System76

Searching online, for general keycaps, the recommendation is to soak them in soapy water for an hour. I am assuming that is fine here, but wanted to double check if that is indeed the case. Thanks!

Recently I noticed my Lemur Pro wasn't closing up neatly, and the click action of the touchpad had become quite difficult. When I griped about this, somebody said check and see if your battery is swollen. But this machine is barely over a year old. The battery should be fine, right? Batteries in my other laptops (which have all been Macs) lasted years.

The fan speed curve on the Oryx Pro is wild. It seems to have basically two speeds: jet engine takeoff and dead silent. Is there a way to control this better that doesn't involve editing firmware? I see some posts from earlier this year on this topic but wondering if the situation has evolved — I don't really want to do something that won't be well-supported.

I'm in Canada, bought it with the corresponding (US) power supply, just received it, plugged it into a wall outlet, made sure the power supply is on... And when I turn it on, it shuts off before even fully booting. Not at any specific point in booting, either, it just seems like the power cuts off. Sometimes, if I turn it back on soon after, it barely stays on for two seconds. Tried a different outlet with the same result. Nothing else seems out of the ordinary, fans are a bit loud, but not so much that it seems strange for a booting computer.

So I'm looking for a Linux laptop to replace my trusty old 2013 Macbook Pro which is now EOL. I could use some faster hardware anyway. I looked at the Adder, and it seems like it has almost everything I want. Open firmware, good documentation, etc. However there's just one little thing...

I received and installed a brand new Thelio. I was unable to get it to resume after suspend. I see some posts about this issue, but no definite resolution. Does anyone know of a fix for this? If I disable suspend in the Pop system settings, will that help and what is the impact, it is the machine never going to sleep?

Hi guys,

I will accept any used System76 device.

Just an FYI, that something seems to be amiss with Kernel 6.6.

I have a gaze15 and I took it apart to clean and after none of the drives would show up. I started messing with bios and it's worse now. Also how do I find pop os kernel?

I received my laptop today in the mail. Upon booting it up for the first time I noticed the touchpad is unresponsive.

I saw on at my friend's house and it looks good he was gatekeeping it tho

Hello everyone, I'm considering the Lemur Pro for its combination of lightweight design and long battery life workstation. However, I'm a bit concerned about its build quality. I've come across some posts from 1-2 years ago suggesting that the build quality might not be the best. Have there been any improvements or updates in this area or still the same?

Just got a new Thelio Spark. When I pulled it out of the box I heard something moving around. I opened the case to see if I could isolate it. There's a metal enclosed compartment inside the case, and something is sliding around in there. I think I can see heat sinks and the word "Antec." I'd have to get into that compartment to describe it further.

I do not have much to say; I just think System76 does good work. I really appreciate the technical support (the few times I've needed it). I very very much look forward to when they release their own laptops (instead of Clevo which, to be honest, are fine).

I read people are calling the Pangolin different names (11, 12) and that 13 is on its way. But where do I see that and what the version of the current one is (that they sell right now)?

Aside from the lousy speakers and the occasional bounce keys, I have to say the Lemur Pro may be my favorite laptop I have owned (I used MacBook Pros for a long time).

I've been very happy with PopOS on my main gaming PC. I'm 95% sure I'm going to order a gaming laptop from System 76. Anyone know if they have Black Friday sales? If they do I'll wait.

Does anyone know if Gazelle has a serial port of debug port? Is it possible to debug the open firmware?

My 2013 MacBook pro is showing it's age and I am shopping around for a laptop. I've been curious about system76's for a while but have been put off a few times by reports of the cases feeling a bit flimsy. I know some of these reports are older though.

So I switched from Pop to Mate desktop and now firefox cant be found anywhere (even in search) but can only be opened using pop shop. Also, the start page switched to Linux Google search page. Any help will be appreciated.
