Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 8c84e

This documentation PR adds installation and hardware-management guidance, but the current head still contains multiple actionable inaccuracies: some commands and service steps may not work, hardware- or distribution-dependent behavior is presented as universal, and the BitLocker guidance could lead to incorrect protection handling. Merge readiness is high risk until these instructions and support claims are corrected.

Inline comments:
In `@docs/distributions/bazzite.md`:
- Around line 7-8: Update the Bazzite documentation to remove the unsupported
ujust asus install path and document the complete Homebrew asusctl-linux cask
installation flow, including explicitly enabling and starting the required
systemd services after installation.

In `@docs/distributions/fedora.md`:
- Around line 184-186: Align the table-of-contents entry for “Graphics
Switching” with its level-three heading: either remove the indentation that
makes it a child of “Setup” or change the heading back to level four, preserving
consistent hierarchy between the contents and document headings.

In `@docs/distributions/opensuse.md`:
- Around line 313-315: Update the GPU Switching link in the Graphics Switching
section to reference ../faq/gpu-switching.md instead of
../hardware/gpu-switching.md, preserving the existing link text and surrounding
documentation.

In `@docs/distributions/pikaos.md`:
- Line 23: Update docs/distributions/pikaos.md lines 23-23 and
docs/distributions/ubuntu.md lines 32-32 so the Usage link remains for platform
profiles and fan curves, while GPU-switching instructions link to
../faq/gpu-switching.md.

In `@docs/distributions/ubuntu.md`:
- Around line 7-24: Update the Ubuntu Homebrew instructions after the installer
command to apply the installer-provided shell-environment setup before invoking
brew. Change the tap to ublue-os/tap, install asusctl-linux and
rog-control-center-linux with brew install --cask, add the specified system and
user service enablement commands, and update the GPU Switching link to
../faq/gpu-switching.md.
- Around line 26-30: Update the Ubuntu installation instructions after cask
installation to enable and start asusd.service and asus-shutdown.service, reload
and trigger udev rules, then check asusd.service status; for GUI installations,
also reload the user systemd daemon and enable/start asusd-user.service.

In `@docs/faq/general.md`:
- Line 49: Update the BIOS guidance near the note about versions 408 and 409 so
users have a supported path to BIOS 410: link to the stable ASUS model support
page or document the official update procedure. Preserve the existing kernel
compatibility requirement.

In `@docs/faq/gpu-switching.md`:
- Around line 34-41: Update the Cardwire section before its installation
recommendation to document the required Wayland, systemd, and CONFIG_BPF_LSM
prerequisites, including an appropriate link to the requirements. Preserve the
existing services.cardwired.enable NixOS option and installation guidance.
- Around line 24-29: Update the GPU switching documentation around the asusctl
commands to explain that MUX-capable systems require the paired
(dgpu_disable,gpu_mux_mode) mappings: Integrated=(1,1), Hybrid=(0,1), and
Ultimate=(0,0). Alternatively, direct users to ROG Control Center as the
interface that writes both attributes, while retaining the existing positional
dgpu_disable syntax.

In `@docs/faq/graphics.md`:
- Line 12: Update the “Missing configuration” item in the graphics FAQ to
include a link to the distribution setup guidance, using either
../distributions/index.md or ../getting-started/supported-distributions.md,
while retaining the existing configuration advice.

In `@docs/getting-started/prerequisites.md`:
- Around line 53-65: Update the dual-boot warning before the Secure Boot
instructions to tell users to save their BitLocker recovery key and suspend
BitLocker protection before changing UEFI settings, then resume protection after
Windows starts successfully. Remove the instruction to disable or decrypt
BitLocker, while preserving the existing Secure Boot steps.
- Around line 41-43: Update the VMD guidance in the prerequisites documentation
to state that Linux has upstream VMD support, but disabling VMD is only a
workaround when the installer cannot detect storage behind it. Keep the AMD RAID
guidance unchanged.
- Around line 33-37: Remove the empty quoted line between the warning title and
body in the Markdown alert, keeping the [!WARNING] block contiguous so it
satisfies MD028.

Apply the same fix in `@docs/getting-started/recommendations.md` around lines 11 -
15: Same empty quoted line separates the caution title from its body.

Apply the same fix in `@docs/getting-started/prerequisites.md` around lines 33 -
37.

In `@docs/getting-started/recommendations.md`:
- Around line 61-70: Update the verification instructions around
power_dpm_force_performance_level to avoid hardcoding card2; tell users to
replace the card identifier with the GPU path discovered on their system, or add
a sysfs discovery step before reading the value, while preserving the existing
battery-mode expectation.

In `@docs/getting-started/supported-distributions.md`:
- Around line 7-16: Remove the second duplicate Bazzite entry from the supported
distributions list, leaving the first Bazzite entry and all other distributions
unchanged.
- Around line 37-44: The getting-started prerequisites should not require
removing all distro-provided graphics-switching tools. Update the
graphics-switching bullet to instruct users to choose one manager for their use
case, while preserving tools such as supergfxctl and supergfxd when required for
VFIO.

In `@docs/introduction.md`:
- Around line 17-20: Update the Kernel requirement text to state that Linux 6.19
is the minimum supported kernel version, replacing the weaker “minimum
suggested” wording while preserving the existing feature and driver context.
- Line 28: Resolve the broken G-Helper reference in the introduction by either
creating docs/hardware/g-helper.md and adding it to docs/SUMMARY.md, or removing
the “G-Helper Comparison” link if that page is not intended.

In `@docs/usage/asusctl.md`:
- Around line 109-113: The fan-curve documentation gives inconsistent
point-count and --fan requirements. Align the contract, examples, and option
table for fan-curve so they consistently describe the actual CLI behavior,
including whether --data requires --fan and whether --fan defaults to cpu;
ensure every example uses the documented point count and required options.
- Around line 5-11: Add documentation to the daemon troubleshooting note
explaining that commands are rejected when the asusctl client and asusd daemon
versions differ, and instruct users to install matching asusctl and asusd
versions; retain the existing journalctl guidance for other daemon errors.
- Around line 52-60: Update the “Available profiles” section in the
documentation to clarify that profile choices vary by system and are dependent
on laptop or kernel support. Direct users to use asusctl profile list as the
authoritative source instead of presenting all listed profiles as universally
available.

Make the VMD workaround conditional and remove the unsafe Windows repair sequence.

Do not present RAID-driver removal and Safe Mode booting as a generic fix. This can leave Windows unbootable. State that VMD should be disabled only when the installer cannot detect storage, and direct users to the supported Windows or OEM recovery procedure. Also revise the preceding claim that VMD is unsupported by Linux.

Link directly to the requirements page or state that Cardwire requires Wayland, systemd, and CONFIG_BPF_LSM. The current section moves readers from an experimental warning to distribution-specific installation commands without exposing these prerequisites.

Restore the supported Homebrew cask installation flow.

The guide uses brew tap ublue-os/homebrew-tap and installs both packages as formulae. A fresh Linux Homebrew installation also needs the shell-environment command printed by the installer before brew is available. Use brew tap ublue-os/tap, install both packages with brew install --cask, and keep the service setup below.

Prevent DBus activation from undoing the profile-daemon change.

The option-1 command only disables and stops power-profiles-daemon. The Fedora and Bazzite guides document that KDE PowerDevil can activate this service again through DBus. If KDE is supported here, use mask --now instead, or state the desktop limitation.

Resolve the supergfxctl contradiction.

Line 329 links to docs/faq/gpu-switching.md, where supergfxctl is described as deprecated and Cardwire is the replacement. The retained lines 333-338 still instruct users to install and enable supergfxctl. Remove that block, or label it as a legacy VFIO-only exception and explain why the Cardwire path does not apply.

Do not turn “unsupported” into “never run”.

The page establishes a minimum kernel requirement and marks these distributions as unsupported. It does not establish that users should never run them on newer devices. State the support boundary instead.

Do not turn the kernel recommendation into a hard requirement.

docs/getting-started/supported-distributions.md:28-40 calls >= 6.19 the minimum recommended version, but this line says the kernel “must” be >=6.19. Use the recommendation wording here.

Proposed fix
-See the [Supported Distributions](../getting-started/supported-distributions.md) page for the officially supported distributions and what to expect on others. In short: The kernel must be >=6.19.

Use precise prerequisite wording.

The phrase utilizes the Linux Kernel, not BSD or so is vague. The >= 6.19 notation is less clear than the plain-language requirement.

Do not recommend DistroBox as a fix for an unsupported host.

DistroBox uses the host kernel, so it cannot satisfy Linux >= 6.19 when the host kernel is older. It also does not replace the host asusd service. Document the supported host-kernel, host-service, and D-Bus requirements, or remove this recommendation.

Do not require source builds when a distribution provides a package.

Solus is listed above as packaging asusctl, but this sentence says that every unsupported distribution must build from source. Make the source-build instruction conditional on the absence of a distribution package.

Proposed wording

Do not present every documented distribution as officially supported.

docs/distributions/arch.md states that Arch Linux is the only distribution directly supported by maintainers. This page lists distributions with written guides, which is a different guarantee. Rename the page and introduction, or state the support distinction explicitly.
