@[email protected] yeah, that's what I know for like a decade...
Also it's not a simple #VendorLock but a #Whitelist of PCI-IDs, MAC Adress- and IMEI Number Ranges, so it's not enough to have i.e. a #Lenovo-rebranded #Fibocom #850GL which is a rebadged #Intel #XMM7360, but only the version offered for i.e. the #ThinkPad #P15v will be accepted and initialized.

@stdevel @bradlinder that is sadly not the truth anymore.
Despite being "#UbuntuCertified" absolute basics like the #WWAN module didn't wotk at all on a work issued #ThinkPad #P15v.
Neither them nor #Canonical nor #Fibocom (#850GL WWAN Card) nor #Intel (#XMM7360 is the chipset of said card) felt responsible to fix it.Not gonna talk about #nvidia being shitty again on that occasion...

@whitekiba Klar - nur boten die jenes Produkt damit an...
Nicht dass ich nicht so oder so Support erwarte wenn Hardware als "Certified for #Ubuntu" gelistet ist...
@ubuntuHab' mich ja schon zur #Fibocom #850GL / #Intel #XMM7360 in nem #Thinkpad #P15v auf :birdsite: :twitter: ausgekotzt und wie Weder Fibocom noch Intel noch Lenovo sich zuständig fühlten...
Und wegen Lenovo kann ich nicht einfach das WWAN-Modem durch was gescheites tauschen, weil Whitelisting der PCI-ID...

@malcircuit Yeah, #Debian is masochist distro in that regard.
I explicitly chose #Ubuntu LTS 20.04 because the device was officially supported.
Still I'll stay mad for the refusal of #Lenovo, #Fibocom & #Intel to provide drivers for the integrated #WWAN modem:
Fibocom #850GL - which is just a rebadged Intel #XMM7360...
Because I know drivers for it exist - just like Intel refusing to release the Driver for the #GMA500 aka. #ImaginationTech PowerVR SGX GPU known als #Poulsbo...
