Absolutely! While I have you here, if you could fill out a support request (https://framework.kustomer.help/contact/support-request-ryon9uAuq), you should be in warranty though for the user to request a new module. Please link to this thread in the request.

Note: "This is the early support for the Framework 13 AMD and still does require binary blobs but at least this is progress being made and better than the default proprietary BIOS.

Great question. This is part of a larger project for 2024 and 2025 - community distro support. Community members active on community distros, already providing support/docs for these projects will be invited. Debian among others are welcome once I account it for other distros.

2024-05-02 13:52:23

This has been in the works for some time. With help from the NixOS community, we're set up to begin the process of introducing NixOS as a Community support distro.
NixOS community will be helping Framework with docs and related and we will provide hardware to those selected.
Some details being ironed out. This is a method of ensuring NixOS users identified as ideal candidates (a couple of selected people) can help us ensure we have Framework docs in place.
