La historia de terror, es porque la querida #ThinkPad #T430, que llevaba 4 años usando como servidor casero, recibió una descarga por tormenta y se le jodió la tarjeta madre. La tenía conectada a un regulador, pero no fue suficiente.
Ahí tenía conectadas 4 unidades de almacenamiento, dos externas y dos internas, entre las cuales se distribuyen mis respaldos y repositorios de información.

Por cierto, ¿ya les había contado que tengo asociadas mis laptops con #StarWars?

La #Inspiron #640m es la Stormtrooper.
La #ThinkPad #T430 es la Darth Vader (no solo por la apariencia, sino porque ya va por su segunda intervención quirúrgica).
La #ThinkPad #T450 es la Kylo Ren.

¡Por fin! Tenía que ser en #DíaDelNiño... Luego de un año posponiendo la subida de versión del SO en mi servidor casero (una #ThinkPad #T430), hoy se concretó... Fue menos traumático de lo que temía, esta vez me decidí por #Xubuntu :xubuntu: 22.04 LTS. La captura la tomé desde mi laptop #T450, mediante VNC con túnel SSH
#EscritorioGNULinux
El proceso se alivianó mucho con #BackInTime y #Syncthing

TIL how simple it is to setup #ThinkPad #UEFI #dualboot (providing one OS is #Windows)

- Install Windows, leaving space free
- Install #osOfChoice (#NetBSD in my case) into free space
- Copy preferred bootx64.efi into /EFI/Boot
- Set ThinkPad BIOS to boot from the drive, *not* "Windows Boot Manager"

Default boot is now osOfChoice

To boot Windows, press F12 and just select "Windows Boot Manager"

Confirmed on #T480 and #T430

Had been using #refind (which is still great for more complex cases)

@libreleah Hi Leah, the #T430 got back fine. It is now super cool and quiet, the big ssd is in and #debian #linux works smoothly. The intel wifi card with ac is great and all-in-all the old bird has really got a new lease of life. Thank you! best regards, Mark

How difficult wouls it be to convert a #thinkpad #t430 keyboard (new version, not classic) to a usb keyboard? I wanted to use jumper cables to connect it to a breadboart first but the keyboard connector is tiny

Alguém aí já fez um Hackintosh? #hackintosh #Lenovo #thinkpad #T430

My current laptop is a Lenovo #t430, running #Devuan / #fluxbox. Latest laptop in a string of #ThinkPad: #t420s, #x300, #t61p.

For me, the X300/X301 was the pinnacle in terms of size, screen ratio, resolution, weight, durability. The low voltage processor just couldn't keep up with the modern world. Post #IBM, seems every Thinkpad is another run on a downward pointing ladder.

Not sure what I will do when this one dies. Man I wish the #Retro / 25th ann. didn't suck.

He andado corre y corre este #ViernesDeEscritorio. La oportunidad de compartir mi #EscritorioGNULinux me toma lejos de mi laptop habitual, así que me conecté desde mi #BisonGT #Adroid a mi servidor casero (una #ThinkPad #T430) y es lo que muestro aquí 🙌

Testing a cheap ExpressCard to NVMe SSD adapter on my #ThinkPad #T430 https://ounapuu.ee/posts/2022/10/04/testing-expresscard-nvme-ssd-adapter/

@meldrian Ein Dell Latitude E5470. Mein #ThinkPad #T430 läuft noch ganz ordentlich, aber #KDEPlasma macht auf nem moderneren Full-HD-Display und besserer Grafikleistung mehr Spaß. Das T430 werd ich aber vermutlich noch als Debian-Xfce-Zweitrechner weiterverwenden.

Der erste E5470, den ich bestellte, kam in einem deutlich schlechteren Zustand an, als versprochen (war bei GreenPanda.de). Der aktuelle stammt von ESM-Computer - und dieses mal ist alles bestens.

My #ThinkPad #T430 keyboard started to enter additional characters/inputs after certain keystrokes. Weird. Attached an external keyboard and everything was fine. Removed the internal keyboard and checked the connector: one of the pins was bent. It could not be fixed. Now said pin is removed the keyboard works perfectly fine again. 🤷

I really wanted to like this thing. I’ve been waiting to have a slim and snappy #Linux laptop with a hi-res screen for years. But before then, I, like many others in the Linux community, was a #ThinkPad diehard—first, I was the proud owner of an ancient IBM #T60 from 2006 that I had heavily modded (motherboard swap, custom bios, the whole shebang). Then I turned 19 and I realized that I needed a real computer for college, so I bought a Lenovo #T430. :mastomonocle:
