I was going to say Lenovo X2xx or T4xx but the numeric keypad rules them out. I'm surprised you had issues with a Lenovo though, what was it?
Ideapad 330S
I knew that the T-series was probably a better bet but there was a good deal on the Ideapad and I fell for it...
Haven't tried Linux on it in the last year, maybe worth a re-run.
Yes, it may well be that config/drivers have caught up.
Maybe a T5xx series would be good as having the same sort of ancestry as the ones I've always found to be good.
I'll take a look, thanks.
Does "good" mean all the essentials work, or does it extend to non-essentials (eg webcam, fingerprint reader, etc)?
I have to admit I've not even tried the webcam or fingerprint reader on my T470, I've really no need for them. The SD card reader works fine and everything I've plugged into the USB so far has worked.
