I don't know about Risc, but you might want to check out the FSF's Respects Your Freedom certification[0]. The article doesn't mention it, but the Minifree T400 is itself RYF-certified.
You might also want to check out h-node[1] (also by the FSF). I haven't looked into it much, but it seems to be a site dedicated to finding hardware that can be used with completely free software.

- jancsika 9y agoThere's also the EOMA68 project: https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68/micro-desktop https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68/micro-desktop And somebody else who appears to be building a shader compiler for the Mali 400 GPU here: https://github.com/yuq/mesa-lima https://github.com/yuq/mesa-lima If both these projects succeed that would be a fully free arm laptop with a fully free GPU driver. Apparently it will also be possible to print out the laptop itself using a 3d printer apparently being designed and built by that same EOMA68 guy to deliver the boxes people already ordered. Also it looks like the touchpad is just a little square of lcd touchscreen. If that part of the design is kept theoretically you could play quake inside the touchpad.
