minus-squareInaction Figure@fosstodon.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 months ago@faizalr@mstdn.social My daily driver is a refurb #T480, running #Fedora #Kinoite F40. The T480 is great value for money! My previous laptop was a slow-but-sturdy T510, running KDE Neon.
minus-squareM4x@chaos.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months ago@inaction_figure @faizalr fwupd works great on the T480, I’ve used it yesterday. Going to check if it’s working on an T14 Gen2 too.
minus-squareM4x@chaos.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months ago@inaction_figure @faizalr I’ve checked it. According to the docs, it is supported (https://fwupd.org/lvfs/devices/). I’m going to try it out later this week. For now I’m happy that I successfully moved my SSD from my old machine to the new one.

minus-squareInaction Figure@fosstodon.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 months ago@faizalr@mstdn.social @M4x@chaos.social I think so. You may have to install fwupd, as it may not be installed by default. I just saw this thread where someone is troubleshooting a T480 in Arch with fwupd: https://lemmy.ml/post/20181891
