Gnome is probably the best with touchscreens. I had issues with Ubuntu though so you probably want something more up to date, like fedora or arch.
Yeah, Fedora runs with wayland by default, which is really nice for touchscreens.
Also, highly recommend checking out Universal Blue’s Surface images! It’s pretty much everything you need out of the box! https://universal-blue.org/images/surface/?h=surface
That’s even better! Thank you!
To add another comment to your reply, have you tried it personally?
I’d like to back up my system before doing the switch. What do you recommend I use? Clonezilla with an external USB drive all plugged in using a USB hub?
I haven’t tried the Surface images due to not having one, but I am using their Silverblue images to make the whole NVIDIA drivers thing a bit easier on my system.
Also I haven’t needed to backup my system in over a year now (I stopped hopping with Silverblue) so I don’t remember the solution I used, but this seems good.
Very cool. Thank you for this.
