[05:00] <oldfart> Hello
=== asus is now known as asusE200HA
[17:49] <asusE200HA> hello there
[17:49] <asusE200HA> i bought few days ago this netbook
[17:49] <asusE200HA> https://www.asus.com/Notebooks/ASUS-Vivobook-E200HA/specifications/
[17:49] <asusE200HA> it has uefi
[17:50] <asusE200HA> so i have problem to boot from usb linux
[17:50] <asusE200HA> but i tried lubuntu and it was ok
[17:50] <asusE200HA> but i haven't sound
[17:50] <asusE200HA> do you know something about it?
[17:50] <wxl> asusE200HA: if you haven't checked alsamixer to make sure everything is unmuted and the volume is up, i'd start with that
[17:51] <asusE200HA> the icon in bot was full
[17:51] <wxl> asusE200HA: alsamixer. in terminal.
[17:51] <asusE200HA> hmm
[17:51] <asusE200HA> i will try
[17:52] <asusE200HA> i found this
[17:52] <asusE200HA> "Unfortunately Intel doesn't support Linux on Cherry Trail Atom SOCs, so this laptop has problems with audio (no sound with the integrated sound card, but works with an external one or via HDMI) and video (no suspension, but you can configure a "pseudo-suspension" that consumes little power, as explained below). "
[17:53] <asusE200HA> bit i hoped for a solution
[17:53] <asusE200HA> but*
[17:53] <wxl> asusE200HA: like i said, try alsamixer.
[17:53] <wxl> asusE200HA: not sure it will work but it's the first place to look.
[17:54] <wxl> asusE200HA: furthermore the fact that Intel does not support it doesn't mean that Linux does support it. there have been many cases of drivers being written that are reverse engineered, in spite of manufacturer support.
[17:57] <asusE200HA> why do you think that only with lubuntu i success to boot it?
[17:57] <asusE200HA> i tried
[17:57] <wxl> asusE200HA: well i don't know which other ones you use but some linux distros support uefi well and some don't.
[17:58] <asusE200HA> ubuntu64, tahrpup64, slacko puppy 64, xenial puppy, fatdog
[17:58] <wxl> asusE200HA: it's surprising to be that ubuntu didn't work. it should be the same.
[17:58] <wxl> asusE200HA: we use the exact same kernel they do.
[17:59] <asusE200HA> i disable security boot and fast boot. but when i press to boot from usb, just starts windows
[17:59] <asusE200HA> only with lubuntu it was normall
[17:59] <asusE200HA> ...
[17:59] <wxl> you can always check with #ubuntu if you want support with that
[17:59] <wxl> as for the other ones, you'll need to check their support channels
[18:00] <asusE200HA> i bought this pc for my studies. it has 32 gb disk. but with windows 10 and updates i haven't memory
[18:02] <asusE200HA> i feel that they try to don't let you instal linux
[18:04] <wxl> asusE200HA: many manufacturers don't really think about linux. it's not that they're trying to NOT let you install it, it's just that they're not worried about making sure you CAN.
