You should try using a different Linux distro like Debian or Ubuntu.
For Terraria you might need Ubuntu, but Ubuntu is based off Debian so it might work there.

    @Badcatalex, I know what those are.
  • Badcatalex @ Badcatalex:
    ThinkPads are cheap btw
  • Badcatalex @ Badcatalex:
    eBay is full of them and as long as they don't have Computrace enabled (computer tracking stuff)
    they are great
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    The ones that are parts and/or not working are from what I can see.
  • Badcatalex @ Badcatalex:
    companies use them for three years or so
    before they are dumped on the market
  • Badcatalex @ Badcatalex:
    nah you can find lots of working ones if you look carefully
  • Badcatalex @ Badcatalex:
    but it depends on the gen
  • Badcatalex @ Badcatalex:
    T480 for example is from 2018 and is common nowadays
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I could prob look on a car boot to find any that is cheap.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I doubt it but who knows.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    eBay is more of the way to go.
