Hello, I received my IBP 15 gen 10 about 6 months ago. with the following configuration :

- AMD Ryzen AI 9 365

- 32GB DDR5 Kingston

- Running on Tuxedo OS

Everything worked perfectly, but I've been using it for gaming which caused some high temperatures on some games.
I recently noticed that the battery health indicator shows 69%. Although it was 100% few weeks ago, It's like it suddenly decreased -30%.

I usually keep it on charge while using it, always with the appropriate power cord.

What do you guys think of this ? Did I damage my battery by doing long game sessions ? Could it be possible that the 69% is wrong and my battery is fine ?

Hi there,

I have a Dell Premium 16 with RTX5060 and Intel Ultra 7 255HX, Touchscreen.

Have been searching for the right Linux distro for this Laptop.

Because of the semi rolling releases and the KDE Plasma I thought about installing Tuxedo Os.

Does anyone have experience with Tuxedo Os and a similar hardware configuration?

I would love a distro that runs well "out of the box" without the need of installing different drivers etc after installation to get everything running (keyboard, touchscreen, display...). Is Tuxedo the right one?

Appreciate your comments!

Since 2017, Linux has dominated the TOP500 supercomputer rankings, forming a central foundation for modern research. An intriguing chapter in this development was the era of PS3 clusters, which combined significant computing power from relatively modest hardware. After Sony disabled this use in later PlayStation generations, modders are now bringing Linux back to the PS5. Projects such as the ps5-linux-loader demonstrate technical ingenuity, even though these solutions are still experimental and not yet suitable for everyday use.

In this week’s TUXEDO OS roundup, we take a bird’s-eye view of the world with Marble. The software provides a virtual atlas, OpenStreetMap data, and historical maps directly on the desktop. We also highlight useful features of the Dolphin file manager that make everyday digital work noticeably easier. As always, we conclude with an overview of the latest system updates, keeping your TUXEDO system up to date.

For the past three days, the package sources that have been working fine up until now haven't been loading in TuxedoOS. Does this have anything to do with the connection to the Canonical servers?

What do I have to do?

In this week's news update (https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/de/This-Week-in-TUXEDO-OS-19-2026) Tuxdedo mentioned that they rolled out a Dirty Frag patch.

In the update section of Discover I see a lot of packages from Tuxedo to be updated, however none of them states that it deals with dirty frag / or has dirty frag in the name.
I am wondering which one it is?

With Ubuntu packages (that are also listed in Discover) it is very easy to identify which ones are security related and which ones are "just" updates because there are separate channels the package is coming from. For me that is very helpful as I would like to be very updated on the security side of things and I would like to wait for a few months before I update anything non security related. Is there a way to easily find out which Tuxedo packages are security related? They all come from tuxedo_computers-tuxedo-main)

I’m running into a pretty annoying issue with LibreOffice Impress on TUXEDO OS and was wondering if anyone here has seen (or even fixed) this.

When I insert a video into a slide and start the presentation:

• The video does play
• But it is incorrectly scaled and shifted to the bottom-right
• Parts of the video are outside the slide area
• It almost looks like the video is rendered twice with an offset

I tried a lot of different things - no fractional scaling, Codec packages, different video formats, etc - but without success.

Any hints would be welcome!

TUXEDO just announced the new BM15 Linux laptop, and it feels like a throwback in a good way. Instead of stuffing in pointless AI buzzwords, it focuses on stuff business and Linux users may actually care about, like a built-in smart card reader, optional 4G LTE, upgradeable RAM and storage, a replaceable battery, and even a repairable keyboard. It also ships with proper Linux support out of the box, including Ubuntu 24.04 and TUXEDO OS. Nice to see a company still building laptops that don’t feel disposable.

I installed the tuxedo sources and did install tuxedo-control-center and tuxedo-drivers in apt.

there is no tuxedo-tomte package to install through apt.

In Germany, people say "Holla, die Waldfee" when something hits with unexpected force. Our developer penguins have probably thought that more often than they would have liked lately. With Pack2TheRoot, Copy Fail, and Dirty Frag, three Linux vulnerabilities surfaced that allowed privilege escalation to root. Not a pleasant surprise, but openly disclosed and therefore well addressable.

In TUXEDO OS, we reacted quickly and shipped corresponding bug fixes. For “Dirty Frag,” there is already an initial mitigation, even if the final fix is still pending. Beyond the daily patch work, there are also more pleasant developments: KeepSecret makes an appearance, and with Oxygen and Air, two KDE classics are celebrating a surprising comeback for KDE’s 30th anniversary. A bit of nostalgia between updates and kernel work never hurts.e.

Hi,

I am using Debian testing on an Infinity Book. Kernel updates seems to be a matter of fortune.

I am trying tuxedo kernels (6.14, 6.17) and standard kernels from Debian testing (6.19...). All driver modules are installed, as well as Tuxedo Control Center.

Sometimes the standard kernel works in all aspects, sometimes only the Tuxedo kernel works. Sometimes even the Tuxedo kernel doesn't work (in the moment its 6.17, which lacks fan and CPU speed settings.)

How can I use the (preferably most recent) standard kernel in a reliable way? If that does not work, how can I make sure that the most recent Tuxedo kernel supports all hardware components of my Infinity Book (5, if that matters)?

Thank you for helping...

Hello, Tuxedocomputers support (anyone here?),

It would be great to be able to read release notes for BIOS updates and not just try to (blindly) flash it and pray it would work 🥲

Last time I flashed the BIOS update, my laptop behaved very strange so at some moment I was thinking "That's it! Game over, now it's a brick." ... so now I see a new BIOS out for my hardware, but I'm damn scared to flash it w/o a serious reason (running the latest kernel I've built myself for Exherbo, I observe some bugs in `dmesg` and keep hoping some day they could be magically fixed with a BIOS update %)

Fan control on Clevo V360SNRQ (i9-14900HX) — any working solution on Linux?

Running Ubuntu 26.04. tuxedo-drivers loads tuxedo_compatibility_check but tuxedo_io fails with "No such device". TCC shows N/A for fan and temperature readings. nbfc-linux has no config for this chassis. Fans run aggressively even at low temps and light load. Anyone got this working?

Sleep function appears to just blank monitor. Kill-a-watt meter shows idle power drop from ~30W to 15W, fans continue spinning.

Same test using ubuntu 26.04 and KDE neon (kernel 6.17.x) drops power to 0-2w (s3), fans stop, etc. Proper s3 sleep.

Suggestions on how to proceed to get tux to sleep properly?
