That’s interesting. There is a Batch 1 customer with Linux Keyboard in UK who hasn’t received the email yet. I am guessing you are from a region with more orders.

Sorry, I haven’t been charged yet. I was referring to the we’re preparing your batch email. I will let you know when I get charged. I’m from Canada.

Getting exited now i wanted to pay earlyer but i could only use the one payment i chose in the beginning so i had to transfer the cash and it took until today to arive an i payed at 15:30 so im exited when it will arive…

I received mine. Installed Ubuntu 22 LTS. I recommend not updating to the latest kernel, version 6.5. After doing so I could not connect to my wifi. Choosing the previous version, 6.2, in Grub allowed me to connect.

Otherwise smooth sailing. Took me 25 minutes to put together my DIY and get to first boot.

The Kernel 6.5 is a bit problematic. I bought a Lexar NM790 which is not supported in 6.5, only 6.5.5 and later. Regarding the wifi: per default, I was only able to connect to 2,4 Ghz wifi, I fixed it with this guide (installs an 6.5 oem kernel that fixes some bugs): https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/linux-docs/blob/main/ubuntu-22.04-fw-16.md

My card was charged at 1:23 PM PT / 9:23 PM UTC!!!

None of my fellow Linux keyboard users have been charged apparently from Batch 2 and 1. Very sad and disappointing.
