<p>I ordered this machine at the same time that I ordered the Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition. This X1
Carbon Gen 8 machine works flawlessly with Ubuntu. You can get it from the factory with Ubuntu
preinstall. The only change you have to make to run this on Windows or Linux is one setting in the
BIOS (regarding the sleep state of the CPU). There are no custom PPAs for driver software. So you
can just boot from a Linux Live CD (ISO) and you can install Ubuntu 20.04 and you are good
