Hi!

I bought a Samsung Chromebook and when trying to install 2x client is says my device is not supported. Why?
 
Thanks for sharing useful source and information guideline. I enjoyed the whole post and got lots of ideas and useful suggestions. This is new information for me.
 
There have been issues with this client on Chromebooks where the display appears to have horizontal lines, and in my case, a checkerboard pattern, of data that isn't refreshing properly. This makes the app useless on the ARM-edition Samsung Chromebook.

This is a shame, as I use 2X extensively for Android.

The 'checkerboard' pattern is known to happen with Samsung ARM Chromebooks. This seems to be related to hardware acceleration. Until a solution is found try temporary disabling hardware acceleration and the issue should not persist:

To disable hardware accelaration on your Chromebook:

1. Navigate to chrome://flags from your browser
2. Locate the 'Disable accelerated 2D canvas' option and click the Enable link beneath
3. Restart your Chromebook
 
Disabling hardware acceleration works. How do I get this setting on managed Chromebooks? I have made the change but it doesn't stick.

How do I do this please?

I've seen a forum post below this saying that this is not possible, but this release post (and the front page) indicate it is possible.
