Installation

Apply the additional lines below to the make.conf file of Portage.

Note
To get up-to-date CPU_FLAGS_X86, discover the flags for your CPU with cpuid2cpuflags!
FILE /etc/portage/make.conf
# for i7-7600U
CPU_FLAGS_X86="aes avx avx2 fma3 mmx mmxext pclmul popcnt sse sse2 sse3 sse4_1 sse4_2 ssse3"

# for i5-7300U
CPU_FLAGS_X86="aes avx avx2 f16c fma3 mmx mmxext pclmul popcnt sse sse2 sse3 sse4_1 sse4_2 ssse3"

INPUT_DEVICES="libinput wacom"
VIDEO_CARDS="intel i965"
GRUB_PLATFORMS="efi-64"

Then you should update the world to recompile all installed packages with the new flags.

root #emerge --ask --changed-use --deep @world

Firmware

Install the package sys-kernel/linux-firmware which contains the wifi device driver.

root #emerge --ask sys-kernel/linux-firmware

Emerge

Fingerprint reader is recognized by the following library.

root #emerge --ask sys-auth/libfprint

Configuration

(Explain any additional configuration or special customization for this hardware platform. Could be anything from BIOS settings to assigning proper media key functionality.)

Finger/Pen Input

For X11 to work with finger/pen input, pull in x11-drivers/xf86-input-wacom by inserting wacom argument into the indicated variable in the file shown below and run the following command for the configuration to emerge.

FILE /etc/portage/make.conf
INPUT_DEVICES="... wacom"
root #emerge --ask --deep --newuse @world

Trackpoint scrolling

Add the following Xorg configuration file so that the driver is selected for the devices we want.

FILE /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-libinput.conf
Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "libinput pointer catchall"
        MatchIsPointer "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "libinput"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "libinput touchpad catchall"
        MatchIsTouchpad "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "libinput"
EndSection

After a reboot/xorg-server restart, trackpoint scrolling should work.

Hotkeys

Most of the hotkeys are available and can be configured by an X hotkey daemon like sxhkd.

Note
The Audio example functions only work if using PulseAudio.

Updates

fwupd

Firmware of the X1 Yoga 2nd can be updated with fwupd: https://fwupd.org/lvfs/device/9ca89fa5-ce05-47ac-bdf3-5b0b6f21d07a

You need to build fwupd with the uefi useflag (and boot with UEFI).

BIOS/UEFI

You can use fwupd to update the BIOS and other firmware. As an alternative, you can update the X1 Yoga BIOS/UEFI from Linux with an USB drive.

user $geteltorito -o image.bin downloaded.iso
  • Flash the raw image to USB drive, make sure it's the right device...
root #dd if=image.bin of=/dev/sdx
  • Boot from the USB drive and install the update

Thunderbolt Firmware

You can update the Lenovo Thunderbolt Firmware right from Linux very easily!

View the current firmware version:

root #cat /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_version
15.0

Upload the update:

root #dd if=/tmp/Thunderbolt/TBT.bin of=/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_non_active0/nvmem
496+0 records in
496+0 records out
253952 bytes (254 kB, 248 KiB) copied, 0.00235085 s, 108 MB/s

Trigger the update:

root #echo 1 > /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_authenticate


The screen may flicker and hang, just wait a bit (<20s). Now you should have a newer version!



root #cat /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_version
27.0







Thunderbolt Dock Firmware


From Linux, you can update the firmware of the USB-C Dock itself with Wine!
