This makes sense.

The amount of fine tuning I had to do for my X1 7th generation with Ubuntu 19.10 was almost unbearable. Sound still is not working properly, the internal mic is still not working at all.



My T480s had 0 issues with Debian 10. It doesn't have a fingerprint reader which I hear is a main bug a boo with Thinkpads.


Same with my T470P, it works out the box.

The only thing I had to do was compile a module for also so I got high quality aptx Bluetooth for my wireless headphones but that’s an IP issue not something I can blame Fedora or Lenovo for.

My T470P with Fedora is as little issue as my work issued 16” MacBook Pro.


Ditto. No issues with my T480 and Fedora -- 100% out of the box. Previous thinkpads did fine with Ubuntu and Fedora as well.


There are multiple issues with X1s on 19.10:

- Fingerprint reader - Sound - Microphone

I'll see what 20.04 can help with.
