@paladin I've installed #Linux on two #XMG laptops, and not many issues. Install kernel-headers and mkinitcpio-firmware.
#endeavourOS , #manjaro and #openSUSE #tumbleweed work like a charm.
#openRGB does recognize the keyboard lighting on the newer one (2019), but not on the really old one (2015).
On #KDE, Endeavour is the only one that has performance measuring widgets working for both integrated #Intel and discrete #Nvidia gpus out of the box.
