## Display

Factory display calibration is poor. Check the panel model:

    $ edid-decode < /sys/class/drm/card0-eDP-1/edid | grep Alphanumeric

If it is NV156FHM-N61, try the ICC profiles at [1].

The path to the backlight is non-standard and causes tools like xorg-xbacklight to not work. To fix this issue, you have to setup Intel driver and add Backlight option to respective X-Org configuration file:

    /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-backlight.conf

    Section "Device"
            Identifier "Card0"
            Driver     "intel"
            Option     "Backlight"  "intel_backlight"
            BusID      "PCI:0:2:0"
    EndSection

## Touchpad troubles

You may face a problem when the kernel sees 2 touchpad devices if you have multiple touchpad devices displayed in libinput list-devices Try to add i8042.noaux kernel param

## TPM issues

BIOS used in this model does not allow enabling SHA256 PCR bank, all measurements are done to SHA1 PCR bank only.
