    That’s exactly mz setup, as I need to leave my work laptop unauthorized in a shared space for prolonged periods.

    Can’t set up secure boot though because even fckin lenovo doesn’t provide the needed bios options for Linux nowadays -.-

      Which bios options do you need for that? Not enough to enter secure boot setup mode (restore factory keys) and enroll your keys?

        Maybe I am not informed enough, i don’t exactly know if i missed something , but i did what i would do under microslop, I reset to factory keys I enable secure boot in user mode and I boot.

        When checking in the KDE security info, secure boot isn’t enabled.

        I asked lenovo support on how to do it (along with how to do an bios update under Debian) and the just replied there is no support for Linux. For either of those for my model and disabled the option to get support from a real human for my serial number.

        Maybe I would have needed to “enroll my keys”, I did not do that, mainly because I didn’t knew I needed to, and still dont know where to get my keys from and how to enroll them. Maybe you could enlighten me.

        Side rant: That I had to enter my full details including age and address and my serial number to even be able to get a support ticket is unbelievable imho

        My device isn’t included in the fwupd.
