Trisquel 7 runs on ThinkPad T450
ThinkPad T450:
CPU: Intel i5
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA 940M (may not work with 3D acceleration)
wireless card doesn't work.
Make sure you add these details to https://h-node.org/ :)
And run some tests on that graphics card! How well does the latest noveau work?
Too bad you can't get wifi man :( that really sucks.

its not too bad i don’t think you can replace the internet wifi card on this think pad as you cant install libreboot on it yet
but you can use a external usb wifi card
I've been using Trisquel 7.0 on a Lenovo T450s for a few months. I bought an external Penguin Wireless N USB Adapter for GNU / Linux from Think Penguin and it works great! I am using GNOME 3 as well and the graphics card does work with 3d acceleration.
intel Core i5
Intel Broadwell graphics

Thanks guys.
How do I test whether it works with 3D acceleration?
I am a translator!
glxinfo | grep direct
This is no longer true.
I am a translator!
care to explain yourself?
I take that was directed at me. I believe that used to be the method to find out. However for example I get direct rendering: yes as result but my wonkey old ATI card certainly provides me no 3d acceleration.

lembas: when I tried that on the lappy with acceleration it said yes. When I try it on a lappy without accel. it says no.
So, it appears to work indeed.
Here, see if one of the following will do -> http://www.upubuntu.com/2013/11/how-to-check-3d-acceleration-fps-in.html
For me without -i it says yes and with -i no. The devil as usual is in the details.
