🧵 7/n i am SO MUCH more confident in my old tablet, running #FydeOS, after confirming the automatic 2x RAM-as-SWAP memory scheme.

There's not much left to macGyver, on this tablet.

👉 it reboots in almost no time
👉 with all that swap space, i don't have to worry about too many tabs (within reason)

🤬 sometimes, though, my #Lenovo #IdeaPad Miix (510-12IKB) fails to detect the #battery state! (IT IS >90%, most of the time) sometimes it shows 0%, charging symbol, and reboots - makes NO sense! 🤬

I wrote a blogpost about making AMD Zen3(+)-based Lenovo IdeaPads work with Linux (they have an annoying suspend/s2idle-related bug).

It also has a section about creating ACPI fake-devices to work around "Could not resolve symbol [...], AE_NOT_FOUND" ACPI errors.

Running Linux on an AMD Zen3-based Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 - ./gibson.sh --blog

I had a simple task: Install and configure my mothers new laptop. To my surprise she wanted to to try Linux, because Windows 11 again has a new UI and her reasoning was that if she needs to get used to something new it might as well be Linux - and I guess the fact that Win11 only got buggier over time has reached normies now. Now this should be no problem. Unfortunately that laptop, a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 16ABR8, turned out to have firmware bugs related to suspend (s2idle). I debugged the issues and eventually found ways to fix/work around them - this blogpost shows how.

Cusror lagging but fixed after suspending (24.04.4 LTS)

After a recent update, the cursor started to lag significantly. I discovered that it can somehow be fixed by suspending the device. I'm using Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro 16ACH6 with 24.04.4 LTS. I was won...

🧵 12/n auto-rotate doesn't work, #BugReport!

Nope, the landscape/portrait mode DOES NOT adjust automatically! #FydeOS on #Lenovo #IdeaPad Miix (510-12IKB).

I CAN adjust manually, but it takes 1 tap for each 90° rotation - inconvenient!

Ein #IdeaPad Slim 3 hat ein defektes Scharnier — innerhalb der Gewährleistung UND mit 3-Jahre-Vor-Ort-Garantie. Trotzdem komme ich keinen Schritt weiter.

Nach 4 geschlossenen Tickets und mehreren Anrufen hat mir bisher kein Mitarbeiter erklären wollen, warum das ein „benutzerverursachter Schaden“ sein soll. Und sie berufen sich immer wieder darauf und schließen die Garantie aus. Ich könne es zur kostenpflichtigen Überprüfung einschicken.

Mein Hirn denkt schon darüber nach, mich an die #heise#Redaktion von #VorsichtKunde zu wenden. @heiseonline

Argh. #freebsd does not want to be a desktop on an #Ideapad. I have a truly aggravating time identifying the video devices to start #x11. And yesterday it decided to forget a number of installed packages, like #w3m or the video drivers. I just #pkg install what I noticed missing, but I don't have a clue why marked them not installed.

I shall, at some point, get freebsd to work. Someday.

I am indeed giving in to the intrusive thoughts and buying myself a new Android tablet, one that has real actual pen support and not just "conductive rubber tipped stylus that doesn't tap the correct place half the time"

That said, I'm looking for recommendations, specifically this... has anybody owned or used a Lenovo Idea Pad?

Lenovo and Samsung seem to be the only real competitors in the "tablets that have their own dedicated pens" field, excluding the big obvious "fruit-flavored" brand, which I do not touch.

I have experience with Samsung tablets, but I've never gotten my hands on a Lenovo and am curious if anybody used one with the pen and how the pen felt, responded, etc
