That indeed solved the problem, and I was thrilled to see that Pop!_OS installed a newer version of the Nvidia driver (410.57) than most other Ubuntu-based distributions.

But most importantly, you can choose to install Nvidia's proprietary driver during the install process - instead of the sub-par open source Nouveau driver which ships in most distros by default. For starters, you can switch between integrated Intel graphics and dedicated Nvidia graphics with a single click. The reason? Pop!_OS creators System76 also specialize in building custom Linux PCs and have tweaked their Linux distro with some much-needed improvements on the graphics side of the fence. When I was tweeting about my experience, the Linux community (specifically the Twitter account) suggested I give Pop!_OS a try. Pop!_OS 18.10 on the ThinkPad X1 Extreme Jason Evangelho The installer couldn't even boot into Gnome's graphical interface, and it appeared the system was freezing here too. No log output, just a locked up machine.Īfter that I decided to give Fedora 29 a spin, but the experience was short-lived. The moment I clicked enter, the same thing happened. So I forced a shutdown and booted up the OS again, this time executing the reboot command in a terminal, as root, and observing the kernel log in a separate window. The second I hit that reboot button the entire system froze. Until the installer prompted me to reboot.
Everything appeared to be detected and functioning as expected.
The Ubuntu 18.10 installation went smoothly. At any rate, the hybrid graphics on display here definitely threw Ubuntu 18.10 for a loop. I think most users who buy an X1 Extreme will install their Linux distro of choice themselves. It's certified if it ships with Ubuntu pre-installed, which is available in certain regions. Ubuntu creators Canonical have awarded this laptop with certified status but there's a slight catch.
