Librebooting the ThinkPad T480


Muh freedumbs on muh hardware!

Some legendary figure called Mate Kukri wrote this to exploit a bug in the Intel Management Engine(you can read up on why it is evil here). Supports 60 and 48hz and is quite bright N140HCG-GQ2/GR2: no mounting brackets, has enough clearance, 100%sRGB, 30pin eDP, non-touch, IGZO, has pretty damn bad backlight bleed, is 400 nit but quite dim, and is 1920x1080. LiteOn (FRU 01HX459 for backlit): This one has the snappiest keyfeel, relatively short travel and slightly MacBook keyboard like, but still very comfortable to type on.
