Arch Linux PKGBUILDs for Surface Linux
Primarily tested on Arch Linux + Surface Laptop 13" (Intel).
Instructions
-
Building the patched kernel (includes ACPI module)
cd kernel PKGEXT=".pkg.tar" MAKEFLAGS="-j8" makepkg -s --skippgpcheck sudo pacman -U linux-surface-*.pkg.tar
It's based on the Arch kernel tree (with patches curated by Arch developers) and Surface specific patches.
