/tpg/ - ThinkPad General

Can you make the x220 fhd?

my one doesnt
think its the t430s that has the ips option (dont quote me on that tho)

...

there is a kit but i have no experience with it
requires soldering, specific displays for specific models

Which X model would I need to buy to get a fhd display

How do I disable Bluetooth on start up on the x230 running Ubuntu?

Based lenovo has actually fixed S3 sleep for X1C6 with a bios update.

(New) Support Optimized Sleep State for Linux in ThinkPad Setup - Config - Power.
(Note) "Linux" option is optimized for Linux OS, Windows user must select "Windows 10" option.

Not stock but there is a chinese adapter board on ebay that allows you to use IPS
Yes with nitrocaster's mod board
it doesn't however it was the first vs the regular T430 to get a FHD mod

A few questions:
>how hard is it to unlock the BIOS on the x-series up to 220;
>what are actual alternatives to the tablet variants in the Thinkpad series (latitude/elitebook) if any (the w700 is fine, but I want a capacitive screen);
>is the go-to place for ThinkPads eBay or is there another more obscure place?

What I want is a portable Linux-capable laptop with a digitizer screen that I can both work on my art commissions and study with. Been considering buying an iPad plus an apple pencil from eBay, but the lack of an actual keyboard is a nono for programming purposes.

what are the main differences between a X230 and a T430 (except the display ...)
