You have no idea how snappy #Silverblue runs and how gorgeous the screen is of my Thinkpad #x13s ❀️

On the latest #fedora 42 #thinkpad #x13s has learned to suspend properly on closing the lid.

For about 10 hours the battery lost almost nothing.

That is awesome.

I have tried Ubuntu 24.10 on the Thinkpad X13s with snapdragon 8cx processor. This is the first release where you can just install the standard ARM iso. Mostly works very well, a few niggles remain but this feels like the first normal ARM laptop. All my previous ones worked great but performance was a bit so so. This one is snappi and they got cheaper on eBay.

I need to try other distros now.

My #postmarketOS install on my #X13s broke beyond repair (i missed an initramfs related issue that must have been introduced through an upgrade at the right time where a simple `apk fix` could have fixed everything). I am now fighting with #ArchLinuxARM (started with following https://github.com/KingBBQ/arch_x13s?tab=readme-ov-file, which should not be that hard, but since I want to have luks and systemd-boot, because security... it's a pain. Currently compiling a kernel as I was lacking a module.

Sorry to update, I parted with my brand new, fully decked out, waited two months to get #lenovo #x13S with a #snapdragon chip, was looking to get the battery life and the freedom of #linux on a very nice built laptop, but after testing #ubuntu and #Gentoo I ran into several issues, first one was Wifi intermittent drops, which where a no go from the start, the other was having to reboot if I closed the screen… Not sure if it was bad luck DOA manufacturing or Linux common problems. 
Quick Pole, I’m about to return my day old #lenovo #x13s #snapdragon with #linux What distro/os are you running? I’m runing into wifi and locking issues.

People writing me private emails asking about problems with firmware updates on the #X13s πŸ˜‡ ...
Anyone out there running #Debian on the #ThinkPad #X13s? It's time for me to upgrade my 11-year old laptop and I think I'd like a nice ARM laptop but not necessarily an M1/M2 MacBook... last I heard the cameras are not fully working on the X13s so I would not want to have to dualboot into Windows every time I have a video conference.
