I’ve added my (T14s LCD touch) dmidecode -t system -u output as per Lars’s entry.
Let me know if you need more/different output.

After a lengthy installation I get the error “Something went wrong”. The system is installed in two partitions, ext4 and fat32 with the boot and esp flags, but this system is simply not visible in uefi. Asus vivobook s15
Curious regarding Snapdragon X Plus X1P 42 100 Processor 3.4GHz vs X Elite . Some variants of the Asus vivobook s15 use this CPU. I assume it’s pretty similar. Has anyone tried installing this preview version against it ??
Do we need to collect / create a new device tree for this variant ??
Is there a way to volunteer to help with that ??
Perhaps using Snapdragon X Plus X1P 42 100 Processor 3.4GHz vs X Elite ??
I booted the image to grub successfully on the 2024 Dev Kit, but after choosing Try or Install Ubuntu the system quickly became unresponsive and the lights on my peripherals (e.g., mouse) turned off.
Try passing the device tree explicitly via the grub devicetree command. The dtbs should all be on the install media in /casper/dtbs.

Thanks! After loading the device tree and booting, the USB drive with the install media started blinking (progress, yay!), but the lights on other peripherals quickly turned off again, there was no display output, and the USB drive with the install media blinks continuously forever.
i have dell inspiron 14 Plus 7441
CPU: Snapdragon(R) X Plus - X1P64100

Has anyone successfully run this image on an Asus Vivobook S15?
Yes, see Comment #17 : Bug #2084674 : Bugs : ubuntu-concept
Do you have an X1E or X1P model? I think we might be lacking a few things for the X1P model to work properly. If it is an X1E you could also try an older iso from Index of /~platform/images/ubuntu-concept, it is not unthinkable that something regressed since the last successful installation.
X1E. At the end of the installation the error “something went wrong” appears. Ext4 and fat32 partitions appear on the disk, but the ubuntu bootloader does not appear in uefi.
Oh so not a kernel issue at all then. Your installer media should have a new ext4 partition with logs on them, do you think you can create a bug at Bugs : ubuntu-concept and attach your logs. From what you write it sounds like there might be an issue with grub but without log it is hard to tell what exactly is going wrong.
I just got a T14s that I am trying to set up. The Ubuntu installer says that I need to disable bitlocker, but Windows says that there is no bitlocker activated. What do I do? I am not supposed to remove the Windows, correct?
In case this is important: I initialised the Windows without a Microsoft account.
Thank you for your help!
This is an answer from @ookhoi, but he is rate limited because he is considered wet behind his ears 
Here we go:
I also have a T14s and also started Windows with an offline non-Microsoft account. I only used Windows to update the firmware with the Lenovo tool, as Lenovo does not provide a bootable image yet.
I did nothing to disable or enable bitlocker. Did (or can) you try to run the Ubuntu firmware extractor?
Once you have extracted the firmware, you can remove Windows if you do not intend to use Windows. You do not need the extracted firmware. I’m running without, waiting for when the firmware comes available in a natural way. Some things will not work. My biggest issue at the moment is lack of thermal throttling, which sometimes causes the T14s to lock up during kernel compile. Not sure if thermal throttling is available with the extracted firmware though.
I installed Ubuntu on an usb-c drive and from there installed NixOS on the nvme drive, wiping Windows in the process.
[@glathe adding something]
Thermal throttling is not yet available. Trying to go afterburner with full compile load needs good airflow, hard, plain surface should do. No paper or plaid or books. I wouldn’t kill windows completely, better go dual-boot with a resized Windows partition. This is the complicated approach, though.

The bitlocker problem was resolved by first activating bitlocker on windows and then disabling it again. I “sucessfully” installed Ubuntu, but now I have a new problem:
After selecting Ubuntu in the grub menu, the screen turns off and nothing happens. It does not return to Grub, although I can press Ctrl+Alt+Del to reboot. The device is plugged into power and I also tried keeping a usb-stick plugged in as someone here mentioned that made a difference.
Only non-default thing I did during setup is using FDE. Is that a problem?
About full disk encryption, I got the same problem on my Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x, I pointed it out in this comment: Comment #127 : Bug #2084191 : Bugs : ubuntu-concept
I’m limited to 2 links, read my next post to get the 2 commits to revert for the T14s.

Following my previous comment:
You might want to try to revert this ~ubuntu-concept/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/oracular - [no description] and ~ubuntu-concept/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/oracular - [no description]
Then do make dtbs and try to replace your dtbs in /boot/ by the new one.
Reporting from Asus Vivobook S15 x1e-78-100 variant.
Installation went well, immediately did apt dist-upgrade on installed system - now running: Linux 6.12.0-17-qcom-x1e #17-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Nov 29 02:03:37 UTC 2024
I was struggling with qcom-firmware-extract as the MS Win ntfs partition is nvme0n1p14 here.
Suggestion: Change line 53 in qcom-firmware-extract to:
part=$(lsblk -l -o NAME,FSTYPE | grep -E -m 1 "(^nvme[0-9]n[0-9]p[0-9]{1,2}[[:space:]]ntfs$)" | cut -d" " -f1)
So far so good, I’m going to use the system as my daily driver from now.
