Awesome chiptune music can be found at:

Use your favorite converter to make it more usable. Enjoy!

>>56022021
That's one of those meme Surfaces with ARM.

>>56022413
Well that's good I guess. I remember a friend getting excited about the deal they got on a Surface RT and how they wouldn't believe me they'd goofed. Then Microsoft dropped it. At least linux will give it a comfy EOL

Even before this news dropped, Surface RTs are going for like $80. Doesn't seem worth it for a fixer-upper 10 inch tablet with questionable future Linux support.

Unless the ARM chips are really good?

>>56023234
nah it's just shitty tegra 3 lol

>>56022021
It doesn't work well at all on the Surface 3 (non-pro).

>>56020518
Why would you want Linux on a shitty tablet?

>>56023801
It's better than rt

>>56023825
I was assuming that was a Surface Pro. Still I don't see why you'd want such a thing unless you were retarded enough to buy a Surface anything in the first place.

>>56021885

The font is Topaz from Amiga Workbench.

>>56023866
The surface is great dude

>>56023616
I wouldn't accept a tegra 3 device for free, I had it for a year and a half and it was garbage.

>>56025574
Yeah okay buddy

Is it possible now to install normal Windows there?

>>56027008
>normal Windows
>on ARM
No

>>56026810
If you can name a good 2-in-1 tablet that supports both linux and has an active stylus, let me know.

Will this make possible to install android on the Lumias ?

>>56027786

Yes

>>56027151
In that line of though, does anyone know if Linux works on the HP Pavilion x2 12, specifically the model 12-b020nr ? It looks like a really nice model:
- better than Atom CPU
- 4 GB ram
- USB 3.1 G2 Type-C
- The tablet part can be docked in both ways (I really like this feature. I think this is the ideal convertible form factor)
- 1920 x 1280 screen resolution
- Wacom active digitizer

>>56021839
this desu

>>56028620
I wouldn't be so sure of that. I would expect this to apply to Windows and Windows RT devices but not to Windows Phone devices. Are you sure this is applicable to Lumias?

>>56023801
>not wanting android

>>56029175
The windows phone 8 devices all use UEFI, and this works on them. Not sure about windows phone 7

>>56029235
>wanting Android on a Microsoft tablet
Why when you can just fucking buy an Android tablet?

>>56029273
Because the surface RT is cheap

>>56029206
If you convert to FLAC correctly I don't think you loose any quality and it's not proprietary but you do lose the ability to modify it and you do generate a monumentally larger file. This is why I like modules. It's like music with the source code included. Free open source music?

>>56029284
What? Last I checked it waas overpriced as fuck

Suddenly microsoft tablets become somewhat worthwhile

>>56029284
no it's fucking not

revive

>>56029130
>- Wacom active digitizer
Be extremely careful buying laptops/tablets if an active digitizer is actually of importance to you.

Only some models will actually support an active pen, and it can be difficult to tell sometimes what technology they actually use. If that does actually use the Wacom AES pens though buy a dell pen for it. The HP ones aren't well liked.

>>56029235
Android is a garbage operative system, especially when you can get full blown windows on a tablet instead

>>56029251
>The windows phone 8 devices all use UEFI, and this works on them
Getting android running on my Lumia 930 would be awesome. Love the phone, hate the OS.

>>56027059
Actually, Windows RT is Windows 8/8.1 compiled for ARM with an stupid restriction that only signed .exes can run.
There is a nice amount of Windows x86 applications ported to Windows RT for jailbroken devices.

fixed that for you

posting from a pro 4, its comfy and I wouldn't dream of putting linux on it.

it's pretty cool that secureboot is hackable though.

>>56034509
On the Pros and the Surface 3, Secureboot is not locked, you can disable it. The hack is really only about RT devices and Windows phones. It can also help malware authors since it can bypass Secureboot and make the malware run at boot
