November 2021 - I purchased the Lenovo 14p from this Slickdeal: https://slickdeals.net/f/15380674-thinkbook-14p-g2-14-2-2k-ips-ryzen-7-5800h-16gb-ddr4-512gb-pcie-ssd-win10-pro-851-95-f-s
Kubuntu ran fine out of the box except for:
- WiFi
- fingerprint reader
I tried Fedora and Arch installers but none supported the WiFi card. I also tried installing with a separate adapter and then updating to the latest 5.15 kernel, but it still did not support the card.
I was able to get the WiFi card working following this post: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1336379/network-driver-for-realtek-8852-20-10 by installing the driver from https://github.com/lwfinger/rtw89.
I did a probe for linux-hardware: https://linux-hardware.org/?probe=8b5b1397b4
The fingerprint reader remains nonoperational. Would be a fun project to try to get it working. Maybe someday…
