I got a X220 tablet version (2.80GHz 4GB 320GB HDD for 220USD). It was advertised as Win7 came with Win10, I've already tried backup/restore/factory reset to no avail. I bought the machine mostly so I could have something decent to draw on, so I would like to have a Win machine so I don't have try to run Photoshop through Wine or learn some unfamiliar program. But more than that, whenever I try to lay the screen flat on top the keyboard, the pen starts acting funky(it doesn't want to click when I tap it down, or randomly right clicks). It doesn't have that issue when the screen is slightly tilted though.

Is the pen issue some something hardware or could it be possibly fixed if I got a different OS? Or should I just return it?

Can I use an X220 battery in an X230? Neither are tablets.

>>61857078
I think the X230 has a whitelist for genuine batteries, so you can only use it if it's a real Lenovo battery
>>
>>61857161
>>61857179
Guess I'll go for the X220 after all, got a good price on a factory sealed Lenovo 9-cell.

You can only use the battery, but you can't charge it. Though it works the other way around, you can use and charge x230 battery on x220.

1. how usable is a libre computer really? shitposting works of course but what about chinese cartoons? most streams use proprietary software, right?
2. did you ever feel the urge to go back to proprietary software?
3. did you ever go back to proprietary software
4. have you started eating your foot fungus?

If it's a Model 44++ it will work on X230 and X220, if it's a 29++ it will only work on X220, I don't think they made 29++ after 2013 so if that's what you have, it's very old stock anyway.
>>
>>61858287
what's your thinkpad model and what's your windows version? I read somewhere that they got rid of System Update for Windows 8 and 10.
Anyways, you just download it from Lenovo website. You're gonna need some NET Framework installed though. I think 3.5 but I might be wrong.

OK so I looked it up. You're gonna need NET Framework 4.0 and you should be fine to download System Update from Lenovo. It also works on Win 8/8.1 but for Windows 10 they got some other solution I currently can't wrap my head around because I'm high as fuck

Finally got around to cleaning out my x230, redoing the thermal paste and replacing the noisy fan. Temps are down by 10C and it's much quieter, so that's nice. Had to take it apart again and reseat the keyboard cable though because neither the touchpad or the trackpoint worked the first time.
>>
Fuck, /g/, I want to buy a thinkpad for comfy programming but I can't decide between x230 and t420. x230 has a better display, cpu and gpu but afaik less ports and worse resolution. What do? I want to use this laptop in uni as well.
>>
>>61856477
The HDD doesn't matter, you'll get an SSD eventually. Get the t420, with the money you saved you can probably buy 16gb of ram.
>>
>>61858423
If you'll be using an IDE, get the T420 with 1600x900 screen because 768 pixels vertically is too crowded.

Does anyone have the X230 modified BIOS?

How can i check if a T400 uses CFL or LED backlight?

Are you trying to say

For modern thinkpads, (post T430) every screen that's not 1366x768 is IPS

Keyboard is the same type as post x220 i think, apart from small changes to layout/size.
And it looks like you can replace stuff just like with older models too, going from images off google.
My main concern was if there were some major defect or stupidity involved, like the xx40's shit touchpad, major incompatibility with lunix, etc.

Thinking of getting my sister a laptop for uni. I'm a desktop guy myself so I'm not too sure what to go for.

Budget: $600-$850
Location: Canada
Size: 15.6 inch
Performance: Some video rendering help would be nice. Mostly browsing and spreadsheets. i5 or higher.
Other requirements: Looking for something that will be good for a few years. 1080p, 8gb-ish ram. An SSD would be nice.

t460 has a 940m which should run ow *pretty okay* at low settings. probably best to wait for an mx150 thinkpad which might not come, or just get some dumb gaming laptop with a 1050/60

(i run an x220 + 750ti egpu which can do medium/high settings, but i assume you want an all-in-one solution and not some hacky bullshit setup like mine)

you know, what I don't understand about post 30 series models is that they removed the dedicated volume buttons to make the gap between keyboard and screen smaller to allow for a larger palmrest, but they don't just put them on those fuck huge side bezels. if there's enough space for the on/off switch, there should be enough space for 2 more buttons. or possibly 2 on one side for volume and 2 on the other side for brightness. this is not even about 6 rows vs 7 rows. they wouldn't need an additional row to get some more dedicated buttons in there.

I get why they wanted to make the palmrest bigger and make the whole thing look more modern (though I don't agree with it) but come on lenovo...

QUESTION:

A few weeks ago I read somewhere that Lenovo is planning to shut down their PC branch. This would mean the end of Thinkpad. Objectively it would be a mercy kill but I'd still find it kinda sad. I can't find anything regarding that currently. Is it true?
>>
>>61870960
So I bought 2 pepes (1 smug and 1 on tux body), a Kek symbol and LaTeX symbol. All of these are going on my X220's back
>>
>>61870918
what for?
You know you can scroll with right button, right?
>>
How should I clean my Thinkpad? I have a lint-free cloth, but what should I use as a cleaning fluid?
>>
>>61871398
you can wet the cloth a tiny little bit. that should be enough. to get all the gaps you could remove the keyboard and clean that seperately. for removing dust get a microfiber cloth. these are great
>>
Is there really no thinkpad that I can run overwatch on that has an hdmi port? I can afford it
>>
>>61871428
>HDMI
display port it is. why in the world would a laptop have an HDMI port? these are typically on the dock

X260 for €400 yes or no?
>>
>>61872751
if you got money to spare yea why not
you can install a FHD IPS panel iirc
other specs? processor, storage, ram etc
>>61872686
intel sells these SSDs
>>
>>61872686
160gb Intel SSD was one of the options
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:T420

if you can get the serial number you can look it up on Lenovo's site and see what it came with

hey guys, I cracked the lid of my x230 slightly. should I be worried about this worsening and affecting my screen/other components? or can I just leave it be?

cheers.
>>
>>61873136
i5 6200u is shit
128gb ssd is alright
8gb ram is good

imo don't do it, just get an older x200 or x220/x230
>>61873336
thinkpads are built for just this my dude so please, no worries
>>
what's the #/tpg/ telegram group again
>>
>>61873358
>i5 6200u is shit
well the other CPUs they offer aren't exactly good either. they pretty much all use ultrabook CPUs now except the p versions and as far as I know there are no p versions of X series laptops

>>61873136
the power is decent and you get 1080p IPS if you want to. you don't have that option on an X220 or X230
>>
>>61867665
Pretty good deal imo, but like the other anon said you need to fix it up a little

Anyone mind sharing how to customize the fn hotkeys for x230 in windows 10? Also what is the long black button next to the mic mute button, is is used for anything?

>>
>>61873706
>tainting a thinkpad with win 10
>not having a win 7 product key
>>
>>61873706
Windows 10 is ridiculous
The black button used to be blue on older models. It's the ThinkVantage button. It is used to open Lenovo support and on old models it was also used to access BIOS
You can't really use it though because as far as I know you need to have a company contract with Lenovo to get the business level support

Is there a way to get a 1600x900 IPS display for the T450? I really want one of these but I'd hate to go for 1080p if I upgrade to IPS because then I'd have to use scaling which would render Linux unusable...
