proprietary components status

  • CPU Microcode (optional?)
  • VGA option rom (optional): without it you will get no graphics during early boot, until the kernel initializes the intel graphic card
  • EC(Embedded Controller) => you do not have to touch it(just leave it where it is)

TODO

Non-free components replacements

  • Replace the non-free VGA option rom by making native graphics init work.
  • Create a Native graphics<->VGA option rom.
  • Make backlight work without the non-free option rom.

Other things

  • Add support for more batteries in ACPI.
  • Make the wifi card and/or the laptop produce less heat.
  • Finish and merge support for thinkpad_acpi linux kernel module
  • Sometimes some dock USB port aren't initialized => fix that


Features

cbmem console

To get cbmem console working you need the non-free i915 option rom or native graphics(doesn't work yet, don't use). Even with a dummy VGA option rom it fails: 

[root@X60 cbmem]# ./cbmem -c -VVV
Looking for coreboot table at 0
Mapping 1MB of physical memory at 0x0.
Unmapping 1MB of virtual memory at 0xb7463000.
Looking for coreboot table at f0000
Mapping 1MB of physical memory at 0xf0000.
Failed to mmap /dev/mem: Operation not permitted
[root@X60 cbmem]# dmesg -c
[26300.943482] Program cbmem tried to access /dev/mem between f0000->1f0000.

thinkpad_acpi compatibility

First cherry-pick the commits that permit thinkpad_acpi to work: 

git fetch http://review.coreboot.org/coreboot refs/changes/56/1556/1 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD
git fetch http://review.coreboot.org/coreboot refs/changes/57/1557/1 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD

Dmidecode from the BIOS says: 

BIOS Information
	Vendor: LENOVO
	Version: 7BETC7WW (2.08 )

So in make menuconfig go in 

General setup  --->

And modify Local version string accordinly 

(7BETC7WW (2.08 )) Local version string

Then locate the following in dmidecode: 

System Information
	Manufacturer: LENOVO
	Product Name: 1707Y8W
	Version: ThinkPad X60
	Serial Number: L3BY949

Then in 

Mainboard  --->

do that: 

(L3BY949) Serial number
(ThinkPad X60) Version number
(LENOVO) BIOS table vendor string

Then configure and build coreboot as usual

To modprobe the module use that: 

modprobe thinkpad_acpi force_load=1 debug=0xffff fan_control=1 experimental=1
