I've got the same issue using Libreboot experimental 61 on my Lenovo Thinkpad T400.

how would i have to setup coreboot build (or say, .config) to get a firmware blob for my X60 that works (as in.. has graphics and boots the linux off my hard disc)? could i use latest libreboot and somehow plaster coreboot HEAD in there?

Instructions on how to rebase libreboot on the latest coreboot: https://libreboot.org/docs/maintain/index.html#updating_coreboot

thanks Calle!
these instructions are quite out of date though (-> do not work).
and for the few things i could correct myself, i don't know where i would do that, as i can't find this content in the libreboot-website git repo.

Here's what I did after talking to swiftgeek on #libreboot IRC:

• Downloaded coreboot git
• Downloaded the latest libreboot experimental
• cbfstool libreboot.rom extract -n fallback/payload -f grub-libre.elf -m x86
• cbfstool libreboot.rom extract -n config -f config -m x86
• cp libreboot/grub-libre.elf coreboot/payload.elf
• cp libreboot/config coreboot/.config
• cd coreboot
• make

I then flashed my X200 with the build/coreboot.rom

It boots. Closing the lid no longer gives me black screen of death. Instead, it doesn't suspend at all. Also, the backlight buttons no longer work. So not really the success I was hoping for.

Is there any point in trying some other version than coreboot@HEAD?

did you try to initiate suspend in an other way, and see what happens?
... ahh.. then you might not be able to even try to come back from it?

Fixed on recent libreboot stable (20160818) and current coreboot head.
