I'm sorry that I didn't see this sooner, but I've been running on my SP3 now for about 2years. I maintain a GitHub repo with kernel configs and a installation manual, so if you'd like to give that a spin and submit patches/ideas as they come, I'd be happy to merge them: https://github.com/danielquinn/Gentoo-Surface-Pro-3
