I would be great if Porteus could include the drivers from the Linux Surface project ( https://github.com/linux-surface/ )
I'm specifically looking for the Touchscreen drivers for Surface Pro 4 and newer. Surface Pro 3 works great but not newer ones.
I've been waiting for the drivers to be included upstream in the kernel but that seems to take a very long time.
Distriubtions like Ubuntu have working touchscreen so I guess these drivers are used there.

Hello innoit,
3rd party drivers will never be included in the official kiosk release. If we started doing this we would end up in an unmaintained mess.
Customized build is your only option.
Thanks
