Hi everyone, Linux noob. I am installing Ubuntu on a Panasonic Toughbook CF-33. I was wondering if anyone had advice regarding drivers as the toughbooks have quite a few I/O ports, dual cameras, cellular antennas, and attached keyboard etc. Any advice is appreciated or even resources on where I could go to learn more about Ubuntu. Thanks everyone, take care.

    As of right now, audio is working! This is my 3rd toughbook and I’ve been super happy with them. I have put them through hell with travel, heat/cold, high altitude and the elements and they’ve been nothing but durable. Clunky yes, but I appreciate em. I’m happy to have something other than windows running on them but now I’m trying to get wine setup and running some of the niche applications.

      I’ve had a lot of success with Lutris for apps you wouldn’t expect.

        I am working on Lutris now, trying to get the Panasonic Day/Night Utility working as well as some mapping software and boy is my noob status biting me in the ass lol. I have a lot to learn still. Thanks for the tip!
