Model 20KH-006MMX (with NFC & HDR) notes for stuff I've done this far to get the machine to an usable state.

openSUSE Tumbleweed works ok and touchpad & trackpoint & hibernation works out-of-the-box (not the case with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS).

To test out hibernation just type (after this it will appear in the GNOME menus):

# systemctl hibernate

BIOS

import inspect
# Call a python function with a dict of arguments
# The dict can contain excess values. This function only picks the supported ones and if they exist in the passed arguments
def call_python_function(module, function_name, argument_dictionary):
    funcpointer = getattr(module, function_name)
    # Find what arguments the module's function takes
    argspec = inspect.getargspec(funcpointer)
    # Remove the self that is a python self-reference
    argspec.args.remove('self')
    # argspec.args is now an empty list if the func doesn't take any arguments
