A patched Linux kernel build enabling Linux to run on Microsoft Surface devices. This original repository is no longer maintained and the project has moved to the community-run linux-surface organization.
Use cases
- run linux on a microsoft surface laptop
- install ubuntu on surface pro
- get touchscreen and pen working on surface under linux
- kernel patches for surface devices
- dual boot linux on surface book
When to avoid
- you want an actively maintained surface kernel - use linux-surface/linux-surface instead
- you need support for recent surface hardware or recent kernel versions
- you need security updates
