Hi guys. I know I'm not the first one with the question... How can I get my touchscreen working? I installed the commands from git GitHub - linux-surface/linux-surface: Linux Kernel for Surface Devices
But without success
and
https://linux.org/threads/ubuntu-22-04-on-surface-pro-7.43071/
didn't work either.
I'm using the surface pro4
Please help!
Thanks Loeschi.
Please post in/out-put of the commands you have used. Saying "didn't work" is a bit vague to help you on.
Sorry... I'm still learning. I will load up the commands.

i followed the instructions from git. Reboot.. in my boot system it added zorin surface. when i click it it is telling me "bad shim signature". it want let me boot into it.
The “Bad Shim Signature” error occurs when we attempt to boot a custom kernel that is not signed or has a signature that the system does not recognize.
Have you disabled secure boot in BIOS?
Thank you so much. It is working now. What a simple fix.
Would you have an answer please for the error code I'm getting
E: Sub-process /user/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
I need to see the whole output, but my guess is you need to disable the repositories you have added earlier. You can do that in software center in the hamburger menu.
i did a sudo apt upgrade. the output is:
