[GTALUG] brands matter; Lenovo's brands

| Thanks but I wish it was that easy.  There is a lot going on in the Linux

| Hoping in the 6.6 kernel the fix will appear.

In my experience, the Lenovo fora are not very useful.  This thread is 
enormous so it might be productive.  (I don't think that I'll dip in.) But 
the Lenovo folks are unlikely to solve the problem.

It's best solved upstream (Ubuntu), or upstream of upstream (the Linus 
kernel).  Ubuntu typically is further behind its upstream than Fedora is.

The second message in that forum gets quite technical (not common for that 
forum) so that is promising.  But there are 17 pages of following messages 
and it was months ago, so I guess this is a hard nut to crack.

Consider looking at

It too is long.
