OpenBSD on the Huawei MateBook X

posted to writings on jul 14th, 2017 with tags laptops, nerd, and openbsd

The Huawei MateBook X is a high-quality 13" ultra-thin laptop with a fanless Core i5 processor. It is obviously biting the design of the Apple 12" MacBook, but it does have some notable improvements such as a slightly larger screen, a more usable keyboard with adequate key travel, and 2 USB-C ports.

It also uses more standard PC components than the MacBook, such as a PS/2-connected keyboard, removable m.2 WiFi card, etc., so its OpenBSD compatibility is quite good.
