Installation

In the UEFI setup, turn off "OS-Optimized defaults" and "Secure Boot".

Accessibility

This article or section needs expansion.

Reason: This section needs to be more descriptive (e.g. what key(s) to access the UEFI, can switching to text mode be done blindly and if so how, etc...). (Discuss in Talk:Lenovo Thinkpad P17 (Gen 2))

There is an option to change the UEFI from GUI mode to text mode, which may be useful.

Audio

Install ALSA firmware (i.e. sof-firmware) to support the audio card.

Video

The nouveau kernel module is used by default, but is unusable. Install the proprietary NVIDIA driver. See NVIDIA Optimus for setup details. Note that the video output ports are hardwired to the NVIDIA GPU.

WiFi

If the Intel AX210 Wi-Fi card is slow, write options iwlwifi 11n_disable=8 power_save=0 to /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf.
