Was it a HP by any chance. I got a Zbook and its the first laptop in more than a decade i can't get to work with linux. Starting 20 or so docker containers with docker compose kills something and makes it freeze / lock up.

I didn't think it was hard not to be compatible i suppose HP tried their best.

Yeap, HP Pavillion. Unfortunaly, I can't justify buying another laptop just to use Linux when everything works great on Windows.

Pavillon no-good. Elitebook better.

Booted one minimal Debian-derivative (without SystemD!1!!) from USB-keychain into RAM 124 days ago. Still running, no reboots, but no suspends/resume either. Though it's ancient. But all Intel-components, and working flawlessly with LTS-kernels.
