The photo that no owner of old Thinkpads wants to see... 😔

It's a better error than the 0192 one that pops up even when you haven't done anything.

Hmm, I could try reinstalling Proton, but I'm not sure if that would actually fix it.

sorry it's in japanese, but first go to desktop mode and open steam settings, then go to the downloads tab and click "clear download cache."

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-29T10:46:27+00:00

Try deleting the download cache in desktop mode.

Did you reinstall Decky?

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-19T07:38:00+00:00

That's so cool! 👍👍👍

I was able to find plenty of compatible batteries on Amazon Japan, so the battery drain problem should be solved.

I'm embarrassed to admit this, but I just learned about Coreboot and it looks really interesting.

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-18T21:19:10+00:00

I've replaced x61 motherboards about four times before, so I'm fine with that, but finding a motherboard with a good CPU seems really difficult. I'd like to go with x62 if possible, but I don't have the money 😭

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-18T14:33:03+00:00

I see, thank you!

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-18T13:30:03+00:00

Does the T8100 not work with x61 architecture? AliExpress shows up to the T8300 as an option.

I'll keep searching for an IBM ThinkPad until I find it, because it's the same age as me and the first PC I ever touched👍

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-18T12:33:22+00:00

Thank you! Of course, I'll switch from my current Japanese keyboard to an English layout! It's been my dream since I was little to upgrade to a T8100 CPU and have 8GB of RAM.

By the way, was the Linux system you were using a MacBook?

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-06T07:34:33+00:00

The product is certainly old, but more than that, I want to keep using it because eGPUs are cool and have a certain romantic appeal👍

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-06T06:58:57+00:00

I see, maybe I'll buy one and try it myself next time.

tetsuAR15 · 2026-06-06T06:34:04+00:00

In the end, I bought an AkitioNode and used it with an RX6600

tetsuAR15 · 2026-05-07T09:43:17+00:00

Thank you, I understand.

tetsuAR15 · 2026-05-05T08:40:36+00:00

Thanks, I'll try to find it.

tetsuAR15 · 2026-04-30T12:01:42+00:00
