Issues
Audio
The exynos 4412 quad has audio support, but it is hit-or-miss and here it is very dodgy, with KDE not making a sound
Charging
Charging works, but is slow. You'll probably need to turn the display off for the charge to increase.
On GNOME, the charging state icon doesn't change until you restart the device.
WiFi
If your device is N8020, you'll likely need to run this command to be able to connect to WiFi networks. Otherwise, WiFi is functional.
$ sudo ln -sf /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,i9305.txt /lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac4334-sdio.samsung,n8010.txt
Non-functional hardware
The S-Pen is currently not working.
