Are there any guides out there to do this? I would also be willing to pay if
its an involved modification.
That 768p screen is my biggest problem with the x230. I would love a super
high res screen, but the last time I tried to deal with scaling in linux it
didnt work out so well. Some distros it was OK, but some apps would still
give me a lot of trouble.
I think ideally Id like to stick with 1x scaling for the time being for
simplicity sake. My 13.3" xps has a 1080p screen, and that dpi is about as
tiny as I would go. I think at 12.5 inches 900p would be ideal.
On the other hand, 3200x1800 and scaling set to 2x should be easier than 1.25
or 1.5 scaling - but I have tried that on a friends XPS laptop (13.3" and
3200*1800) and I STILL had trouble with scaling. Most (native) apps scaled
nicely, but there was a few that were so tiny they were unusable. Yes I
probably could have spent more time getting those apps to scale better, but
Id like to avoid extra messing with settings if at all possible.
And my last rant - why does setting the native res on a 3840*2160 panel to
1080p somehow look worse than 1080p on a 1080p panel. Is there something Im
missing? It should just double all pixels, so everything should line up
nicely, and should just just as sharp as 1080 on a 1080 panel.
Have you tried flashing coreboot on your thinkpad yoga yet? I know you
mentioned no one has done it yet - any reason you havent tried? This to me
would be the biggest reason for wanting one of those devices, but I get why
you wouldnt want to try it yet (same reason I havent flashed my T400s yet).
