# Linux on the RDP XL-200C Mini PC

## Where have we reached?
Apparently the device can boot Linux from the pre-created remastered Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 ISO on my [rdp-thinbook-linux](https://github.com/sundarnagarajan/rdp-thinbook-linux) repository

The OEM vendor has provided a 'driver' for Ubuntu 16.04.

We are currently exploring how to get Wifi (and everything else) working.

### Open issues
- Wifi does not work (18.04)
- Audio out (18.04) is too loud with a buzzing noise

### Current approach
Initial ideas and approach tracked in [Issue 6](https://github.com/sundarnagarajan/rdp-xl200c-linux/issues/6). Findings and evaluation of approach will be added as comments to that issue.

First quick steps to be tried by RDP are in [comment under Issue 7](https://github.com/sundarnagarajan/rdp-xl200c-linux/issues/7#issuecomment-407669551). Results of that idea will be tracked as comments under that issue.
