Omarchy and Hyprland compatibility
- Lenovo sold it with Linux preinstalled (Fedora Linux / Ubuntu Linux LTS / Ubuntu Linux with Data Science Preload / Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.6 (certified only))
- Some configurations have an NVIDIA dGPU (RTX 3070 Ti / RTX 3080 Ti / RTX A1000). Omarchy installs nvidia-open and has a hybrid GPU switch; the Hyprland wiki lists monitors on the NVIDIA GPU and suspend/resume as known issues
- Face login (IR camera) is not part of Omarchy’s setup (fingerprint and FIDO2 keys are)
- Fingerprint reader: Omarchy’s menu sets it up for sudo and the lock screen (if libfprint supports the sensor)
- Wi-Fi chip: Intel (varies by configuration)
