Hardware | PCI/USB ID | Working?
--- | --- | ---
Touchpad |  | Yes
Touchscreen |  | Yes
Keyboard |  | Yes
Video |  | Yes
Webcam |  | Untested
Bluetooth |  | Untested
Audio |  | Yes
Wireless |  | Yes
Sensors |  | Yes

## Installation

All you need is to disable Secure Boot and install Arch Linux as usual, Legacy install is also possible

## Video

The screen is very PWMed, so you might need to fix it. Also TearFree video works great

## Sensors

To work with sensors you need iio-sensor-proxy. thinkpad-yoga-scripts-gitAUR also provides service for ambient light sensor. With iio-sensor-proxy while turning into tablet mode touchpad and keyboard are automatically disabled on KDE Plasma 5.13.3.

## Power management

Battery functions like charging thresholds can be controlled using the script tpacpi-bat together with the kernel module acpi_call. The TLP power saving tool supports using acpi_call as backend for setting the thresholds as well.

After installing iio-sensor-proxy the device is immediately waking after suspending. The soloution is to disable XHC in wake events

    # echo XHC > /proc/acpi/wakeup
