Not sure of this is a Libreboot or Kernel issue but my power indicator on my t60 goes out if I reboot Trisquel 10. Has anyone come across this and resolved?

The power indicator is handled by the embedded controller as far as I know. Did you update your EC before flashing libreboot?

Nope. Assuming that's the reason why, is there anything I can do?

Seems odd as releases upto 10 doesn't have this - the only quirk I found. However I have come across

OK. I didn't save the BIOS backup before flashing

Hmmm just tried booting off a live USB of Xubuntu 20.04 and installed on a X60 with no power LED issues.

I maybe barking up the wrong tree but Xubuntu 20.04 on the X200 does not have the power LED issue. But Trisquel 10 on the same X200 does.

Xubuntu 20 / uname -a reveals

Linux ajh-ThinkPad-X200 5.13.0-39-generic #44~20.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Mar 24 16:43:35 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm guessing Trisquel being a more cautious means the fix will be applied in time with updates
