Reason: The hardware table needs IDs added. A function keys section is missing. (Discuss in Talk:Lenovo ThinkPad T495)
Warning: Currently this device does not work well under Linux. Please see known issues for unresolved AMDGPU drm bugs in the LTS 5.4.x kernel and more recent kernels such as 5.12.x.

Fingerprint Sensor

The fingerprint sensor works with some recent firmware and software updates.

  1. Use fwupd to install the latest firmware for "Synaptics Prometheus Fingerprint Reader". The update might have to be done manually as the released firmware is in testing; or you could enable the testing remote in fwupd to allow automated upgrade. The relevant firmwares are Prometheus Fingerprint Reader and Prometheus Fingerprint Reader Configuration.
  2. fprintd ≥ 1.90.1 and libfprint ≥ 1.90.1 are required. Alternatively, use the latest Git master through fprintd-libfprint2AUR and libfprint-gitAUR.

fprint has more details on how to setup the fingerprint, for PAM-based authentication for example.

Battery and power management

TLP prevents plugged in USB devices from working when running on battery. This can be fixed by blacklisting power management of the USB3.1 PCI device. Found via lspci. 05:00.3 and 05:00.4

$ lspci
05:00.3 USB controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Raven USB 3.1
05:00.4 USB controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Raven USB 3.1
$ echo 'RUNTIME_PM_BLACKLIST="05:00.3 05:00.4"' | sudo tee /etc/tlp.d/01-usb.conf
RUNTIME_PM_BLACKLIST="05:00.3 05:00.4"

Ethernet connection

Some models might have issues in noticing ethernet's link state changes (cable connect/disconnect events) when running on battery.

The issue can be noticed by trying to connect the ethernet cable while the computer is running on battery: if there is no connection until you connect the power cable you are affected.

To fix the issue one can try blacklisting the r8169 module by appending the following line to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf:

blacklist r8169

Install then the r8168 package (or r8168-lts if running the linux-lts, or r8168-dkmsAUR for other kernels).

Reboot and the problem should be gone.

Known Issues

The following issues are commonly seen even with recent kernels such as 5.9.3:
