Can linux be installed? null

Fedora 26 and 27 work out of the box. Only major issues I've found are that the audio jack doesn't seem to work and the HDMI out audio has some glitches. I haven't troubleshooted to see what the issue is, since I use Bluetooth headphones. The mute button doesn't light up when audio is muted, but I prefer that it doesn't. Other than that, you'll need to change your default camera to the webcam, since it defaults to the infrared cameras, but that's a trivial setting. All the biggies, screen, keyboard, wifi, touchpad, and touchscreen work out to the box. Scaling is pretty rough, but that's more a wayland issue than an issue with this particular laptop.
