Samsung Galaxy Book S: issues with battery, sound and graphics

Hi,

I've just installed ArchLinux on a Samsung Galaxy Book S (Intel Lakefield) and I have the following issues:

- I don't have any sound (pulseaudio doesn't detect my soundcard)
- Only the `fbdev` driver works
- The battery works but is not listed in `/sys/class/power_supply` so I can't tell how much battery is left.

I wasn't sure whether to split this into three topics or if there's an underlying common issue (for example, the keyboard and trackpad didn't work until linux 5.17).

Output of `lspci`

Re: Samsung Galaxy Book S: issues with battery, sound and graphics

hello, did you get linux running on the galaxy book S ??
(I find it really interesting as it's light and fanless (and not too expensive on ebay))
thanks !
