I installed Garuda Dr460nized on a Surface Pro 5. WiFi drivers were missing, but manual install from USB helped.

However, performance is a nightmare. Sound stutters, even Steam itself doesn’t run well.

Any ideas? I know people run games like Left 4 Dead on Windows on these systems.

I’m absolutely new to Arch, and haven’t touched Linux in years. However, I was able to confirm the iGPU is detected and a driver is installed.

    Thanks! I saw that but… honestly, that’s not what I can do given the experience and time I have.

      Frankly, that leaves you with two options:

      1. Be patient and learn, so eventually you have a working system.

      2. Don’t have a working system.

      The Surface Pro is a very proprietary device. It requires the extra work in order for Linux to function on it.

      There are communities of people who will be happy to help you on your journey to learn, but unless you go through the effort you won’t solve your problem.
