Ubuntu kernel packages for the slim 7x with:

  1. Support for the slim 7x's embedded controller. This will ensure that keyboard backlighting is disabled and the power LED starts pulsing on suspend. The original code is by Maya Matuszczyk. For suspend to work properly though, mem_sleep_default=s2idle still needs to be added to the linux kernel command line in /etc/default/grub.

  2. Support for the slim 7x's realtime clock. This gets the realtime clock working (i.e. time is not lost on powerdown). Original patch by Jonathan Marek.

  3. Support for hardware accelerated video decoding. This will offload h264 decoding. For this to work you need to copy qcom/vpu/vpu30_p4.mbn from a Windows installation. The one on linux-firmware will only work with CRDs. You can test this with ffplay -codec:v h264_v4l2m2m video.mp4 Note that this patch is not slim 7x specific but will work on all x1e laptops. Original work was done by Dikshita Agarwal and Stephan Gerhold.
