Don't get me started.

There are good reasons why I have personal "production system" to do my work with.

Yes, I did set the BIOS GPU config to "discrete only" and now it works.

I probably should!

they are not... but they are on different resolution. the primary is on 1080p while the secondary is on HD+

I'm currently using LMDE on Thinkpad W530 for work. Pretty much stationary, with second monitor and all. I got a more mobile X230 with 9 cell battery (same OS) for when I need to be on the move.

That i7 on the W540 would be very useful if you want to have good compilation time for your system.

Should be more straightforward without the Nvidia stuff since you don't need the option ROM for it.

I never have T430, but all the 30 series should be the same in term of flashing procedure except for the chip locations.

Not the person you're replying to, but I happen to have a writeup on my blog! https://timkenhan.co/blog/20230720--w530-coreboot

I happened to have put together a class curriculum for something quite similar when I was doing volunteering work at FreeGeek. This was a few years ago, but it should still be good.

releasing the information versus acquiring the released information are two different thing.

Otherwise, Windows 10 LTSC would do
