Ubuntu on a Thinkpad X1 Tablet

Linux is known for its ability to run on just about any hardware so I’ve installed it on a tablet. The Lenovo Thinkpad X1 is a premium piece of kit that runs Windows 10 out of the box but like most other Thinkpad, it has pretty good Linux support as well. Coupled with the optional keyboard, this setup is proving to be a nice portable computer that has enough power to handle my basic day to day tasks. My unit has an Intel m7 processor, 8 gb of RAM and 256 gb of SSD storage. I’m running the latest Ubuntu 18.04 with the lightweight i3 window manager. Very nice ...

Have you run into any issues with 18.04 and the X1 Tablet? Not a lot on the interwebs yet.
