for over a month now. Time for feedback. One of the first things that come to mind on this laptop is the slimline professional understated look of the lid, the low key fan slots at the back and the ports. It is finally the perfect mix between quality and good value as you...

Thanks, Oussebon,

Awesome, I kind of expected the older kernels to fail due to the hardware within the laptop being relatively new. Probably why Manjaro works as it will be using at least version 5.3. I've looked up the MX250 GPU and support for that was added into version 418.56 of the propriety drivers. I'll have to use Debian sid if I'm going to use Debian but I've been using sid for the best part of a decade so I'm confident I can work through any teething troubles.

I'll write a little review once I receive it and stretch it's legs
