Google Does Coreboot For "Stout" Chromebook
Posted by Michael Larabel on March 18, 2013
Google has published Coreboot support for the Stout Chromebook.
Stout is their codenane for the Lenovo X131e notebook shipped as a Chromebook. The Lenovo X131e Chromebook features a 1366x768 display, Intel Celeron CPU, and 7.5 hour battery life. For a $450+ notebook, it isn't too impressive but at least it's another Coreboot-enabled product.
The Stout support came with this commit.
More interesting than Stout is the Chromebook Pixel support.
