El año es 2026, y este su interlocutor está echando codiguito en una #Thinkpad #T470s del 2018, con un teclado encima porque el integrado ya no furula, usando #neovim como editor con apenas resaltado de sintaxis y unos cuantos #LSP .

Finally tried #NetBSD 10.1 RELEASE baremetal on my #ThinkPad #T470s. Good news is most things seem to work out of box: WiFi, touchpad, i915 drived video card. Bad news is, suspend/wakeup (S3) not working. It appears suspend worked well since after issuing sysctl -w hw.acpi.sleep.state=3 the laptop went to sleep with blinking power led, fan stops. However, at wakeup keyboard just stops responding, even swtiching tty with Ctrl-Alt-Fn keys. WiFi usually wakes up just fine since I gain ssh session back shortly after wakeups. I will conclude a major issue for a system if suspend/wakeup won't work for a laptop. I simply cannot imagine having to poweroff a laptop every day before going to bed. It is kinda a sueprise to me since I assume ThinkPad laptops usually get along well with #BSD and #Linux systems.

FYI, S3 suspend/wakeup works flawlessly with #FreeBSD and #OpenBSD on this laptop without any hack.

Just did some upgrades, service and thermal cleaning on a ThinkPad T470s laptop.

This laptop has two internal batteries. The back one was a bit puffy "spicy pillow". I had another used battery on hand that wasn't puffy, so replace it.

Replaced the thermal paste on the CPU.

Upgraded from 8GB to 12GB (one memory slot, 4GB on the motherboard, so took out a 4GB module and replaced with 8GB module).

Upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11 with an installer made by Rufus, which bypasses the hardware requirements check.

Scanned for malware with Malwarebytes. It found a bunch of "mindspark" junk references and removed them.

#thinkpad #t470s

Ich habe jetzt mal seit längerem wieder #ubuntu ausprobiert und ich muss gestehen, dass die Version 22.10 super smooth auf meinem #thinkpad #t470s läuft. Ich bin echt begeistert ...

#fediverse Ich liebäugel mit einem #Thinkpad (refurbished). Meine engere Wahl ist ein #t470s oder #t480s. OS wird Linux natürlich, idealerweise #debian11. Irgendwelche Go's oder No-Go's bei den Modellen bekannt? Zu welchem würdet ihr mir raten?

Meinen frischen Firmen-Schleppi #Lenovo #T470s erstmal zum Test mit #Debian befreit - Standard-Repository - Grub direkt ins EFI: läuft. \o/
