Hi everyone :)
Minifree sell laptops with entirely free software, including the BIOS
replacement (libreboot).
Recently, I've decided to sell the X200 and X200 Tablet for much lower prices
than usual.
I've also decided to now offer the laptops with docking stations included at

I already have the feeling that you are trying to do most of the things by
yourself, which is great.
But don't give up. If you fail 10 times, try 11th time, with the hope of
succeeding, which is helping a lot.
Using guides are good, but sometimes outdated, or some critical parts aren't
I backup my files on servers and external drives.
eg.
projects -> git server
dotFiles -> also git server, with a readme to know where to put the files
music -> nextcloud
wallpaper/public images -> nextcloud
docs -> nextcloud
pictures -> external hdd 1
videos -> external hdd 2
mail -> mail server
Can you reboot or logout of your session? And lock screen, does those options
work?

this helps!
I'm looking into it. At present, I pack the routers into a 30x20x10cm box and
the package weighs about 1.5kg.
I currently use UPS like I do for the laptops, and the shipping cost is about
the same. That being said, these routers don't need as much padding as I use.
I could concievably pack

Hi everyone :)
Minifree already had the Libre WNDR3800 router on sale, for 50 EUR, coming
with a libre uboot and libreCMC preinstalled, making it a fully libre router.
For the christmas period, Minifree is now offering this at a discounted
price. The new price as of right now is 38 EUR.
btw shipping prices on minifree have also come down recently.
UK was 20 EUR, now it's 15
EU was 45 EUR, now it's 25
US/CA was 60, now 45
Rest of world is still 80 EUR as usual.
cool :)
Minifree is well-stocked at the moment. We have about 50 X200 Tablets flashed
and ready to ship. Plenty of X200 and T400 flashed too.
FSF will soon announce their FSF giving guide and sales will get pretty
hectic, so I and my worker are preparing in advance.
HI everyone :)
Minifree's line of FSF-endorsed Libreboot laptops, which come with a fully

Price is now reduced. Was 98 EUR, now 50 EUR. This is the final price
reduction.
Hey everyone :)
I listened to feedback, and concluded that the price was still too high.
Therefore, I've made a final price reduction: the router is now 50 EUR on
Minifree.
hey there :)
nice effort, though I just have to say one thing:
I took one glance at the website for libretrend and saw: "core i7"
Which means that these systems are proprietary, and not libre at all. They
come with the Intel Management Engine out of the box:
yeah the battery life is higher, since it's the same capacity but the x200
has a smaller screen. in idle usage, the screen is the most power consuming
part of the system
minifree doesn't currently accept bitcoin
@jxself i mean, to be fair, systemd is crap. i run it on all my systems
though without issue
btw the X200 and T400 are exactly the same performance-wise. same CPU and
GPU, same RAM. the only major difference is the keyboard size, screen size
and a few other physical aspects, but it's the same hardware inside
one other thing... these routers are really hard to get in europe. most of
them are in USA. so I import them in bulk from suppliers in the US. This
means that european customers who buy from minifree won't have to deal with
expensive USA-European shipping. Plus UK-European shipping is much
The wndr3800 as sold by Netgear already has a free bootloader (uboot) and
they provide source code. This can also be replaced by uboot_mod, but
freedom-wise this is unnecessary, though it may unlock more features. I'm
currently waiting on a large shipment of these routers, and I will be
thank you for your review :)
btw shipping times on minifree are really fast now. i was away in thailand
for a while and then had difficulty with initial surgery recovery.
me and my new employee have everything under wraps now. as of today, we have
a backlog on the T400 orders (11 orders)
Well yes they are refurbished. It's not possible to buy these routers new
anymore. However, they're in excellent condition. Routers tend to last many
years.
Yeah the price isn't that much higher than if you were to buy the router
yourself. If you're lucky you can get it for like 80 EUR. But then you have
to source it yourself and make sure it's the right version (not all of them

Hi Beformed,
Good job flashing a T400s on your own! To have WiFi and Fn keys working, run
pm-suspend, close the lid, wait 1 minute, open the lid and enjoy.
Happy hacking!

it should work. flash it and see what happens
The X200T documentation is virtually non-existent in Libreboot, since it's
the same schematic and board design for the most part.
The digitizer needs to be documented, as you quite rightly point out.
The flashing process also needs to be documented (there is an incomplete

Minifree has been selling this for a while now. It's a completely libre

Eemeli, could you document this on libreboot.org? Libreboot docs are mostly

If you have some X200 Tablets and you want Libreboot on them, you could send

Hopefully the FSF RYF announcement will be out soon.
Some might have it, but I'm not currently focusing on that. You could mention
it in the textbox on the checkout page, and I'd see if I have one that has
it. Some X200 Tablets have it, some don't, according to thinkwiki.
Hi everyone :)
Libreboot is a fully free (as in freedom) BIOS replacement, which initializes
the hardware and loads your operating system. Minifree is known in the
Trisquel community for providing laptops with this preinstalled alongside
Trisquel.
As of today, Minifree has launched a new
Hi everyone :)
Trisquel 8 was recently released. This is an announcement to let everyone
know: Minifree's FSF-endorsed Libreboot-preinstalled laptops now have
Trisquel 8 instead of 7.
This comes alongside our recent heavy price cuts, for all products:
Oh, one more thing I forgot to mention in the original post. Minifree now
provides *2* batteries, per laptop, by default.
Hi everyone :)
The Libreboot X200/T400 laptops come with Trisquel pre-installed, by default.
They also come with Libreboot installed, which is a completely free/libre
BIOS replacement. These systems are endorsed by the Free Software Foundation.
All of the hardware is fully supported by
To make matters worse, the ways people previously obtained media involved
using a particular protocol that had free software clients available for.
Just us now and flash the firmware. You'll be free.
In my opinion, there isn't really much difference between the X200/X200S,
though the latter does have lower-power CPUs as previously discussed.
It's about the same size.
Hi Pyraman,
I am uncertain as to the progress on that, though this is something that I
believe damo22 and paulk both have worked on. You can contact them on
Freenode IRC. The latter is in #libreboot, and damo22 hangs out in both
#coreboot and #librecore
The above comment of mine refers
In my opinion, there is little difference. The battery life on X200S *is*
higher than X200, but not by much. In practise, you won't notice any
difference.
If I were to sell the X200S, then it would cost much more than the X200 due
to the extra complication in flashing it (X200S requires
Actually now that you mention it, if I recall correctly, that CPU may not
even be supported by libreboot.
See: https://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:X200s
As far as I know, it's actually the SL9400 that is supported in libreboot.
There are two modes is the chipset X200 uses: low- or
Yes, this is a level of miscommunication: I probably meant X200 laptops, so
"X200s" probably meant "more than a single X200 thinkpad". For clarity, I
always say X200S (uppercase S) when referring to the singular ThinkPad X200S
product.
I confirm that Minifree does not sell the X200S.
The above statement from amrprznu is false.
The price is lower than typical/average. Usually it's at least 300 EUR (plus
shipping and VAT) on the site, for the base model. It's currently 248 EUR.
SU9400 is from the X200S, which Minifree doesn't sell. This is the X200,
which uses different CPUs than the X200S.
Yes. Minifree ships internationally. If you wish to pay in another currency,
simply convert the EUR price to USD (via xe.com) and pay that.
The reason Minifree's prices are in EUR is because we're based in Europe, and
target the EU mainland. But Minifree ships internationally. We can take
As I write this post, it's 2PM in the UK on 22 December 2017.
The final batch of pre-christmas shipments went out today. UPS will resume
their operations in my area on 27 December 2017. I'm waiting until then to
make new shipments.
3D printed keycaps for X200/T400 would be nice, with the user's own choice of
symbols on the keycaps. Then native dvorak would be possible. It would also
make it cheaper to get native keyboards in almost any layout.
Trisquel is still a nice distro, even if you use Trisquel 7. You can update
to the latest linux-libre from third party repos e.g. freesh, or build your
own modern kernels. You can also use Ubuntu PPAs for certain things
(free/libre packages, backported to Ubuntu 14.04, which is what Trisquel
That's OK :)
#libreboot IRC on freenode can help you flash it, if you get stuck. Several
"libreboot installation services" are also available. There is a list on
https://libreboot.org/suppliers.html
For Dvorak, we simply place stickers over the keys of a Qwerty keyboard. This
changes the symbols so that the keyboard is visibly Dvorak.
The keys on a thinkpad are oddly shaped, such that swapping the keys isn't
possible. I've contemplated creating my own native keyboards, since I'm a
25 eur for native keyboard for other layouts, e.g. german, french, usa, etc.
For Dvorak it's 5 EUR. That pays for stickers/overlays on top of the keys.
Hi everyone :)
Minifree has recently (re-)launched its Libreboot X200 product. This is a
completely libre laptop, which comes with 100% free software by default, from
the BIOS to the operating system. It comes with the free Libreboot[1] boot
firmware and Trisquel GNU+Linux by default.

Godwins law aside, let's not go down that road.

Calher, I know you mean well, but please let's not re-escelate things.
This is not a war worth having. The fighting has stopped, and that's all that
matters.
Hi calher,
I apologize for this oversight.
If this issue still affects you, here's how to rectify it:
* dump the ROM using flashrom
* extract grub.cfg using cbfstool
* change "keymap ukqwerty" in grub.cfg to "keymap ukdvorak" (I recall that I
shipped you UK Dvorak)
* reinsert the grub.cfg
The fifth rule is, one flash chip at a time
The best revenge is to be nice, so that everyone wins.
The purpose of my peace offer is to prevent such incidences as in this thread
in the future.
bandicooty98 I put an end to it all. See end of thread. I offered a deal with
the other companies so that we don't be hostile towards each other, and
instead compete in a friendly manner more or less, instead of attacking each
other.
Minifree is VAT registered and I understand the mechanics.
Yes, but import tax in many countries is lower than VAT in the typical EU
country. From what I've seen, countries typically charge something like 10%,
or less, sometimes slightly higher. VAT is relatively high in the EU.
I really hope Tiberiu accepts it. Even if he doesn't, I'm sure as heck going
to stay out of his way from now on.
All this fighting has been completely pointless. It alienates our customer
base, which then hurts both of our companies. Not to mention, we were both
being completely

I do actually try to provide the best possible service. But yes, I apologize
fully for me behaviour towards you in this thread.
Once again, I take full responsibility. If you wish your order be refunded,
then I'm happy to provide one (as I always have been). Please send me your
wiring
Another idea: why not do a Christmas Giving Guide on libreboot.org, every
year? Similar to the FSF one, but focused entirely on Libreboot (FSF one also
covers other devices).
It's probably too late to do one this year, but we could do it next year.
Tiberiu, I'm serious. I believe we would
If the deal is agreed on, I'm going to call it the united federation of

Literally.
