Libreboot on a ThinkPad T60 with ATI Graphics?
Hello, I was wondering if it is possible to libreboot a ThinkPad T60 that has ATI graphics? I have been researching it and people are say both yes and no... Still not sure if it’s possible.

As far as I know, you can't because video bios on ATI have copyright. So, no "libre" video bios.

It is theoretically possible, however no one has reverse engineered the ATI VGABIOS, whereas they have for the Intel VGABIOS (or it was open to begin with; not sure which).

What is free software and why is it so important for society?
(2022) Actively on the lookout for for 15" T60 FlexView / Hydis LED displays and parts, for my own usage. Kindly PM me your demands if you are willing to part with anything.

Re: Libreboot on a ThinkPad T60 with ATI Graphics?
There is native initialization for Intel graphics (probably based on the chipset documentation provided by Intel), but none for ATI, so you really need the ATI VGA BIOS.
Planned Purchase: T480s i5-8350 FHD Touch
