I've been starting to think about upgrading my 2-in-1 tablet/laptop. My eyes caught the new Asus UX360CA which sports a nice Core M 6Y30 processor (it seems that the specification is very close to the slightly older Asus UX305CA, so if someone has experience with that, it is also going to be very helpful; and while the Arch Wiki has a page for this model, most of it seems a bit outdated, referring to now-old versions of kernel as 'future versions' with several issues not clearly solved).As my current 2-in-1 has a Windows system installed, I was really hoping to have something that can work with an Arch installation.I was wondering how good is the current support of the Linux kernel of the 6YM30. And if there are any issues that are planned on being resolved in the next couple of versions (I might take a few months before actually buying the machine).I am mainly concerned about support in Skylake related power saving features; and a little bit about graphics related performance (Intel 515, and I will definitely go for the 1080p screen), although in that aspect I mostly mean watching videos (1080p and the likes of it) and not graphical work or gaming.(I couldn't find much online. Also, for a list of specs for the UX360CA, see here.)
How good is the support in Intel Skylake Core M processors?
