Qubes-certified Laptops
=======================
Qubes-certified laptops are regularly tested by the Qubes
developers to ensure compatibility with all of Qubes' features. The developers
test all new major versions and updates to ensure that no regressions are introduced.
To learn more about the certification process, or if you're interested in
getting your company's hardware Qubes-certified, please see the [Hardware
Certification] page.
We aim to partner with a few select computer makers to ensure that Qubes is
compatible with them and new users have clear path towards getting started
with Qubes if they desire. We look for these makers to be as diverse as possible
in terms of geography, cost, and availability.
Note that we certify only that a particular configuration is supported by Qubes.
We take no responsibility for our partners' shipping process -- including that
the hardware will not be modified in any way (malicious or not).
For more general information about choosing hardware for Qubes, please see the
[System Requirements] and the [Hardware Compatibility List].

For users now who seek to buy a Librem 13, there is an option to have Qubes
pre-installed. This will include all the necessary tweaks for
maximum compatibility with Qubes.
In addition, the Qubes team will receive a small portion of the revenue from any
Librem 13 sale that comes with Qubes pre-installed.
For existing Librem 13 users, please follow the instructions to ensure maximum
compatibility with Qubes:
1. In `dom0`, open a terminal and type:
sudo qubes-dom0-update --releasever=3.1 xorg-x11-drivers xorg-x11-drv-intel
2. (optional) Enable newer kernel:
sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable kernel
Certified for Qubes R4.x
------------------------
There are [updated requirements] for Qubes R4.x certification. Currently, no
