I recently bought a Lenovo L440 Thinkpad. Keyboard backlit and touch pointer arent working. Have installed Linux Mint. Can anyone help?

Not sure if it matters but I have Libreboot installed. It’s the slot located next to the drive slot....

Tried using Google Search for exact keyword match, and so far, it only points out to the page in India. There’s still no review available online, which is a bummer. What’s funny is that their price is almost the same as the previous generation E14 Gen 5 and E16 Gen 1 laptops, I would argue that they’re even more cheaper,...

I’m waiting to buy the AMD Phoenix/HawkPoint variant of Thinkpad E14 G6 and E16 G2....

I’m pretty new to using linux as a desktop solution (I use it for servers but have been working on switching over for desktop). I recently installed NixOS on my P14S Gen 2 and have found that while my backlight works inside the OS, I have no backlight in UEFI and GRUB....

“A bigger change than the upgrade of the memory type is the fact that the memory is no longer partially soldered: E14 G6 and E16 G1 have two SO-DIMM slots now for up to 64 GB of completely upgradeable memory.”

The L series will still be using the Ryzen 7030 series of processors, just like the last year. While I’m happy that they have embraced the spirit of Thinkpad again, I’m really disappointed by the machine using outdated Zen3 processors.

Managed to get hold of an E14 for £250 about this time last year and it has quickly become a favourite of mine for lugging about and twiddling with....

So I’m looking for ThinkPad alternatives, so far I’ve see repairable laptops like the Framework laptop and the Tuxedo linux laptops. What other choices do I have if I want a tough, reliable, and utilitarian computer?

Will it respect the 2024 T-series upgradability choices? What will be the expected price range?

Lenovo is doing a reversal when it comes to the repairability of its ThinkPad T series: The new Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 features two SO-DIMMs and a user-replaceable internal battery. To prove its progress in modularity, the Chinese manufacturer had it reviewed by iFixit - the new ThinkPad laptop scored a near perfect 9.3/10.

Hi ThinkPad community, I just wanted to share this amazing amazing thing that brigthened my day. I hope this feel-good story also brightens your day too...

The title says it all. The Tindie page says...

We had some heavy rain yesterday and my bag (containing my T400) got soaked. I tried to turn it on just now, and it appeared to boot at first....

I’m on the fence about buying a new 3rd-party battery for my Thinkpad T480 as the current external 61 battery is only yielding ~3 hours on normal use (90℅ capacity, so still good given I bought the laptop used) and there’s no internal one on mine....

Anyone managed to make it work? If I assign a core to the Windows VM, it’s constantly at 100% even when idle. Obviously I expected crappy performance but I was hoping that it would at least work. It did pretty well on bare metal....

Hey everyone. A while ago I ordered a keyboard from ebay for my T480, but I failed to notice that the one I got was for the T480s, therefore not compatible with my laptop. In the process of checking it out I lifted one of the connecting tape thingys (idk what theyre called) and some of the black plastic covering on the back of...

Found when browsing Market-Place. Looks like a serious sellers. Although no mentioning of low-ballers and tyre kickers.
