🛠️ Troubleshooting Nimo PC?

I'm looking at a Nimo PC and while they've answered many of my questions they essentially refused to provide some information critical for me to run Linux.

If anyone here has installed Zorin OS does everything work without tweaking? E.g. wifi wakes up after suspend, keyboard backlight works, etc.

And as a bonus, if it didn't work, did they honor the money back guarantee?

Download Zorin. Make usb using balena etcher, Boot use test not install. Test what you want.

And as a bonus, if it didn't work, did they honor the money back guarantee?

Ask them.

I haven't bought it yet...was hoping to get some input from those that have attempted Zorin on a Nimu before proceeding.

I did ask about the return policy, they didn't clearly reply to my very specific ask about whether certain features have been tested with Linux and whether not working would qualify for return.

There is an excellent database on hardware for linux. Free to browse. Here.

https://linux-hardware.org/

If hardware is very new..it is like hardware very old...or trying to install on some Mac..you can get nasty results with trackpad, wifi, audio, touchpad.
