It is a framework mainboard. The display is almost certainly connected via displayport on one of the framework usb-c ports, so that should be fine, and I’m pretty sure they mention the game pads are Bluetooth. There should be no issues running Linux on this.

@thejevans @DoomBot5 crazy to think that popos and other Linux distributions don’t run on Framework

They most likely do, and without any problems. They’re just not *officially* supported; you can’t ask for support if there’s an issue.

They officially supported the two largest user distros. Beyond that, there are community supported distros. I can’t imagine it would be too hard to get other supported ones on there if someone wanted to maintain it.
