I run Ubora Linux, no problems.

Running Fedora 38, both Kernels 6.2 and 6.3 detected everything (including Wi-Fi though sometimes it didn't for whatever reason). Everything works out of the box.

No, never looked into it to be honest, forgot about that one. I think last time I tried to use fingerprint reader on my GTr7 it restarted
