Hello everyone. I recently bought a ThinkPad T14 Gen 2i. It originally came with Windows 10, which I used intermittently. Then I switched to Fedora 44 (KDE Plasma) and noticed a problem with the Thunderbolt and Type-C charging ports.
Both ports don’t respond to a flash drive, phone, or any other device. They don’t respond at all. Incidentally, both ports respond to charging (they charge correctly).
I tried to resolve this issue with Claude, but he didn’t offer any helpful advice and simply said, “Go to service—it’s not a software issue, it’s a hardware issue.” Even though everything worked fine on Windows before. If anyone has encountered similar issues before, please share your solutions. I’d be grateful.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Right after plugging in those unresponsive devices, please send the output of
journalctl -k -e
and
lsusb

From this output, I would say “Upgrade your BIOS” and try again
