They do have ThinkPads that are certified to work with Linux, ship with linux, and have Nivida Graphics The W541 is not one of those models... Lenovo has one of the best websites for looking up their models, and configuration. I am not aware of any other vendor that has anything like it. Pick a model, then filter by OS. The T15 as an example has plenty of models with Linux Support https://psref.lenovo.com/ https://psref.lenovo.com/
