You can run a free OS pretty effortless, but when wanting 100% free software, you have to dig deeper and replace the proprietary BIOS firmware.

It seems NovaCustoms offer some spareparts. I wonder if the ones not explicitly stating NV4xMZ can be used on your device as well.
No the NV41MZ for example has no numpad. Its the compact 14in model which I would always choose for my tasks. Maybe not all, but it was the only clevo on like all Europes Ebay. Literally shipped it in from Great Britain
That’s unfortunate.
Honestly, I haven’t done a lot of business on Ebay. So, I don’t know a lot on how much cheaper you might get devices from there. Though, I wonder if it’s a lot cheaper than say this device.
Damn good find! Not expensive, about double the price I paid but still very reasonable.
Very funny, they have a Tux bootsplash logo in their Bios??
And the BIOS really is great, I will miss that on Coreboot I guess. But all the necessary features should be there.
Oh lol, that’s a considerable difference. Though I suppose the Intel CPUs on your device probably aren’t 12th gen?
Who offers that :P ? Did I somehow miss that?
coreboot FTW!
Thanks, true! The people from Novacustom are very nice.
😉
Agreed. They definitely are.
