New to FW 12, chassis and stylus questions

Framework Laptop 12
1

Framework 12 arrived, so excited! Have few newbie questions:

  • there are holes on side back, one on each side. Is that for ventilation?
  • Does stylus have on/off switch I’m missing? Or it just works?
  • Is there recommended Linux drawing app to try stylus out?

The holes on the sides in the corners are Kensington lock attachment points. Nano size maybe? I think Kensington calls it nano.

The stylus doesn’t have an on/off switch. I believe it goes into a sort of standby mode when it isn’t being moved around and then sort of “wakes up” when it’s moving around. At least, that’s how I understand most to work when they don’t have a dedicated power on/off method.

I’m sure there are other options for Linux, but I’ve mostly used an app called Krita.

Cheers!
