Hi, recently I install lubuntu 18.04 in my pcbox, work fine, smooth, fast, werever... So, everything is OK but some troubles in the path.
With the Atom z8300 and the intel HD via HDMI I have no sound at all,
WiFi realtek RTL8152 don't up, so I connect by regular cable.

So... Have any distro of Linux can be compatible with this processor and his complements?

thank you..

PD:I know that exist too many post with this topic, but I need to post anyway.

Sound on HDMI can be problematic. Is there any other sound output? The Realtek 8152 is not a wireless chip. Try looking again.

You right... Realtek8723 is the wifi.

You are lucky you got that far, some of the Atoms are goofy loader deals.

Start by finding what audio device it is trying to use/currently using.

Outdated but start here. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto

Be sure to have up-to-date kernel's and intel drivers installed.

Realtek is a common issue solved usually by one of two things. Blacklist wrong driver and or install current OEM driver.
