Installing Linux on the Eurocom Q6:

For starters,

If you are dual booting, install Windows first, and partition from there with a tool such as Minitool. You'll only need two partitions, one for root and optionally, a small one for swap (say, 8GB). Partition them as appropriate, and when done, reboot into the UEFI menu and ensure that:

(a). Secure boot is disabled (otherwise you won't be able to load up proprietary drivers needed for the Nvidia GPU).

(b). Confirm that you're booting in UEFI mode ONLY. This is the default. CSM should remain disabled. Here's why.

Running Linux on the Clevo P750/1DM2-G DTR

Hello, brethren.

This post will detail how to successfully run Linux on the aforementioned notebook, with common traps and exceptions explained.

An overview:

This is an Intel Skylake-based laptop (upgradeable to a Kabylake-grade Desktop processor) with a desktop-class Pascal GPU, the GTX 1070. Switchable graphics (Optimus) is absent, which eliminates a significant burden of running Linux on this machine.

After a weekend of research, stress and pain I finally figure out how to install manjaro 17 and configure the nvidia/bumblebee drivers on my avell laptop

Since buying the Clevo N850HK1, installing linux distributions has always been difficult. After some experimentation, I settled for Ubuntu 17.10 and this is how I installed it.

Here's my notebook specs:
