Previously, we have seen someone running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on a Nintendo Switch game console. It just requires a lot of patchworks to get hardware acceleration and Wi-Fi networks. But if you want to install Canonical’s newly released Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system on Microsoft’s Surface Pro 3 two-in-one detachable laptop, here’s good news to tell you. Earlier today, a netizen named Framasphere posted a photo showing that it had successfully installed and run the Linux distribution on this Microsoft laptop.
The user claims that the installation process took only about 10 minutes in total to work without any patches and even dual boot with Windows.
In fact, as early as 2 years ago, the user had already written a tutorial on installing Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus) and Windows dual system.
Users who want to experience Ubuntu 18.04 on Surface Pro 3 can use it completely :
