# Notes on using Debian GNU/Linux on a Dell Venue 8 Pro 5855
The following notes assume GNOME is used.
This is known to work with Debian Testing at the time of writing, other versions are unknown.
## What Works
- Display
- Touch
- USB
- Battery
- Audio*
- Bluetooth
- LTE
Untested: NFC
Unsolved: Camera
\*requires installing the firmware
## Fixes
To get a button to close windows:
```
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout 'minimize,maximize,close,appmenu'
```
Without this, one might get stuck because windows cannot be closed. (Why is there no button for closing windows by default?)
## Required Packages
To get sound working, install the required firmware: `firmware-intel-sound`
Don't forget to reboot after installing it.
## Other things that might be useful
Create `.config/environment.d/envvars.conf` and as content use `MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1`
