Beschreibung:

Lenovo uses a bios whitelist to prevent the installing of 3rd party wifi and 3G cards in the mini-pcie slot. The wifi does not work. It additionally failed to properly shut down under my gnewsense installation. It had to be hard-shutdown every time, as it would freeze while shutting down. So, shutdown problems and wifi issues mean that this thing deserves a D on gnewsense.

I will provide the lspci data later on at some point unless I forget.
