Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So I heard that the zenbook 13/14 don't have any audio on linux, but then I found some reddit comment saying that a kernel update fixed it. Anyone here who uses one and can confirm that?

I have a newer Zenbook and can confirm when I first got it, and wiped windows to put Ubuntu on it, audio didn't work from the speakers. Headphones worked just fine. There's a blog from some Asus dev community documenting the issues and resolution. I'm on mobile right now and can't find it. I can confirm it was addressed on Fedora a few kernel releases back though and that all is well. I'll post the blog link shortly. Per post above please provide your model number.
