(Dedicated) Support for Tuxedo laptops?

Hello,

I see that currently Bazzite has dedicated images for Framework/Surface/Asus laptops (as seen in Image Picker). Would it be possible/feasible to also add dedicated images for Tuxedo latpops?

From what I gather, this would require building/including kernel modules/drivers from https://gitlab.com/tuxedocomputers/development/packages/tuxedo-drivers and also preinstalling Tuxedo Control Center app (https://github.com/tuxedocomputers/tuxedo-control-center) - which itself depends on said tuxedo-drivers.

I found that there was already ticket related to that in akmods repo (https://github.com/ublue-os/akmods/issues/30), but I'm not sure if any decision regarding it has been made. Also (in the meantime), tuxedo-keyboard has been deprecated in favor of tuxedo-drivers.

I'm asking this because I have a Tuxedo laptop on the way (Pulse 14 Gen 3) and there are some HW related features (KB backlight, fan control etc.) which won't work properly on the Linux OS without those drivers. If possible, I'd like to use Bazzite or Bluefin on this laptop since Bazzite has been great on my Steam Deck OLED so far.

Thank you in advance.

Best Regards,
Raltay
