Everyone once in a while, while I'm actively using the laptop, it just...locks up: what's on the screen stops changing, the hard drive light is pegged on with no fluctuation, moving the mouse doesn't move the pointer, typing doesn't effect anything, I cannot switch to a different tty (CTRL-ALT-F1)...I haven't tried pinging it, but I suspect its completely frozen.
I don't have any evidence that it was stable before and that Coreboot is the problem, it could be, or it could be some bad hardware. On 02/28, thinkpad-e535-user wrote:

I've spent a whole day reading libre-/coreboot docs trying to find out if I could boot OpenBSD from an encrypted disk on my x200 with these, and according to libre one's I could not [0]. Good to know that it's actually possible with coreboot and SeaBIOS. >I'm encountering what seems to be a random lockup every few days, haven't had a chance to troubleshoot it yet.
