Keep in mind the Ultra 300 chips also only have recent support in the kernel. The battery life likely isn't great for now (as with previous gen Intels right after release). It makes sense to me that for now the benchmarks would be Windows specific.

Ubuntu 26.04 hasn't been released yet and that's likely what they'll test on. It includes kernel 7.0 which has a bunch of the panther lake support.

DHH has been posting specific support for Framework, so maybe Omarchy/Arch is one of the main options.

As a community we shouldn't give Omarchy or DHH any publicity. For both technical [1] and ethical reasons.

Genuine question, what is it about DHH that makes you think he can move the needle on battery life for Linux?

My understanding is that he's a giant in the enterprise software space, I don't see how that would give him any clout in the hardware space.

battery life for Linux is not some grand project, it's just support and setup of existing kernel drivers, typically at the distro level - which is why it's already there for some setups

he mentioned good numbers before, but of course you may want to wait for reviews

[dtj1123]

This is essentially why I'm confused. All he's doing is setting up pre-existing drivers, any chimp with access to ChatGPT can do that.

I don't see that he's bringing anything noteworthy to the table, but I've repeatedly heard people talk as though he's going to bring better battery life to Linux through omarchy.

merit doesn't matter

people want to get laptops that work well and have good battery life, whether this was easy or hard to achieve means naught
