Re: [Libreboot] Target candidate: Thinkpad T400s

[persmule]

Hi Bruno,

The graphic problem has been fixed in the newist git.

The clock problem of the last stable release is actually that you cannot
save the correct time when shutting down the linux 4.3 or higher.
Libreboot d48086382951072039226a8cbde1d9d009cfad12 and newer version has
fixed this problem. You can set the correct time manually, and test
whether it can survive after shutdown.

Everything works fine on my x200. Suspension and graphic output for grub
remains failed on my t400s.

All my computer is running Debian GNU/Linux testing, in which linux
4.5.4-1 has resently been updated.
