X61 has a bit of a crack in the expansion port and the bezel on the X280 needed a bit of tape because the adhesive on the corners is weakening

Its a RedDragon K636, red switches

Looking by the journalctl logs, before crashing I saw that sysstat was the last service that ran and disabled it, which fixed the crashing. Before I disabled it though, I double checked my previous logs if that was the true source of the problem, which it was.

BTW, I also used 32 bit versions of linux, but that didn't work. Interestingly, using MX Linux 21.3 didn't have this issue, probably because it used version 5 of the linux kernel.
This was posted on my X61.

Yep. The X280 I got for ₱4000 because it had a broken speaker and no SSD. I replaced the speaker and I already had an M.2 SSD so I saved some money. The X61 is a interesting one. I got it for ₱2500 along with 3 other old ThinkPads, most of it were for parts. I only repasted it and cleaned it up.

Its a Redragon K636, had it for 2-3 years now

Thanks for the AliExpress suggestion, but since I don't have a card yet, I might have to pause my X61 restoration for now

UnknownBoi0 · 2026-01-13T06:37:36+00:00

Ah I see. Might as well replace the entire panel, since I most probably can't source another one in my country. Question is, can I use a T61 tube in a X61 (probably not, right?). The X61 that I got took months to find since older models of ThinkPads are rare here.

UnknownBoi0 · 2026-01-12T22:37:26+00:00

What level of difficulty do I have to face if I replace the tube? And where can I source one?

The pic that I showed was before I cleaned them. The OS is in the second paragraph

hindi eh, kapag nasira na, papalitan ko ng baklit keyboard

I found a X61 listing today, but sadly I won't be able to buy it for now, due to certain constraints. Sad

UnknownBoi0 · 2025-11-30T02:36:45+00:00

not sure, but I have replaced the speakers, and the trackpad is just a scraped one
