Re: Install debian on ASUS Vivobook 15

Oh, sorry it was translated by deepl. I meant that my primary pc was 
working on Arch.

Yesterday I installed Debian and everything works good.
But I realized that I have mt7902, which isn't supported by Linux.

So I have already ordered ax200.

Best regards,
David
