hwinfo from Mint 19

I hate to say this, after resolving bug #1122554, there are still issues with
the Fitlet2 and LEAP 15.0.  It now boots OK, but...

1. When the monitor has been switched off overnight (or maybe over a shorter
period of time - I'm not sure yet), the system behaves erratically.  I can't
launch applications, and I get file protection errors (which could be the
reason I can't launch applications).  The display typically goes black not long
after that.

2. WiFi isn't working.  The kernel seems happy with it, but wicked can't
initialize the interface.  Perhaps I need a new version from 4.20.2's
kernel-firmware package?  Here are some relevant log records:

Compulab, the makers of the Fitlet2, recommend Linux Mint 19, so I installed
it, and it seems to work fine.  So, I started looking for differences.  From
bug #1122554, we know that openSUSE has trouble recognizing the GPU, due to
BIOS insufficiency, but I also noticed that openSUSE has trouble with the host
bridge, and Mint 19 is using an older version of firmware for the GPU.  I don't
know, however, which of these is a likely culprit.

I'll attach hwinfo, lspci, and modinfo information from both distributions to
see if you can help.
