				<ul>
					<li><a href="kfsn4-dre.html">ASUS KFSN4-DRE server/workstation board</a></li>
					<li><a href="#supported_x60_list">Lenovo ThinkPad X60/X60s</a></li>

					<li><a href="#macbook11">Apple MacBook1,1</a></li>
					<li><a href="#macbook21">Apple MacBook2,1</a></li>
				</ul>

			<p>
				'Supported' means that the build scripts know how to build ROM images for these systems,
				and that the systems have been tested (confirmed working). There may be exceptions; 
				in other words, this is a list of 'officially' supported systems.
			</p>

			<p>
				It is also possible to build ROM images (from source) for other systems (and virtual systems, e.g. QEMU).

				('<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_BIOS">Video BIOS</a>' or 'VBIOS'),
				all known LCD panels are currently compatible:

			<p>
				You can remove an X61/X61s motherboard from the chassis and install an X60/X60s motherboard in it's place (for flashing libreboot). The chassis is mostly identical
				and the motherboards are the same shape/size.
			</p>

			<p>
				The X60 typically comes with an Intel wifi chipset which does not work at all without proprietary firmware, and while Lenovo BIOS is running
				the system will refuse to boot if you replace the card. Fortunately it is very easily replaced;
				just remove the card and install another one <b>after</b> libreboot is installed. See <a href="#recommended_wifi">#recommended_wifi</a> for replacements.

				Native gpu initialization ('native graphics') which replaces the proprietary VGA Option ROM 
				('<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_BIOS">Video BIOS</a>' or 'VBIOS').
			</p>

			<p>
				To find what LCD panel you have, see: <a href="../misc/index.html#get_edid_panelname">../misc/index.html#get_edid_panelname</a>.

			<p>
				There are 5 known LCD panels for the X60 Tablet:
			</p>
				<ul>
					<li>
						<b>X60T XGA (1024x768):</b>
						<ul>
							<li>BOE-Hydis HV121X03-100 (works)</li>

				</ul>

			<p>
				Most X60Ts only have digitizer (pen), but some have finger (touch) aswell as pen; finger/multitouch doesn't work, only digitizer (pen) does.
			</p>

			<p>
				You can remove an X61/X61s motherboard from the chassis and install an X60/X60s motherboard in its place (for flashing libreboot). The chassis is mostly identical
				and the motherboards are the same shape/size. <b>It is unknown if the same applies between the X60 Tablet and the X61 Tablet</b>.
			</p>

			<p>
				The X60 Tablet typically comes with an Intel wifi chipset which does not work at all without proprietary firmware, and while Lenovo BIOS is running
				the system will refuse to boot if you replace the card. Fortunately it is very easily replaced;
				just remove the card and install another one <b>after</b> libreboot is installed. See <a href="#recommended_wifi">#recommended_wifi</a> for replacements.

			<p>
				A user with a X60T that has digitizer+finger support, reported that they could get finger input working. They
				used linuxwacom at git tag 0.25.99.2 and had the following in their xorg.conf:
			</p>

<pre>
# Now, for some reason (probably a bug in linuxwacom),
# the 'Touch=on' directive gets reset to 'off'.
# So you'll need to do
# $ xsetwacom --set WTouch Touch on

				The T60 typically comes with an Intel wifi chipset which does not work at all without proprietary firmware, and while Lenovo BIOS is running
				the system will refuse to boot if you replace the card. Fortunately it is very easily replaced;
				just remove the card and install another one <b>after</b> libreboot is installed. See <a href="#recommended_wifi">#recommended_wifi</a> for replacements.

		<h2 id="t60_ati_intel">ThinkPad T60 (ATI GPU) and ThinkPad T60 (Intel GPU) differences.</h2>

			<p>
				If your T60 is a 14.1&quot; or 15.1&quot; model with an ATI GPU, it won't work with libreboot by default but
				you can replace the motherboard with another T60 motherboard that has an Intel GPU, and then libreboot should work.
			</p>

			<p>
				As far as I know, 14.1&quot; (Intel GPU) and 15.1&quot; (Intel GPU) T60 motherboards are the same, where
				'spacers' are used on the 15.1&quot; T60. In any case, it makes sense to find one that is guaranteed to fit in your chassis.
			</p>

			<p>
				There is also a 15.4&quot; T60 with Intel GPU.
			</p>

			<p>
				Note: the T60<b>p</b> laptops all have ATI graphics. 
				The T60p laptops cannot be used with libreboot under any circumstances.
			</p>

			<p>
				The following T60 motherboard (see area highlighted in white) shows an empty space where the ATI GPU would be (this particular motherboard has an Intel GPU):<br/><br/>
				<img src="../images/t60_dev/t60_unbrick.jpg" alt="" />
			</p>

			<p>
				The reason that the ATI GPU on T60 is unsupported is due to the VBIOS (Video BIOS) which is non-free. 
				The VBIOS for the Intel GPU on X60/T60 has been reverse engineered, and replaced with Free Software and
				so will work in libreboot.
			</p>

			<p>
				The 'Video BIOS' is what initializes graphics.
			</p>

			<p>
				See: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_BIOS">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_BIOS</a>.<br/>
				In fact, lack of free VBIOS in general is a big problem in coreboot, and is one reason (among others) why many ports for coreboot are 
				unsuitable for libreboot's purpose.
			</p>

			<p>
				Theoretically, the ThinkPad T60 with ATI GPU can work with libreboot and have ROM images compiled for it, however
				in practise it would not be usable as a laptop because there would be no visual display at all. That being said,
				such a configuration is acceptable for use in a 'headless' server setup (with serial and/or ssh console as the display).

				There is an Apple laptop called the macbook1,1 from 2006 which uses the same i945 chipset as the ThinkPad X60/T60.

				You need to replace OS X with GNU/Linux before flashing libreboot. (OSX won't run at all in libreboot).
			</p>

			<p>
				There are some issues with this system (compared to other computers that libreboot supports):
			</p>

			<p>
				This is an apple laptop, so it comes with OS X: it has an Apple keyboard, which means that certain keys are missing:
				insert, del, home, end, pgup, pgdown. There is also one mouse button only. Battery life is poor compared to X60/T60 (for now). 
				It also has other issues: for example, the Apple logo on the back is a hole, exposing the backlight, which means that it glows. You should cover it up.
			</p>

			<p>
				The system does get a bit hotter compared to when running the original firmware. It is certainly hotter
				than an X60/T60. The heat issues have been partially fixed by the following patch (now merged in libreboot):
				<a href="http://review.coreboot.org/#/c/7923/">http://review.coreboot.org/#/c/7923/</a>.

					The MacBook2,1 comes with a webcam, which does not work without proprietary software. Also, webcams are a security risk; cover it up! Or remove it.
