# Linux on Honor Magicbook 14 Pro

This repository contains a record of all the steps required to get the Honor Magicbook 14 Pro laptop working with Linux.

While issues (and solutions) can be discussed and tracked in this repository, its purpose is not to provide code, but rather to organize things and provide the necessary information needed to run Linux on this device.

## Status

Since october 2025 it is possible to run Linux as a daily driver by appliying some tweaks.

The main problem is that the BIOS (v1.13) contains faulty ACPI tables (DSDT). 
These tables provide information about the computer's hardware so that Linux can find and use the hardware components. 
This works if the ACPI tables are correct and Linux has drivers for the hardware. Since the current tables are not correct, Linux cannot find all of the hardware.

Fortunately there's a patch for this and other problems.

### What works

- :heavy_check_mark: Native screen resolution
- :heavy_check_mark: Graphics hardware
- :heavy_check_mark: Wifi
- :heavy_check_mark: USB-C (screen, ethernet, hid, etc…)
- :heavy_check_mark: Fn Keys (some)
- :heavy_check_mark: Touchpad
- :heavy_check_mark: Audio
- :heavy_check_mark: Bluetooth
- :heavy_check_mark: Webcam
- :heavy_check_mark: Fan control
- :heavy_check_mark: Lid switch
- :heavy_check_mark: Suspend/Resume

### What works (with tweaks)

- :heavy_check_mark: Keyboard, Works with kernel 6.19: [#1](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/1)
- :heavy_check_mark: Fingerprint Reader, See [#6](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/6)

### What doesn't work

- :x: Touchscreen, See [#5](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/5)
- :x: Fn Keys (some), See [#4](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/4)
- :x: LED on Caps-Lock and Mic key, See [#9](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/9)
- :x: Fan speed, See: [#7](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/7)
- :x: Power button, See: [#8](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/8)
- :x: Respect battery tresholds, See: [#10](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/10)

### Tested Linux Distributions

#### Fedora 43, 44

Kernel 6.18, 6.19 (Keyboard works)

## Quickstart

### 1. Keyboard and Sound

If your kernel is below 7.0 you might need following boot parameter to the kernel commandline to fix keyboard and sound:

```
i8042.dumbkbd=1 snd-intel-dspcfg.dsp_driver=3 snd-hda-intel.model=generic
```

See: [#1](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/1) [#2](https://github.com/colorcube/Linux-on-Honor-Magicbook-14-Pro/issues/2)

How to set boot parameter: [google](https://www.google.com/search?q=How+do+I+add+a+linux+kernel+boot+parameter)

### 2. Touchpad

Look here for instructions to install a patched DSDT to make the touchpad work:

https://github.com/denis-bb/honor-fmb-p-dsdt

### 3. Screen brightness

With some kernel version a weird device is present which changes screen brightnes.
Disable the weird device which causes the screen to go dark and to full brightness:

Add a udev rule to disable the device by adding following file: [/etc/udev/rules.d/99-ignore-touchpad-device.rules](etc/udev/rules.d/99-ignore-touchpad-device.rules)

And reboot.
