      Bought me a Dell Chromebook with Kali Linux that I played with for awhile.
      Decided enough was enough and made up a 64 bit antiX full iso usb.
      Hit the escape key when turning this on to pick usb bootup.
      Good news. Booted up just fine. Installed just fine. Most hardware worked out of the box
      Bad news. No sound. No 2 finger tap. Takes 3 fingers for the 2 finger action.
      Tap was easy to fix.

      Glad I posted earlier.

      Sound fix required pulse audio install for my fumbling about in alsa on my lonesome
      Took me 2 days to find this page

      Now youtube and xmms play noise. Before
      speaker-test
      button in hardware crashed in antiXcc . Running it terminal would throw errors but no sound.
      Now it works in terminal

      Using that nanax.fr thread. I errored out a bit following the restart commands. Reboot seemed to fix it though cuz I had sound after that.

      Hopefully some one > like me > can use this thread. 😀 Tickled pink I got this working. I did not want to go back to Kali where sound and tap worked.

        Details. Forgot. Edit: when needing a like a F1 key at slim login.
        On the l/h side of keyboard is a magnify glass looking icon. That is your search key.
        Press it and hold it while going through the top row keys with symbols on this chromebook.

          Thanks for this roky!
          I’ve got that same model chromebook. I successfully re-did the bios & installed antiX, but the sound won’t work, and the the touch pad is a bit wonky, too.
          My workarounds are to use usb devices to fix it.
          Problem is (as you know) – there are only 2 usb ports!
          So now it looks like I can finally fix these issues the right way!
          Much obliged!

            Yeah. Missed the fast bootup when my Acer C710 broke. These chromebooks are as cheap as raspberry pi bpards.

            That sound chip I posted is a PITA for a lot of Linux users. Now just waiting for some parts to come in for my NUC intel box.
            It should become my fastest desktop yet. Also the price of a raspberry pi board.

              Got tired of shutting down this chromebook when hitting the back space button while not looking.

              Power button sits like a key on key board. Easy to hit by accident.

              My dirty fix for now

              Made a backup of powerbtn-acpi-support.sh.bk to keep my original.
              Then opened geany with sudo an deleted everything original but

              harry@antix1:/etc/acpi
              $ cat powerbtn-acpi-support.sh
              #!/bin/sh
              # This script initiates a shutdown when the power putton has been
              # pressed. Loosely based on the sample that ships with the acpid package.
              # If the acpid sample is present as a real config file (as it was in earlier
              # versions of acpid), we skip this script. (Purging and reinstalling acpid
              # resolves this situation, or simply deleting /etc/acpi/events/powerbtn.)
              harry@antix1:/etc/acpi
              

              Logged out and back in. Hit power button. Now nothing happens.Chromebook still turns on with power button.
              Logout button on menu or command line shutdown work as power button shutdown now. Have not tested Ctrl_alt backspace yet to see if logout works still.

                      I checked antiX and it sees my Bluetooth device, but when I try to connect, I get a failed to connect message.
                      Booted PCLinuxOS, and when I first tried it I didn’t have anything, so I checked to see if I had blueman installed, and I did not, so I installed it and PCLinuxOS then immediately connected.
                      I’ll try siduction, another Debian-based distro and see if it has resolved the issues or if it also struggles with Bluetooth.

                        I also got EndeavourOS to run Bluetooth. With antiX I can get sound working with apulse and I can then plug in my headphones and they work, but no success with Bluetooth. So far, PCLinuxOS and EndeavourOS DO work with Bluetooth and headphones.

                          Right now on siduction I have a different issue. When I attempt to use any wev based site that has audio or video the specific site just spins.

                          I’ve tried at least four different web browsers and multiple media sites. To ensure that it wasn’t something else I used several other sites and they work fine.

                          This issue will probably disappear within a few days just as mysteriously as it appeared. If not I’ll investigate further at that time.

                            Add openSUSE Tumbleweed to the list of distributions that have no issues with media or Bluetooth.

                              With antiX I can get sound working with apulse and I can then plug in my headphones and they work, but no success with Bluetooth.

                              I believe you need pulseaudio in antiX for bluetooth to work with audio devices. Pavucontrol (mixer) will route audio.
                              There might be a (complicated) way to make Alsa to work with some routing but I have not seen any.

                                Given that I have plenty of distributions to use, instead of beating them up until they’re all perfect, instead I use each of them at what they do best. Also now that I’m retired most of the distributions are just fine. At the very least they all are fine for reading webmail and forums, which is 3/4 (at least) of how I typically use them.

                                As I commented though a few minor things are going on both siduction and antiX are two of my favorites and there’s a lot they each do well and that’s also true of Endeavour OS, PCLinuxOS, and openSUSE on the HP-14 and also Legacy OS, MX Linux and Mandriva on the Dell Inspiron 5558.

                                  MAJOR influence on my distro choice. I like That the antiX full iso update/grade took up a lot less space than the original Kali install.
                                  Funny thing was. Sound worked OK in Kali. I did not have it long enough to test bluetooth though.
                                  MY mind was already made up.

                                  Internal bluetooth is still a problem. If I can look in the bios and turn it off. Hope it is not a wifi/bluetooth combo card with 2 chips.
                                  NOT really stressing on this feature though. Cuz everything else is working.

                                  Sometimes I drive a crooked road to get my mind straight.
