Coreboot now have support for the HP EliteBook 820 G2. This is great, but sadly the keyboard is for a person using Thinkpad keyboards forever not usable.
The Thinkpad X250 is the competitor to the HP EliteBook 820 G2. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Face-Off-HP-EliteBook-820-G2-vs-Lenovo-ThinkPad-X250-vs-Dell-Latitude-12-E7250.144831.0.html

The X250 also have a Full-HD IPS screen. This would also fix the problems many people have with the X230 and spend much time and effort to get a Full-HD IPS screen running in the X230.

Nico Huber have(had?) such a X250: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/23820/7#message-04cf9f804c1292f457c61c71e63eaddaff083202

Other coreboot developer also seem to have a X250: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/51179

Have someone taken a deeper look into the Thinkpad X250? Is there something special why suddenly the HP EliteBook 820 G2 got supported instead of a typical Thinkpad like it was the case for years at coreboot?
