2. Fix missing wireless connection

When Install ubuntu 16.04 LTS at Legion Y520, OS can't detect wifi.
To fix this, just command
$ sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/ideapad.conf <<< "blacklist ideapad_laptop"
and then reboot.
Before do that, "rfkill list" shows Wireless LAN hard blocked: Yes.
But after rebooting, no more hard block and no more problem with wifi.
That's all. Missing Wifi is fixed with just two commands.
3. Install nvidia driver (Update on 2018/ 4/ 17. Thanks to Leonardo Gonzales for comment.)
After connect internet (wifi or with ethernet wire), type following command
$ software-properties-gtk --open-tab=4
And select nvidia driver as follow.
This is also solution for freezing when shutdown/reboot/restart ubuntu 16.04.4.
When you try to shutdown ubuntu on cui-mode (ctrl+alt+f1), if you see message including "nouveau drm failed to idle channel ~~", then just installing nvidia driver instead of using xorg will solve your problem.

I'm sorry to see your message too late, and don't have idea to solve that. On my case (Lenovo Legion Y520 15IKBN), just making blacklist file in "/etc/modprobe.d" and rebooting wifi problem. I'm sorry to not helpfull.
Deletefor fix problems with wifi, blue toot and nvidia 1050 just install drivers nvidia 384 in driver administrator.
