I recently bought a Lenovo L440 Thinkpad. Have installed Linux Mint on it and Keyboard backlit and touch pointer arent working. Rest is all fine. Can anyone help?
Shop owner is saying that the key was probably replaced and has backlit logo on it and the laptop doesn’t have backlit. I am not entirely sure that his statement is right or wrong. Could it be the case that some L440 have backlit and some doesn’t i.e. 2 variants of this tinkpad?
Back then I was using fedora 38 KDE, and I was looking for other options b/c KDE was causing some issues on fedora. Used Mint XFCE for a brief time, then used OpenSUSE Leap & Tumbleweed before finally moving to Debian (current) setup.
I switched to OpenSUSE from Fedora 38. This was back in Nov 2023. Had used fedora for around 1 yr or so and used opensuse after that for few months before I finally switched to Debian.
Yeah, except one thing which is that my microphone is not working and I had to join from my smartphones for meetings. One night I had my laptop running overnight with charger plugged in and the next morning it was dead. Went to a technician he revived the machine but since then microphone is not working. Even if i plug external mic through 3mm jack it also not works. I am usually busy so can’t afford to go back to that technician’s shop to get it fixed again. So i am living with this for now. And there are no other shops nearby. Rest is all good! And yeah for future viewer, whenever you install a distro on MBP 2012 no matter what it is (fedora, opensuse, mint) you have to install wifi drivers manually and you might need ethernet or USB tethering to do this.
