Has anyone installed Gentoo on a Framework Desktop? Any issues worth mentioning?
I ordered a Framework Desktop computer back on November 5th.
I think it got delivered in December.
I put it together yesterday (January 5th).
...
The instructions are pretty good. I was able to put it together pretty easily.
However, I encountered a problem.
The Framework Desktop computer is not outputting anything on HDMI.
(Which, of course, makes it unusable.)
...
I reached out to Framework Support (via e-mail). Hopefully, they can help.

Framework introduces new accessories for its Desktop and 12 inch laptop including a 10 inch 2U Mini ITX Shelf and a Handle for the desktop and a stylus for the Framework Laptop 12. https://frame.work/blog/extending-on-framework-desktop-stylus-availability-and-a-roundup-of-gaming-performance #FrameworkDesktop #FrameworkLaptop12
Framework Desktop reviews are out, and the AMD Strix Halo-powered mini PC appears to offer strong performance, but a less modular design than you'd expect. The mainboard though, presents interesting opportunities... like cluster computing for a DIY AI workstation. https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2025/i-clustered-four-framework-mainboards-test-huge-llms#FrameworkDesktop#AI #ClusterComputing#StrixHalo
This work-in-progress DIY fanless PC has a 7.5 liter chassis and some heavy-duty passive cooling. It's built to support a Framework Desktop mainboard with an AMD Ryzen AI Max 395+ chip and 64GB of unified memory. https://www.fanlesstech.com/2025/07/custom-75l-strix-halo-system.html #fanless#PC#FrameworkDesktop#StrixHalo#AMD
