Asus Zenbook Pro UX535
Tested on a slightly modified device - the Intel Optane combination SSD was replaced with a higher capacity Sabrent Drive. From Using the Optane Drive without Optane Mode in Windows, I hypothesise that the drive should work assuming the BIOS Settings are Correct - I believe there was a RAID mode I turned off? In Windows, the Optane blocks appeared as a separate drive, I'd suggest maybe use this as Swap?
ScreenPad:
Configuration for the ScreenPad is unable to be provided here at this time, due to reliance on Additional Modules not included in Nixpkgs. If you want to install the ScreenPad Kernel Module, I recommend using the packaging of it for nix created by MatthewCash. It can be installed as below:
# flake.nix
{
inputs = {
nixpkgs = {
url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";
};
screenpad-driver={
url = "github:MatthewCash/asus-wmi-screenpad-module";
inputs.nixpkgs.follows="nixpkgs";
};
};
outputs = inputs@{nixpkgs, screenpad-driver, ...}:{
# Replace hostname with your hostname
nixosConfigurations.hostname=inputs.nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem{
modules = [
./configuration.nix
{
boot.extraModulePackages = let
screenpad-driver-package = (kernelPackage:
let
asus-wmi-screenpad = screenpad-driver.defaultPackage.${system}.override{kernel=kernelPackage;};
in [
asus-wmi-screenpad
]
);
in (screenpad-driver-package ${yourKernelPackages}.kernel); # Replace ${yourKernelPackages} with the value of your config.boot.kernelPackages, for me, this would be pkgs.kernelPackages_latest
boot.kernelModules = [
"asus-wmi-screenpad"
];
}
];
};
};
}
I also recommend writing some kind of script to be able to turn the screenpad On and Off with the correct positioning. If you're using KDE Plasma, feel free to use mine. You may also want a script to be able to turn on the main display, as it has an irritating habit of turning itself off, making the screenpad the primary display whenever you plug in a new monitor configuration.
Battery charging limit:
Due to the common module for ASUS batteries, you can make your battery only charge up to a certain percentage to improve its life. You can place something similar to the following in your configuration to enable it.
hardware.asus.battery =
{
chargeUpto = 90; # Maximum level of charge for your battery, as a percentage.
enableChargeUptoScript = true; # Whether to add charge-upto to environment.systemPackages. `charge-upto 100` temporarily sets the charge limit to 100%, useful if you're going to need the extra battery on a longer journey.
};
Thunderbolt:
I don't own any Thunderbolt devices to be able to test transfer speeds or PCIe Tunnelling, but I've tested both USB Monitors and Display-Out though the Thunderbolt 3 port and both seem to work well.
