I had one of those, but the trackpad occasionally wouldn't work until I rebooted several times (I was using fedora). Did you run into any similar issue?
Had that happen after BIOS updates. Sending it to sleep and waking it up once always fixed it for me.
Not with the trackpad, but other issues yeah. For some reason, this model seems to be really finicky depending on the distro you use.
I had weird random issues with most distros I've tried on it over the years.
The two distros that have worked with almost no issues are Manjaro, and Mint Debian Edition, which is what I currently run on it.
The most frequent I had with it were random lockups when bringing it out of sleep mode.
