[qubes-users] HCL - Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga 2016 (20FQ005UGE)
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 Hi all Adding to the reports about the Thinkpad X1 Carbon 4th gen (20FB), here are my experiences with the ThinkPad X1 Yoga 20FQ005UGE: ## TL;DR Qubes OS R3.1 works in CSM mode but the graphics becomes unusable after suspending, switching to another vty or changing any graphics option. Some workarounds where required for Grub and the NVMe SSD. Qubes OS R3.2 can not be installed directly (neither in native UEFI nor CSM). When doing an in-place upgrade from R3.1 to R3.2, only the 4.1 kernel boots and can be used to upgrade to 4.8 which fixes the graphics issues. I have been testing with Qubes OS R3.2 for one month and am really happy with it. Works for me :) Awesome work! ## Long version The graphics problems I experienced where already described here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/qubes-users/QOINoTl1aXc/2dXut2SrBAAJ ### Qubes OS R3.1 installation Installer finished but after the reboot Grub is not able to find its /boot. Same as the initial post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Qubes/comments/4vqb3y/grub_fails_to_boot `ls` only shows: (hd0) So, no partitions. Possible fix: Boot into rescue mode of the installer and install /boot and Grub onto a USB thumb drive. I used the handy anti-evil-maid-install script for this task which only needed to be slightly modified (attached). Not needed when using Grub from R3.2. ### Qubes OS R3.2 installation The platform resets when booting Linux 4.4.31 from R3.2 with CSM as described in https://www.reddit.com/r/Qubes/comments/4vqb3y/grub_fails_to_boot/ and https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/mOlHA2KhzLE When debugging is enabled, you can see that Xen boots just fine and one of the last entries is that Xen starts dom0 * i915.enable_rc6=0 did not help (suggested here https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/thinkpad-troubleshooting/#thinkpads-with-intel-hd-3 000-graphics) * intel_pstate=disable did not help (suggested here: http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Fedora_24_on_a_ThinkPad_X1_Yoga#Success _Chart_-_Out_of_the_box_experience) ### UEFI boot UEFI mode is not usable as Grub refuses to boot any menu option for some reason for every version of Qubes OS I have tested. I disabled secure boot. The following error message is shown: /EndEntire file path: //File/(\EFI\BOOT)/File(xen.efi)/EndEntire Xen 4.6.1 (c/s) EFI loader Failed to boot both default and fallback entries. I already tried the things mentioned here: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/uefi-troubleshooting/ as suggested in https://groups.google.com/d/msg/qubes-users/vPDD4rgNXx4/5faeFS-RBgAJ This does not help. ### Kernel update 4.1.24 works with graphics problems 4.4.31 does not boot (platform resets when kernel is loaded, no kernel messages) following https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/qubes-users/m8sWoyV58_E/HYdReRIYBAAJ 4.8.11-100.vanilla.knurd.fc23 boots but hangs after the root filesystem has been mounted (FDE pw entered). A _ keeps appearing for like .5 seconds all 4 seconds. 4.8.12-12 Works without issues. `qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable kernel` and `dnf upgrade kernel` worked! ### Screen brightness By default the screen brightness can not be controlled by xfce and is at maximum. There is a workaround for this: dom0# qubes-dom0-update bc inotify-tools And then run https://github.com/rickybrent/x1yoga-scripts/blob/master/x1yoga-backlight-mon.sh in dom0. To start the script automatically at boot you can use "Sessions and Startup" from xfce or other means. ### Touch screen Works without issues in the default configuration. See sys-usb for more details. ### AEM I only got AEM working without owner nor SRK password set. As soon as I set any one of the passwords (even after full TPM clear), the password is being asked for at boot. But the password is not accepted (error: "Key not found in persistent storage"). When setting both passwords to well known, then it works with the exception that the secret message is not shown in plymouth but only on the text console (switched with ESC). I removed the plymouth packages from dracut again with `dnf remove '*plymouth*' && dracut -f` which solved it. I expect that this problem was caused by the in place upgrade from R3.1 to R3.2 or the fact that I removed the plymouth packages previously for debugging and later reinstalled them on R3.2. TXT seems to not work. If enabled in the UEFI setup, the platform resets after grub. The last message shown is that 6th_gen_i5_i7_SINIT_71.BIN has been loaded. I updated the AEM config in /etc to use SRTM for now. I will retry with a clean install when possible but for now it works with the mentioned limitations. ### Grub Grub is horribly slow in default config on this machine. You can read the few text lines as they start appearing on the screen and are only able to make selections when it is done. Set `GRUB_TERMINAL=console` in `/etc/default/grub` and regen grub.cfg to workaround this. ### sys-usb Required the
