The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.
Bad idea for a native install cause of the speakers, didnt work well for me on the GE60, I always had static on the speakers when powering down both under Fedora and LM14.
But it runs absolutely perfect in virtualbox cause there's more than enough power.
Optimus on linux isn't really "there" yet, but better support is coming now that nvidia has been shamed into caring about it. The killer nic required a tweak of the driver to add a PCI ID the last time I tried it. The keyboard LED interface isn't exposed by any driver, there isn't anyone who has really dug into the firmware to create a robust linux driver yet for MSI gaming laptops. It would take a few weeks of spare-time hacking and a sampling of different generations' hardware at the very least, to get that done.
