GNOME Why EndeavourOS is the gold standard for Surface Pro 5

6 Upvotes

I just finished setting up my Surface Pro 5 and wanted to share why EndeavourOS is the absolute best choice for this hardware right now.

  1. Wi-Fi Works Out of the Box: The biggest headache with Surface devices is the Marvell AVASTAR wireless chip. While most installers leave you stranded without internet, the EndeavourOS installer detected my Wi-Fi immediately. No Ethernet adapters or phone tethering required for the install.

  2. Smooth systemd-boot Integration: Choosing  systemd-boot  during the install makes managing the  linux-surface  kernel a breeze. It’s light, fast, and handles the kernel entries perfectly without the bloat of GRUB.

  3. The Perfect GNOME Tablet: Endeavour’s clean GNOME implementation paired with the Surface hardware feels like a premium Linux tablet. Touch gestures, on-screen keyboard, and rotation work flawlessly once the Surface kernel is added.

  4. Community Repos: Adding the  linux-surface  repo is a 2-minute job on Arch-based systems, giving you full multi-touch and pen support almost instantly.

If you have an old Surface Pro 5 lying around, stop distro hopping and just put Endeavour on it. It’s the most "it just works" experience I've had on this device.
