Adding USB 3 to a USB 2 docking station -- possible?
My thinkpad and also the docking station are purely USB 2. I added a usb3 expresscard (or whatever). Itβs a strange beast. It has a barrel connector to add power that connects to a usb2 port. Someone told me the xpresscard bus has usb2 natively but not usb3, so I donβt know what kind of trickery it does but iβve also read that mini pcie usb3 cards cannot be used in parallel with usb2 ports. Is it all the same problem if I try to attach a USB3 card to a docking station? I noticed the pinouts are available for some docking stations, but they tend to have usb3 as some of the pins, which would not likely be the case with pre-usb3 docks.

Updating an old thinkpad z61m from 2007, yes it is somewhat slow, but it still works after now nearly 20 years! (is that called sustainable?)
Thanks to the debian project!. I think the first debian version on it was etch (4) and now I upgrade to trixie (13).
If you have a ThinkPad X1 Carbon of some variety, does it support S3 sleep? There might be an option to enable it in the UEFI (Sleep State > Linux, or Modern Standby > Disabled). If so, what generation of X1 do you have?
