ASUS Chromebook C201

+ +

+ This is a chromebook, using the Rockchip RK3288 chipset. It uses + an ARM CPU, and has free EC firmware (unlike some other laptops). + More RK3288-based laptops will be added to libreboot at a later date. +

+ +

+ + NOTE: This board is unsupported in libreboot 20150518. + To use it in libreboot, for now, you must build for it + from source using the libreboot git repository. + +

+ +

+ Flashing instructions can be found at ../install/index.html#flashrom +

Issues

+

+ Non-free drivers needed in linux kernel for video acceleration; + it's possible to use it without video acceleration. +

+

+ Non-free drivers needed for built-in (soldered) wifi; it's possible + to use an external USB wifi dongle. Check index.html#recommended_wifi. +

+

+ Comes preinstalled (from the factory) with Google ChromeOS. This is a GNU/Linux distribution, but it's not general purpose + and it comes with proprietary software. It's designed for SaaSS. Libreboot recommends that all users of this laptop + replace ChromeOS with Debian or Fedora. No FSF-endorsed distribution is available yet, but Guix and Trisquel might be easy + enough to port. +

+

+ If you go with Debian, make sure to not enable the non-free and contrib repositories. +

+

+ If you go with Fedora, make sure to delete Linux and replace it with Linux-libre. +
