You will never enjoy faster boot speeds and no botnet with that attitude.
>>61846408
This is what happens if you don't libreboot your x60

>>61846478
Okay, good thing I know what an SSD is then

Doesn't it require extensive hardware to do it?
It seems like a comfy thing but I couldn't really be bothered since it's way too low level for me to appreciate.

>>61846065
Because I librebooted my X220.

>>61846498
X60s can be software flashed. I believe the Macbook 2 1s can as well. It took like 10 minutes on trisquell.

Program didn't work on debian stretch though.

I have a bunch of x61s so I just swapped in a motherboard.

>>61846515
Now I'm kinda jealous desu.

I want wwan though.

I have a librebooted macbook2,1. pretty nice tbqh

>>61846655
That screen resolution must be pretty comfy. 1440 by 900 x60 screens are hard to come buy.

>>61846698
It is. I just need to get some stickers to cover up the Apple logo.

>>61846723
Gnu ram head stickers r 5 bucks desu.

>>61846745
Any experience with unixstickers.com?

>>61846777
No man, was considering buying a x220 wrap though. 30 bucks is kinda high for a wrap though.

>>61846076
>weeburboot

>>61846065
because we don't need GNU bios., it's retarded.

>>61846869
:c
>>61846884
Intel ME. Also have you used GNU bios. It's pretty speedy, wish it would have better hardware support though.

>>61846884
Libreboot is not a GNU project.
Anyways, we DO need a free BIOS because modern UEFI implementations are full of vulnerabilities and (potentially) intentional backdoors.

>>61846917
>>61846916
whatever, both my laptop and my desktop are Ayymd-based, so I can't really use it anyway.

>>61846938
Again wished they had better hardware support. Libreboot is pretty much just for core 2, and opterons man.

Sorry man. Coreboot has better support, but it isn't FREE AS IN FREEDOM
https://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards

>>61846976
Coreboot is indeed free as in freedom (in fact, Libreboot is just a fork of Coreboot).
However, Coreboot does allow you to use non-free blobs (generally things like video bios roms) which is why it has much better hardware support. If you can't run Libreboot, Coreboot is the next best thing and is still far better than a proprietary UEFI.

>>61847023
The limited hardware support in libreboot, is kinda interesting.

Do you think coreboot would have the same issue of unsupported devices. I would coreboot my x220, but I am planning to add a gobi2000.

8400gs is supported :/

>>61847071
Generally things like support for PCI devices and GPUs is determined by the OS. As long as coreboot doesn't have any bugs for the x220 regarding PCI, it should work just fine.

>>61847095
Might give it a shot later. Need to buy a pi or something first so I can flash it.

>>61847113
I flashed coreboot to my T430 with a buspirate + some cheap SOIC-8 clip from amazon. 8/8 would recommend.

>>61847137
I had a e430 in highschool, the laptop slowly died. I imagine the t430 has alot better build quality. Is it still 1366x768?

Not the person you replied to but I can't even replace the bios chip on my laptop

>>61846515
Impossible, idiot. You're a dev or lying.

>>61847168
My model has a rather lackluster 1600x900 TN panel. The resolution is ok but the colors and viewing angles are horrible.
The build quality on the other hand, is spectacular.

>>61847184
Better start sucking cocks desu. You could probably get a x60 pretty easily.

Not even hardware flashing with one of those SOIC clips.
>>61847205
My ex had the t420 with the 1600x900 TN panel. IPS is nice, but I'd probably prefer a 1600x900 TN lol

I have a x220. 1366x768. Unless you want to buy expensive Chinese mods.

>>61846065
because I have to use a modern laptop for my jobs and that libreboot only exist for 10 yo shit.

Implying laptops have changed much in the last 10 years.

Also coreboot supports more modern hardware.

>>61847230
I was actually looking into some of those mods to upgrade to a 1080p IPS, but the eDP->LVDS adapter is very hard to find outside of china.

>>61846076
i wanna fuck that bussy

>>61847254
I just got used to 1366x768, I think the t430 has an IPS mod that only needs a cable extension

>>61847247
I use tones of bloat ware for my job (and windows ofc) so I have 16 Go RAM 90% full
You rigth but not mine :'(
Will see if I can dev the coreboot for my personal gayming desktop.

>>61847320
I use windows on my desktop, because of video editing software. University has huge software discounts. Your not using 10 at least right :'c

Can you watch anime on libreboot?

>>61846076

>>61847363
Windows 10 is more comfy for me than 7 or wath ever, just a pref.

>>61846065

>>61847384

>>61847393
No
>>61847399
tfw I will eventually have to work on windows 10 systems because normies and infosystems career.

>>61847422
What is do you run on your x200 do you use i3wm

>>61846065
Does libreboot also come with UEFI or does it only implement the old BIOS api?

>>61847498
I don't know. Grub is on the flash chip.

>>61846076
holy fug, literally 17 seconds

>>61847023
>proprietary UEFI
Only the PI part and some DXE drivers are proprietary (drivers don't matter, we could just port over the linux drivers to DXE). The bulk of the firmware, the DXE core, is completely open source. Hell, UEFI is more open than BIOS ever was. The problem isn't UEFI, the problem is chip and mainboard manufacturers not opening up their hardware specification so we can't write our own platform init code.

>>61847247
Are there any recent desktop mainboards with coreboot support?

>>61847555
>complain about UEFI being bloat
>turn grub into fucking firmware

In an UEFI environment GRUB is the bloat. All I need to boot any os of my choosing is to load the EFI shell and type in a command. And the shell is on the firmware rom itself. Why would I want grub?

>>61847466
Can't watch anime? Then fuck off

I use an almost default Trisquel install. i see no reason to change a DE or WM, the applications i use don't require it.

>>61847582
Overclocked core 2 quad might be somewhat modern.

I've been looking for a x60 at a good price for a while but found nothing. I've got a t400 for like 35$ tho. Can anyone fill me in on how you change traditional bios settings (time/date/boot order etc) with libreboot? Also can i shove in a qx9300 with it?

>>61847630
There is no sandy bridge era laptop with libre, right?

>supporting trannyboot

No, thanks. I stick with superior coreboot.

>>61847624
Aw I was just wondering it seems librebooted x200s go hand in hand with i3 ricing.
>>61847641
No libre boot, but core boot yes
>>61847639
I think you have to do a reflash to change most settings. Not sure though.
Qx9300 probably.

>>61847711
I did a little bit of googling and I only found about a t500 and he did a lot of modding on the chip itself and also on the mobo (and it also was in german). I think my best bet would be the t9900 or the x9100 I was also curios if you could do some light oc'ing on libreboot.

>>61846065
Is that an X60 mobo?

>>61846917
You fucking retard, why would literally every large enterprise/bank trust these fucking hardware companies with their most closely guarded trade secrets, talking like Coke recipes, video game/DRM source code, customer databases, if there was even the slightest chance of a fucking backdoor?

You have no counterargument you dumb turd

>>61846917
I thought libreboot rejoined GNU?

>>61846065
I want to get an X60 for framebuffer comfy. What's the fan like?

Because I'm posting from a Libreboot T400 right now.

>>61846065
because there's no trannyboot for x220

>>61849885
it's not, you just need a test clip, rpi to act as a flasher and a couple hours of your sweet, precious time to get it done

>>61846065
I am not poor

>>61846240
sicc burnn

>>61846065
I actually am. Although I am trying to change it. No luck so far tho.

How do I libreboot my X220?

>>61846723
>current year
>anon still in closet

Time flies when you're a faggot

Is librebooting a t400 hard? What board can you use to flash it?

>>61850206
you can use beagle board or rpi by just setting some kernel config and building an spi module, then you just buy one of the test clips for about $30 and you'll need a seperate power supply as well to power the spi chip.
Theres a chance you might brick a few of the chips before you get it done but you can just swap the mobo out or resolder on a new flash chip

>>61850269
You don't even have to build an spi module on later kernels. I flashed my T400 with just a default Raspbian install. Not to mention the rPi supplies 3.5V just fine to the chip so a separate power supply isn't necessary.

>>61846076
You look exactly like an ex of mine from high school except a little more "guyish"

>trannyboot
No thanks

>>61846065

Sorry I don't live in the past

>>61846076
h-hey qt, you single?

the x200t is hard to libreboot so I wait until I get any kind of response fron somebody who has already done it (the bios chip is locked so you have to flash another chip first before then going over to the bios chip, chipset is different from the standard x200 (gm45 vs gs45) so its quite different)

>>61852286
If you want wifi yes most likely

>>61848784
Yeah it swaps right into the x61.
>>61847825
Idk if you can do overclocking, I was curious about this too. You can do software overclocking though.

Overclock laptop chip sounds sketchy.

>>61846065

It was some really beat up x61 I got. I originally planned to see if the plastidip would make it look a bit nicer. Turned out terrible, so I added stickers.

I ended up buying a lot of 5 x61(s) off eBay later so selavie.

Openbox and lxpanel. Thank you!!

Yeah. It's kinda worn down, and the ribbon cable has a short so it's hard to get working again whenever I take it apart. A new one is in the mail. I'll be happy when it comes, this one is really worn down…

>>61855286
kek, just noticed that spacebar is small as japanese man's dick
sooo many keys!

but american penis soooo big

Because I have a librebooted x200 instead. And I will have it until the x220 one comes out when I will libreboot my x220.

>>61846065
because i have a job and i haven't gotten to it yet
gotta ask, does the thinklight work with a librebooted machine? this is critical

>>61855421
works on my x200. if you use a model that's supported by libreboot, everything works. just need to make sure you have the right wifi card installed

>>61855286
ah shit you are lucky, ive been looking for a japanese thinkpad for a while.

>>61850287
Yeah I used a RPI 3 and some bent paperclips and tape cause I didn't have any extra wires and it worked fine first try

>>61855435
I have an X200, and I might have a supported wi-fi card lying around from some laptop i scrapped

>>61847624

how is Trisquel 7.0?

>>61855440
Look no further for I have the solution for you, you can buy a regular thinkpad and put a Japanese keyboard in it. Keep in mind though you probably won't like using the layout as much as the regular one unless you regularly type in Japanese.

>>61855440
>>61855572
Yeah you can just get a keyboard on ali or something and convert any region Thinkpad into a Nip one.

>>61855544

>>61846065
what happens if i try to install libreboot with the bios flasher program that is used for the manufacturers bios updates?

>>61855632
On newer hardware parts of the chip that store the BIOS are locked from being written to. You have to use an external flasher to install Libreboot. After that, Libreboot unlocks the chip so you can flash new versions right from the OS.

On older hardware it's probably possible.
