The 2 things I miss on my HP X360 Envy is fingerprint and rotation. I have some version that simply Fedora can't detect rotation mode while I've seen others do it for older versions of x360. Now thanks for the fingerprint link I'll check that one out but I gotta say, it's just smooth experience. Didn't believe KDE was so optimized now until my current installation.

Let me know how the fingerprint trial goes, make sure your reader is a Goodix one coz the steps are for that particular hardware

Sadly I don't think it is. But I'll try finding similar solution for mine if it happens that I could find proper model. Sometimes names in the system are incorrectly shown and HP and others don't really have a good database for exact laptop model. It's kinda hard to find. But I'll try still

Tried replacing those goodix with broadcom libs but didn't work. I doesn't crash or anything just fingerprint is not detected so I guess I'm giving up
