Kubuntu 18.04 LTS works great on my HP Pavilion x360 m3-u001dx, except for bad sound quality, and it's not very touch screen friendly. Other than that, though, it works very well.
HP Pavilion x360 15-bk168cl, 2.4 GHz Core i3, 1TB HDD, 8GB RAM
OS's: Win 10 (800GB), Ubuntu Studio 18.10 (150GB), Q4OS Scorpion (50GB)
1)Version Of Ubuntu: Kubuntu Bionic Beaver 18.04 64

placed "nomodeset" in grub 2 for install.
WiFi card is hardblocked for some reason out of the box. Need to blacklist "ideapad_laptop" in /etc/modprobe.d/ (make file "blacklist-whateveryouwanttonameit.conf" and add "blacklist ideapad_laptop" as only entry in file; no quotes; reboot and wifi card is no longer hard blocked)
separetly install nvidia module to use nvidia card
No other issues at this point.

Hello seeker901!
Please use the default font color and properties unless you need to highlight or draw attention to a part of your post.
1)Version Of Ubuntu : Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS (Xenial Xerus) 32 bits
2)Laptop Maker : Apple
3)Laptop Model : Macbook 2,1 Late 2006
Installed from the Ubuntu ISO on DVD, standalone (disk erased, no macOS).
Tried in EFI mode (with an ESP partition and refind to boot Ubuntu in EFI mode), works in 'nomodeset' mode (could not get the Intel graphics driver to work), so slower.
Works fine in BIOS emulation mode : no EFI partition (ESP), but the BIOS grub partition (this is the standard installation of Ubuntu).
To boot consistently in graphics mode, GFX must be in text mode. Otherwise, boot will fail every other start (crash on the first boot, boots ok in failure mode the second boot, etc.).
Just add the next line to /etc/default/grub and run sudo update-grub :
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text
Otherwise everything seems fine (wifi, trackpad, keyboard, etc).

No official Ubuntu 18.04 ISO in 32 bits.
First installed Ubuntu 16.04.5 32 bits from DVD, standalone (disk erased, no macOS).
Standard installation (BIOS emulation).
To boot consistently in graphics mode, GFX must be in text mode. Otherwise, boot will fail every other start (crash on the first boot, boots ok in failure mode the second boot, etc.).
Just add the next line to /etc/default/grub and run sudo update-grub :
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text
Then upgraded to 18.04 (thus 32 bits).
Crash on boot, Wayland must be disabled in GDM. Simply uncomment the line WaylandEnable=false in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf.
Everything seems fine afterwords : wifi, trackpad, keyboard (even special keys for screen brightness and volume control work), etc.

3)Laptop Model : Macbook Aluminum Unibody (Macbook 5,1 Late 2008)
Installed from the Ubuntu ISO on a USB key, standalone (disk erased, no macOS). Didn't need refind/refit.
No issue, so far everything OK (wifi, graphics, trackpad, keyboard, sleep mode, sound, keyboard's screen brightness & sound controls, ...)
