Albert, good morning! There is a Debian wiki about ThinkPad computers... But, the X240S isn't listed. You can check here: https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Thinkpad There is a mailing list about ThinkPad too... You can check here: http://mailman.linux-thinkpad.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-thinkpad that can be better for you.
If anyone can help our friend with this specific model, that would be great! :) Best, Yuri Musachio Montezuma da Cruz On Feb 28 2023, at 9:17 am, Anastasios Lisgaras <tasosnumber...@yahoo.gr> wrote: > On 2/28/23 09:51, Albert Cornelius wrote: > > I have a Thinkpad X240s.
