Since the 7C works flawlessly also with smooth stylus input, some more boards could be used to surf the ARM wave.

I Just entered the arm ChromeOS world with a 7c 1 gen and was wondering if there is any chance to get genshin work. ATM it stops after a few secs of the intro.

I'm wondering what repo the Debian instance gets its packages from, more specifically the adb and fastboot binaries.

Thanks in advance to whoever finds this out, you will literally be saving me so much headache!

There might be many cheap Chromebooks for sale in Denmark this summer (article in Danish)

I spent some time installing and configuring Linux (Arch) on pixel slate. Here is what I find.

The good parts.

• Basically everything works out of the box (with one small fixable caveat below). I installed Arch Linux with KDE Plasma.
• Firefox is simply great.
• Battery life is very good. I get very similar battery life compared to Chrome OS. Battery drain in suspend is minimal.
• Screen rotation works pretty well once iio-sensor-proxy is installed.
• virtual keyboard (maliit-keyboard) works well too.

The bad parts

• Stylus works, but lags a lot. Might have something to do with Wayland?
• Gesture navigation can definitely use some improvement.
• The flatpak Plex client appears to lack hardware acceleration and lags a lot with 4k content. I have to rely on the web client at the moment.

Some notes

• My motivation to do this was to completely remove chrome from my devices. I chose Full UEFI boot. There is a very well written tutorial for doing so. For me the only hurdle was to obtain a SuzyQable CCD Debugging cable.
• The default Arch Linux install works well. The only issue was the hid_google_hammer kernel module. It is causing very long delays during the startup and you basically won't be able to properly shutdown or reboot. Fortunately the fix is easy enough. I just had to blacklist the two modules (hid_google_hammer and hid_vivaldi_common). From what I tested, this issue affects many distros, including at least Arch and Void.

Like the title says. Just upgraded my Android phone, got it set up and working like a charm. Went to connect it to my chromebook in the chromebook settings and it won't let me get past the "sign in with your google account" screen.

Keeps saying "wrong password". But not only have I been already using that account/password not only on the new Android Phone, but on my Chromebook for the last year...but I also LITERALLY copied and pasted it from my bitwarden account after it failed to take the typed password three times.

I'm stumped. Help please. Thanks in advance.

When you import a private key for an SSH connection in the Terminal app, where are those stored? Can I access them?

I'm trying out the live USB on a Surface Pro3. I know the wifi chip is supported as I can connect to my phone's hotspot. I was able to connect to my home Wifi with Windows on this laptop, but attempting to connect my home wifi gives this error

The only thing I can think of is WPA vs WPA2 vs WPA3. I've tried changing my wifi between WPA2 and WPA2/WPA3 modes, not going to set it to WPA though.

Any tips?

I’ve been using the $399 Asus Chromebook Plus CX34, one of the first Chromebooks to carry the Plus branding. It’s great, and it’s a good representation of the sort of device Google is trying to promote with this program — not the fanciest or most groundbreaking product (as the 2017 Plus was positioned) but rather the affordable option that offers excellent value.

The Asus Chromebook Plus CX34 is the most affordable of the Plus bunch, with its Core i3 / 8GB / 128GB base model (which is what I have) priced at just $399. The rest of the gang is in the $400–$800 range, with various models from Acer, HP, and Lenovo. I assume pricier ones will arrive in due time.

If that Plus branding drives more people to look at the CX34, I’ll be ecstatic because it’s a really solid package for $399. The chassis, while plastic, has an incredibly durable feel and a smooth, comfortable texture. Using it feels quite a bit like using the larger Chromebook Flip CX5, which is — and I will die on this hill — one of the best Chromebooks ever made. The palm rests and lid have a unique marbled pattern to them that gives the device a neat but understated sort of look. And it’s all a fairly portable package, weighing in at just over three pounds.

I have pihole running on my NAS, and my DHCP server is configured to return the NAS IP as the primary DNS server (and 1.1.1.1 as the secondary). From ChromeOS settings I can see the expected DNS servers are being used, and I can reach the NAS using the local DNS records configured in pihole. Earlier this morning I was in a Crostini linux terminal and I could SSH to my NAS by hostname, then all of a sudden it stopped working in the terminal. I can still use the local DNS names in ChromeOS and other devices just fine. Inside the terminal I can see the usual 100.115.92.93 in /etc/resolv.conf, and when I run nslookup nas.lan it's able to resolve the lookup.

Google is introducing the Chromebook Plus badge. ChromeOS devices with the moniker have minimum hardware requirements and will be granted exclusive software and AI features, with Google promising a higher level of performance. On October 8, eight new laptops with the Chromebook Plus branding will be released in North America, starting at $399.

In a blog post today, John Maletis, VP of ChromeOS product, engineering, and UX at Google, said Chromebook Plus laptops have "double the performance" when compared to the top-selling Chromebooks from July to December 2022. Most of that somewhat vague claim comes from the Chromebook Plus' minimum hardware requirements:

• Intel Core i3 12th Gen or AMD Ryzen 3 7000-series processor
• 8GB of RAM
• 128GB of storage
• 1080p IPS display
• 1080p resolution webcam with temporal noise reduction

Chrome Unboxed – The Latest Chrome OS News - Oggi, 22:11

Hey everybody, hope you're all doing well. I usually stream off this laptop about twice a week on Twitch and usually never had a problem until a few days ago. I know both the Twitch app and the laptop's ChomeOS both had an update so I don't know if that's where something went wrong? Anyway, my twitch stream was upside down while my screen was still at the right orientation. I tried doing Shift + CTRL + refresh to change my screen orientation to see if that did anything it didn't. The stream itself was still just upside down. My friend called me on Discord to see if he could help but it was upside down on Discord as well so I don't think it's a Twitch thing. I've streamed problem free for about 2 months so I have no idea why it's doing that now. Any help or suggestions would be very appreciated because I am absolutely baffled on how to fix it.
