heads VS Super-NT-Jailbreak

I downloaded the VGA ROM for my Thinkpad W530 for both the Intel IGPU and Nvidia Quadro K1000M using this and configured the build config to use them with the correct PCI ports (8086,0166 10de,0ffc). Everything works fine except the output for both the VGA and the mini DP port. Does anyone have any ideas of what I could be missing here?

You may be interested in Heads, which is available on Purism laptops under the name PureBoot. Though this really needs a coreboot-capable machine, I think, and isn't something you can just add to your existing UEFI boot chain.

You don't need to encrypt anything to verify those images, you just need to sign them. See how Heads does this.

Unfortunately there is also the Heads secure firmware: https://osresearch.net/ as well. Otherwise my vote would go to Heads. Liive OS could be pretty hard to optimize in a search engine, they'll think it's misspelled. Could call it "Miles" and just never ack the reference...

If you worried about malicious changes, there is the write lock protection feature in coreboot that prevents internal flashing. This would require you to flash externally whenever you want to update coreboot. If worried someone will also flash your BIOS externally, you may want to look into Heads

You may know there is a Jailbreak firmware created by the guy that made the firmware for Analogue that will allow you to play all non-special chip games and some special chip games from the console using a SD card, no cartridge needed! https://github.com/SmokeMonsterPacks/Super-NT-Jailbreak

Jailbreaking it is super easy. Here’s a link to the GitHub for thr jailbreak

The Super NT at least just uses the carts natively, with jailbroken firmware you can play some games that use special chips loaded from SD cards, provided you have the right bios files, otherwise you need to use real carts.

On Analogue's Super Nt, here is an existing sound effect error on Chrono Trigger.

The current jailbreak firmware is just a link to the file: https://github.com/SmokeMonsterPacks/Super-NT-Jailbreak

For anybody looking to do something similar but save some money, you can get most (but not all) of the functionality of this setup with just the Super Nt itself using the unofficial official jailbreak firmware (https://github.com/SmokeMonsterPacks/Super-NT-Jailbreak), which is made by the Super Nt's own developer. It lets you load ROMs from the SD card, and supports some (but not all) of the SNES enhancement chips.

Super NT jailbreak You download the jailbreak and write it to an sd card which goes into the sd slot on the side of the SNT and you then follow the firmware update instructions from analogue. It installs just like the stock firmware would.
