Dear fellow linux users,

I’m comming to you for help. One of my family members recently got fed up with windows bloatware and I managed to get them ready for a switch to Linux. This person’s daily driver is a hybrid PC/tablet machine ( Lenovo IdeaPad Miix 510-12IKB ).

I booted a Linux Mint live usb session to check hardware compatibility and almost everything is working fine. The only exception is the virtual keyboard display, when physical keyboard is disconnected. It never appears. Would a full install with third party stuff fix the issue ? This is a blocker for the person, and I’m wondering if any of you have experience with switching on a same model, and would advise any distro that comes with full support of the hybrid PC/tablet hardware.

I tried to look for answers and non of the ones I find are recent enough. Some mention hardware compatibility issues (wifi, camera) that have been resolved and are working according my live session test.
