This are a collection of fixes and tweaks I used to get Xubuntu 18.04 LTS working on a lenovo thinkpad X380 yoga laptop.

• Bios:

  • First UPDATE IT, since some old bioses may cause bricking when settings are changed. I used 1.22 and it was fine, but it's no garuntee for others.
    • you can use linux or the preinstalled windows to update the bios http://positon.org/lenovo-thinkpad-bios-update-with-linux-and-usb
  • put into legacy mode (not UEFI) before install, to allow undervolting (to save power and heat)
    • 'Security -> Secure Boot - Set to "Disabled"'
  • (optional) turn off hyperthreading if you want to save more power

• (optional) find the settings for cpu power management and switch to power saving or balanced mode on battery (if not already)

i3 Window Manager Tips and Tricks

...to assign applications to a specific workspace/layout.

i3wm makes it easy to assign applications to workspaces and save and restore layouts - which is e.g. useful for auto-starting always needed software. To make these assignments, you need specific window properties so that you can tell i3 to assign [class="Your-app"] → 1 (in this example, Your-app will be assigned to workspace 1).

In many cases this just works. However, there are also many popular programs that do not initially set the correct window class or other properties on startup, which can be frustrating. This cheat sheet aims to show the problems and possible resolutions (or worse: workarounds) for more or less problematic applications.
