Please, anybody got anything on this model (ACER Spin 5 SP513-54N NX.HQUEC.003) working on GNU/Linux Ubuntu?
- touchpad - not working at all
- neither touchscreen nor stylus/pen working
- Ubuntu cannot be installed due to Intel Optane RST SSD mode - there is no option in BIOS to actually change drive mode to something else (like AHCI)
I really do like this convertible notebook and I am willing to keep it, but if there is no way to make
Ubuntu running on it... I will have to search for something else (and that is something i do NOT want to do)
Thanks for any help.
I've put more info and debug logs on AskUbuntu:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1251719/ubuntu-20-04-acer-spin-5-sp513-54n-touchpad-and-touchscreen-stylus-pen-not-worAnd yes, I am aware that ACER SPIN notebooks officially do NOT support GNU/Linux operating systems - this is not an official complaint, I'm just willing to make it work - I am ready to tweak the system, use custom recompiled drivers etc...
Thanks!

- touchpad being solved here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1884232 (temporary workaround available)
- touchscreen - see above ^
- Switching to SATA AHCI mode via CTRL+S while in Main tab in BIOS works and solves issue 3. If you change modes remember to prepare OS Windows for that. No registry hacks needed, this is simpler and more transparent to follow: https://support.thinkcritical.com/kb/articles/switch-windows-10-from-raid-ide-to-ahci
