The HCL says this laptop is certified however it is not on the official certification list

Remarks

  • Wi-Fi stops working after waking from suspend. I have to restart sys-net to get it working again
  • I’ve encountered this issue about the laptop freezing every so often. Initially I thought it was related to external displays as it seem to happen shortly after plugging in an external display but it ended up happening even when just using the laptop on its own. The workaround about pkill xfwm4 stated in the OP seems to work and the system continues working after that without problems.
  • I’ve found the laptop generally buggy, or at least more buggy than I would like to see with certified hardware. For instance this morning after plugging in an external display my cursor wasn’t able to click on anything in the application that I dragged onto it, instead it clicked on the primary display.

Aside from that everything works. I am hoping it works just as well after updating to R4.3

Found another weird bug: I’m using 2 additional monitors, one HDMI and one USB-C. On wake from suspend, the USB-C monitor stops working (Qubes doesn’t pick it up anymore) but when I suspend the laptop again and once again wake, it comes back. Very strange.

I know this issue (not NitroPad V54 related). When you work with different screen resolutions you need to reboot the qube to detect the correct screen size. (Best practice: Working with different screen resolution (FHD and 4K))
