Hi,  
I installed [Ubuntu Mate 19.10 (alpha)](https://ubuntu-mate.org/gpd-pocket/ubuntu-mate-19.10-alpha1-desktop-amd64-gpd-micropc.iso) today on the P2 Max.  
Everything works out of the box as far as I can tell except the Touchscreen.  
Suspend for some reason does not turn off the fan though.  
At idle (just running Psensor) its running at 37/38 degress C  
With Firefox open with one tab ([mozilla.org](http://mozilla.org)) and nothing else happening 40/41 degrees C

OK, so I cleaned the old paste off the CPU and Heatsink pipe using Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA)  
I repasted using Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut  
Booted Ubuntu Mate 19.10 (alpha)  
At idle (just running Psensor) its running at 34/35 degrees C  
With Firefox open with one tab ([mozilla.org](http://mozilla.org)) and nothing else happening 36/37 degrees C  
Both tests were done on Ubuntu Mate 19.10 (alpha) at 2560x1600  
and 5% brightness in Power Management Preferences
