Laptop COMPATIBILITY List.

[countdodo]

Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
Brand: ASUS
Model: ZenBook S UX391UA
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-8550U (8th Gen)
GPU: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics 620 (KBL GT2)
Gnome: 42.5 + Wayland

I used to have a lot of crashes, freezes and inability to leave black screen sleep mode with this laptop but finally have a stable machine.

1. upgrade the bios firmware to version 307: https://www.asus.com/supportonly/ux391ua/helpdesk_bios/. It solves the freeze issue plugging/unplugging the power supply.
   -> I read a lot of things (setting the nomodeset, etc) but the bios upgrade was the real answer.
2. update /etc/default/grub file adding i915.enable_dc=0 at variable GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT (and then sudo update-grub to apply the changes). It solves the crashes and sleep issue. (It seems to be a Intel 8th Gen CPU bug).
   -> Here again I read it was because of Wayland or Gnome extensions but the Intel issue seems to be legit in my case.

Now I can develop peacefully: VS Code, Intellj, Docker, Kubernetes, Node and all my other dev tools work fine.

Hope it helps.

1) Version Of Ubuntu: XUbuntu 22.04.3 LTS (kernel 5.15.0-91-generic)
2) Laptop Maker: Acer
3) Laptop Model: Swift 3 SF314-43 with AMD 5700U SoC / CPU

Known Issues:

The built-in fingerprint reader does not work. The built-in microphone does not work. When returning from suspend (not hibernate) the OS freezes occasionally and only a hard power off and reboot will revive it, loosing all open work.

Resolution to built-in microphone does not work: in order to get the builtin stereo mic working:

Sound Server PipeWire and Sound Server PulseAudio interfere with each other.

If they are both running (verify with command:

$ inxi -Aa

) then you can disable PipeWire with command:

$ systemctl --user mask --now pipewire.socket && systemctl --user stop pipewire.service

Then stereo recording works (only the left and right mic recording channels are switched.)

Graphics: Intel Raptor Lake-P [UHD Graphics]

Ubuntu 24.04

I've had this Lenovo Thinkpad for over a week. It came with Ubuntu 22.04 installed, which included some Lenovo specific settings packages and an OEM kernel. I decided to install Ubuntu 24.04. I've been using it for a week with 24.04, and all seems well with it.

So, yeah, it came with Ubuntu 22.04 to begin with (albeit with Lenovo specific changes and the OEM kernel), but I'm posting to say that the generic Ubuntu 24.04 works fine on it.
