Thanks Scott, I've followed your instructions and everything seems to be working well on my x200. I'll let you know if I experience the period locking you mentioned. We both get this error:
error: [drm:pid0:intel_pipe_config_compare] *ERROR* mismatch in adjusted_mode.flags(DRM_MODE_FLAG_PHSYNC) (expected 0, found 1) pipe state doesn't match! Any idea what it is or how to solve it? I also tried the latest 6.1 snapshot, but it persists. I also get a "RTC BIOS diagnostic error 4<invalid_time>" I'm not sure what to make of, wondering if NTP sync will fix or not.
