This page describes using Arch Linux on the HP tx2z Tablet PC.

## WiFi

Follow the setup from Broadcom BCM4312.

## Input

### Function keys

almost all Fn keys work out of the box.

- rotate screen button and configuration button are not recognized by xev
- Fn + F[1-4] are bound as:

    $ xev | grep -A2 --line-buffered '^KeyRelease' | sed -n '/keycode /s/^.*keycode \([0-9]*\).* (.*, \(.*\)).*$/\1 \2/p'
    146 Help         <- Fn+F1
    33 p             <- Fn+F2*
    37 Control_L     <- Fn+F2* (Fn+F2 performs both functions simultaneously)
    180 XF86HomePage <- Fn+F3
    33 p             <- Fn+F4

### Touchscreen and stylus

This article or section needs expansion.

Reason: This was written before libinput became the default, needs to be tested with it. (Discuss in Talk:HP TouchSmart tx2)

The touch screen works with the drivers from the xf86-input-synaptics package. To set up multitouch functionality, see Touchpad Synaptics. For the stylus, see Tablet PC#Stylus.

### Remote

- Works by default: Super (Windows Button), Squiggly (turns screen brightness down), Arrow keys (behave like the ones on the keyboard), volume controls.
- Does not work by default: Power, DVD, Play, Stop, Forward, Backward, previous, next, up, info, ok?
