ThinkPads are usually pretty good with Linux.
For the T580, there have been reports of sucess on the internet:
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/9vznos/lenovo_t580_is_a_solid_laptop_for_running_linux/
And, if any change, it's likely to be better with a more recent version of Ubuntu.
If you haven't seen this already, might be useful:
