I typically tell people, "Everything but the fingerprint reader". On my X1C the only tiny battle I had to fight was for S3 suspend. I'm not even going to bother with the fingerprint reader.

Red hat is apparently paying for some work on this: https://blogs.gnome.org/uraeus/2019/06/24/on-the-road-to-fed...

So I guess it is going to land in fedora first and then make its way to other distros.

That said, under windows the fingerprint reader is frustratingly bad (lots and lotsof false negatives and slow). How can they be almost perfect on phones but that awful on laptops?

My Macbook Pro's reader has been great. But yeah, I've had readers on my PCs for the past 10 years, and every one of them has been just a notch above terrible.
