I wonder if this can help with the extremely irritating bug (intentional?) on the X270 where if you give it a third party 9-cell battery, it will raise CPU_PROCHOT all the damn time, and my processor would drop to below 1Ghz clock speeds.
Back when I used to have an X270 I had a shell script that ran on boot which poked a register to disable thermal throttling handling. Not at all ideal, but it made the machine usable in the absence of official Lenovo batteries which they stopped manufacturing pretty damn quickly.
Nice to finally know what was happening to my x270 after so many years. Well good thing it doesn't happen when connected to power nowadays is my home server
Possibly. Usually this is handled by the embedded controller, and not sure if that was reversed or not. You may be able to tristate the GPIO line that tells the CPU that a pin means PROCHOT, which would allow you to ignore the ECs attempts to do this.
because the x280 and x270 are similar enough I didn't need to try very hard to get it to post or boot a live USB to further investigate (effectively acting as a decent template for me to work off of)
The console viewing itself was provided by `cbmem -1`, which I could run via a NixOS live USB with nixpkgs#coreboot-utils
You can sometimes find the serial lines if you are careful. Otherwise you can use the flashrom to store the output, and read it back out after each failure. It is much easier to just poke around and find the serial if you can, either from schematics (it seems the author has these) or by hand with a lot of patience or board scrying.
I will only accept ethically sourced, free-trade blog posts, written by somebody with cherry MX browns on their hardware keyboard, written while riding on donkey in the jungles of Peru, being a digital nomad and not paying local income taxes, using NFT money to pay the bills, thank you very much!
I try to refrain from intervening into these discussions, because I don't really like to support comments that only ask "Is AI used??" without any careful reading of the text. On the other hand, you.
Go back to whatever useless bog you crawled out of to spray your hollow, smug irony straight at my unsuspecting face. Yes, the AI writing style is lifeless. Yes, so much that people hate it with a primal passion, because it feels draining to read a couple of sentences stretched thin across an 8-minute read of slopby an AI that has no voice of its own. AI is bland, boring, unfunny, uncontroversial, and asinine. Maybe it makes you feel immensely sad that your new toy cannot be used to replace the expression of the human experience, or, more likely, it makes you want to stomp your feet all over that we can't just automate that yet, but this won't happen. Not tomorrow and not in a hundred years.
Maybe you should read an AI post, you'll get why it's disliked.

I’ve messed around with porting coreboot on two desktop platforms but always had the benefit of a HW serial port…
