Lenovo Thinkpad T14s Gen 2 will not charge after update
Windows Update ran this morning and updated a few Lenovo system updates, after which my laptop can now no longer charge. Windows reports it as 0% while the Bios reports it as 7% - has anyone else updated and ran into this? On the below GitHub page, looks to be a known issue but wondered if anyone else has managed a workaround? https://github.com/fwupd/firmware-lenovo/issues/329

Linux on the laptop works so damn well that it’s boring
ya that service has been very helpful and tracking issues is great, but there can still be issues when installing. For example, I am dealing with a bug found in this list of issues: https://github.com/fwupd/firmware-lenovo/issues on one of my laptops.

ThinkPad Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station - Crashes laptop - Lenovo ignoring the issue
Has anyone had any success getting the ThinkPad Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station to work reliably on Linux? I'm running Pop-OS! and as per https://github.com/fwupd/firmware-lenovo/issues/191 it hard crashes (locks) the machine on boot and Lenovo have seemingly abandoned the issue for Linux users, despite the cost of this thing.

fwupd don't want to update my Lenovo firmware!
Unfortunately a UEFI capsule firmware update actually uses the old version of the firmware to apply the new version. So if you've got a super-old existing version you might need to use Windows (sad face) or a bootable CD to update to a slightly newer version, and from there fwupd can work. Lenovo are supposed to include a "old bios must be newer than X" in the firmware metadata, and so if you can file a bug in https://github.com/fwupd/firmware-lenovo/issues with your old BIOS version included, I can make sure it doesn't happen to anyone else. Sorry!

Ubuntu Locks Up w/ ThinkPad Universal TB4 Dock
I have the same issue, as do others (see https://github.com/fwupd/firmware-lenovo/issues/191). Seems Lenovo just don't bother with Linux these days, given it's been 8 months since this was reported.

Linux as only Os
It does seem that updating firmware might be the only thing to worry about. Do you use the program called fwupd, a.k.a. fwupdmgr? That program works well when it actually works. I have had many problems with it. (See here for problems it has on ThinkPads.) I suggest that you try it (if you have not already) and see whether it works for you. Or, if Pop_OS has some sort of GUI front-end for fwupd (does it?) then try that.

Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Ventoy is an open-source tool to create a bootable USB drive for ISO/WIM/IMG/VHD(x)/EFI files. Using Ventoy, we can create live USB for multiple distros in one flash disk. This is a revolutionary feature compared to other tools, e.g., Etcher, Rufus, etc, that can only create one live USB at a time. This tool is so important. Don't call yourself a distro hopper if you don't know this tool.

I'm thinking you mean Ventoy? They say they can load vhd and img files, though I've only tried ISO's myself.

I faced it too. There is a PR on the ventoy GitHub repository that fixes Proxmox boot.

How to Boot ISO Files from GRUB2 Boot Loader
> While this works, I find this method a bit tedious to use, at least compared to Ventoy [0].
I find ventoy more tedious, because you can't use it on your hard drive with a sane partitioning scheme.
The only reason is because of how the ventoy detection hardcode the partition boundaries in its checks, and it means Ventoy can only run with the partitions set in a way that may lead to alignment issues like write-amplification: I've detailed that in https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/issues/1342
Ideally I'd have a 10G partition after the EFI (or it could even be the EFI itself) with a few ISOs for rescue purposes + a UEFI entry to avoid having to use a bootable USB, but that's not possible with Ventoy unless I accept Ventoy choices of partition boundaries:

Booting from a bootable USB flash stick?
I downloaded and made a bootable USB Ventoy (https://www.ventoy.net) with its Windows GUI app in my updated 64-bit W10 Pro PC. However, I couldn't seem to get VirtualBox v7.0.12 to boot it. I read VirtualBox can boot from bootable USB flash sticks so it should work. Am I missing something?

Attempt Q4OS install on Netbook, BUT "unable to install grub in /dev/sda"...solutions?
So, yes. The installer will need to install grub to that first partition. You can install ventoy to a usb drive, put a windows iso there and your q4os iso. In case you mess up big time, you can reinstall windows.
