I know people say things like this jokingly, but it sounds to me like this is a "you" problem

what could you possibly have done to screw up a base ubuntu install? it works out of box, even the FN functions and the volume controls

did you get a particularly outdated model or something?

>>59000125
Don't worry, you're just retarded, anon.
However there's a simple solution.

Sounds like you have never used linux before. Also

What thinkpad did you get? I bought a refurbished x220 and while the screen is shit, Ubuntu works flawlessly with all the functionality out of the box. Are you using some rare thinkpad instead?

Probably bought a yoga. Newfriends never check stickys or generals. It's his own fault that he bought blindly

>>59000125
>>find out it has absolutely shit display
is what happens when you don't do your homework
I'll grant you I would have opted out from a 3k screen on my T560 if I could have been sure to get a decent 1080p one

Just cut your losses and flip it on ebay. Clearly you cannot handle the power of a business machine.

I have a T420 and swapped in an alienware screen. looks great runs great. with a slice battery i've got 12 hours of battery life. It sounds like you fail at everything you try, so just stop trying.

>he fell for the Thinkpad meme instead of the Elitebook meme
