Albert, good morning!

There is a Debian wiki about ThinkPad computers... But, the X240S isn't listed. You can check here: https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Thinkpad
There is a mailing list about ThinkPad too... You can check here: http://mailman.linux-thinkpad.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-thinkpad that can be better for you.

If anyone can help our friend with this specific model, that would be great! :)

Best,
Yuri Musachio Montezuma da Cruz
