Remarks

I installed R4.3-rc4 and had no issues, except for that i had to wipe the Windows installation that was on the SSD before because otherwise Anaconda would crash with Active Device.
Also the notebook speakers are not detected, but audio output is going through the 3,5mm speaker plug and HDMI.

Ah i also had to to the pci strict reset on sys-net, the configuration stopped because of this at/after sys-firewall, after booting and doing the configuration in the sys-net Devices tab everything works, i have wifi :slight_smile:

Also HDMI with external monitor works straight out the box, even i couldnt disable the nvidia gpu in the bios!

I dont know how to edit, i just want to update, i am very happy to have made the choice to buy this notebook.
Its extremely fast, and today i tested the thunderbolt to display port monitor, and it works, out of the box!
I can only recommend this, dont put 4 figures out for a notebook, get a thinkpad t15p1 gen2 with a geforce gtx 1650 and intel UHD graphics and you wont have any headache!
I paid 719€ for it, and it is like new!
U even dont have to edit settings because of the nvidia!
Also it supports nice security options like ram encryption from the bios!
