Nope, no problems whatsoever for me during install, but mine was R3 so things may be different. I remember I had a lot of problems while using the system though, as an instance the screen did not wake up after sleep. Needless to say, I completely gave up on using the Nvidia card and relied entirely on the intel one.
At the end of the day, I bought a linux 100% compatible laptop and now I'm happier than ever. I installed Windows and a shitload of emulators on the good old Alienware and I use it for what is meant for, gaming. There is no personal data whatsoever on the PC now, so this approach does not spoil my privacy and security. I'm pretty sure you can make a lot of stuff work with a sufficient amount of headaches and swearing, but in the end some things won't be fixable (drivers issues, mainly). Also, you should consider that Qubes won't make justice to such a beautiful machine, and that you may not be able to use most of the nice features of the Alienware. I love Qubes but according to my experience Alienware is not the kind of computer you want it installed on. This is obviously just my personal opinion, so take it for what is worth (nothing :P ) Cheers, Fab On Fri, Mar 17, 2017 at 11:23 PM, <tafleming2...@gmail.com> wrote: > How did you get it installed?
