new intel N150 based tablets - anyone running Linux on them yet?
How would fedora 42 be on those?

Anyone tried?
Does anyone know if these laptops can go into deep sleep correctly on linux / fedora?
I got a minisforum v3 and it’s amazing. I can actually game on it and use it as a real productivity device. KDE tablet mode works fairly well.
I’m not impressed with the performance of Intel these days not when you can get full Ryzen CPUs with decent graphics in a “tablet”.
I have a N150 mini PC running F42 (KDE), it runs basically perfectly. N150 is a pretty new CPU so you will need a recent kernel, and F42 already using 6.14, so it is fine (just don’t run Debian on it).
However the only thing that worries me is the battery of that tablet. The N150 use around 10-20W under load, and with the 25WHr battery, it probably going to latest around 1 to 2 hours only.
I thought the N150 was supposed to be really low power?
During idle (or very low load) yes (5-10W), but not under load (watching video, web browsing, etc).
