I only use old thinkpads like the t420 (my x61 needs fixing) and w520. Coreboot on the t420 and soon on the w520.
Dell Laptops for work.

- 1996 8y agoFunny coincidence! I added w520 support to coreboot as a weekend project several years ago! It should still work great on your w520, except there were several power management issues related to the optimus GPU I just couldn't fix. Oh and careful with the RAM if you use 32G as some brands will not work well, because of raminit issue (I haven't followed, maybe they are fixed now)
