year), so it's worth being very cautious about.
Probably it's technically possible to flash different firmware onto
the thing, and Google have been fantastic about releasing firmware
code [2], so it may be fixable. But it's
rom a desktop environment, I don't know. Any thoughts as to
that? Should I document that (and the workaround I added to
/etc/pm/sleep.d) in the wiki page, do you think?
As I say, my solution is just backup lots and trust in my script
that shuts the computer down if the battery
tos provided by Google (which is awesome), but it's very much
not recommended. And they do things like use a non-standard SSD
size, so it isn't replaceable.
