Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite Powered Linux Laptop Prototype Shown

The launch of the Qualcomm Snapdragon X series of processing chips has shown many offers that use laptops with the Microsoft Windows 11 operating system, especially with built-in artificial intelligence technology that promises increased productivity.At the Computex, Taipei event that took place last week, there is a technology company that has shown their laptop prototype that uses the same processing chip, but will run the Linux operating system.This company is called Tuxedo, and is a subsidiary of Schenker Technologies which also owns another laptop maker, which is XMG from Germany. Tuxedo is seen as a company that focuses on the development of laptops that use the Linux open source operating system.In terms of specifications, this prototype laptop comes with a 14-inch screen display with a resolution of 2560×1600, and shows the use of a Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite processing chip, along with 32GB of LPDDR5X memory and also a room for PCIe 4.0 SSD storage. The frame of this laptop is made of aluminum, and has plugs such as USB Type-A, USB Type-C and HDMI.If you are wondering if there is a version of Linux that can be driven by the Qualcomm Snapdragon X processing chip, the short answer is no. For now, the operating system for the series of processing chips is still under development, and Qualcomm has also said that support for the operating system has just been introduced.Tuxedo expects that it will take a few months to see the first Linux operating systems that support this processor chip, but is not too worried about it because support updates for new processor chips typically won't take too long.In fact, this Tuxedo laptop prototype was shown using Debian for ARM, the only issue was that it was stuck in a bootloop issue and could not access the desktop site.Tuxedo didn't promise when they would start selling the laptop, but hinted that they hope to start offering it around the end of the year.
