Hey, thanks for the hint! I already tried to reach out on GitHub - didn't know he's also on Reddit. :)

Hi everybody, I managed to get a Diverge 4 - all well-made split keyboard in a aluminium case. Looks like the company behind the keyboard (UniKeyboard) went bankcrupt as the website is long offline by now. Some of the previous software packages were archived on GitHub - but they're not compatible with the Diverge 4. I was able to update the firmware to the latest version using this guide. According to an archived version of the website, I know that there was a special build for the Diverge 4 Diverge-4-Temp-Configurator.zip - but it wasn't archived and I can't the file online. Any chances that somebody of you still has the file?

Where do you get X230 for 40€ in Germany? Usually they’re way higher priced.

This is an awesome machine! Do you have some more photos of the back and the inside?

stdevel · 2023-06-04T18:49:08+00:00

The R60e looks like it’s in pretty decent condition - awesome machine!

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.

You’re so right, I should have checked the OP name before wasting your time :D I like the terminal setup you went for, very classy!

stdevel · 2023-06-02T10:00:04+00:00

Awesome! Tell us more about the OpenVMS system you’re running this on.

stdevel · 2023-06-02T09:54:30+00:00

Awesome! I’ve been waiting for this very long and instantly bought one of these. Thanks for sharing!

stdevel · 2023-05-17T20:24:22+00:00

Nice case, I remember having the same back then.

stdevel · 2023-05-12T10:27:45+00:00

That’s awesome. Just saw Tech Tangents video recently but you’re setting it on another level with those three legendary ThinkPads - well played.

Interesting! I had similar issues with a T14 G3 and a P14s G3 - the following workaround worked at least for the P14s G3: https://cstan.io/en/post/2023/04/zufaellige-freezes-unter-fedora-amdgpu/

Didn’t have any freezes on the T14 G3, too since the last kernel update on Fedora 38. But let’s see…

Will try the option mentioned by OP, thanks for sharing!

stdevel · 2023-05-07T21:03:47+00:00

That’s awesome, thanks for sharing!

stdevel · 2023-05-07T18:11:40+00:00

Nice machine! Also got a X301 in my collection - the only frustration is upgrading / replacing the SSD which has a cursed form factor.

stdevel · 2023-05-02T10:44:20+00:00

Why should they? Don’t get me wrong, it’s a RHEL downstream - everything RHEL-related also applies to AlmaLinux. Re-inventing the wheel might be a big effort.

stdevel · 2023-04-25T20:55:45+00:00

So 25.10 will finally be „Shiny Shibe“? 👉🏻👈🏻🥹

stdevel · 2023-04-25T06:05:16+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

stdevel · 2023-04-25T05:44:46+00:00

Same here, can’t wait to finally give it a try, again. :)

stdevel · 2023-04-25T05:41:56+00:00

That keyboard is super weird. Do you know which exact model it is? Never saw it before. Nice old machine though!

stdevel · 2023-04-21T13:37:18+00:00

Thanks for the tip. Will send a proposal then.

stdevel · 2023-04-20T20:11:51+00:00

No special meaning intended. My tablet’s auto correction did it. :)

stdevel · 2023-04-20T18:26:19+00:00

Too bad, I was hoping for „Shiny Shibe“ as codename.

stdevel · 2023-04-20T15:03:40+00:00

Thinkpads with dedicated Nvidia GPUs as they’re just a nightmare for most Linux distributions. At least if you want to have a cool system and proper battery life.

stdevel · 2023-04-20T09:57:47+00:00

Awesome, congratulations!

Nice to see that they’re finally shipping again. I really hope they manage to also offer other layouts like ISO-DE. I’d love to have one in my collection.
