The ThinkPad X1 Carbon had just been "coreboot" supported ( so it will be soon the libreboot best/newest one ? ) : that's one big add-point to Linux .
( Sorry if I misunderstood something , it's my first post and I'm not so geeky :) , english too is not my native language )
- lorenzhs 9y agoThe model supported by coreboot is the first generation X1 Carbon, which is 4-5 years old now. I'm talking about the 5th generation, which has only been available for a few months.
- noatime 9y ago@lorezhs : Thanks.
- city41 9y agoAny idea if the trackpad is better? I have three Thinkpads (including the previous Carbon), all running Linux, and the trackpads are just terrible. I'm spoiled because I'm used to the MacBook trackpad.
- dm319 9y agothe 5th gen uses the microsoft precision standard (i.e. sends the raw input to the OS to interpret) - reported to be as good as the surface book, and close to macbook.
- lorenzhs 9y agoI don't use it (I'm a big fan of the trackpoint), but the trackpad's surface feels very pleasant. Can't comment on the accuracy, I probably wouldn't even be able to properly judge or compare it to the MacBook, but I've heard good things from other people.
