So i have gotten a t490 just recently, and ive installed fedora on it, gnome power profiles daemon said it was “on my lap” and wouldn’t let me change the power profiles even when on a desk.

Getting graphics artifacting on my 7840HS laptop, even after a motherboard replacement. Is it a driver thing?
I’ve installed Pop!OS after getting my Lenovo Ideapad Pro 5 back from the warranty repair.

I'm an idiot (arm)
EDIT: Putting this at the top because not everyone is seeing what I actually need. I can unpack the rar archive just fine. What I can’t do (on arm) is add to/update the files in the rar archive. I have unrar already installed. What I can’t install is the rar package to create/update rar archives....
