I don't know how to get the drm debug sent to ethernet; perhaps someone
else does?

Btw, can you send along the output of dmidecode? I'm wondering what
version of the BIOS you've got. We've seen some pretty strange behaviour
on X201s with earlier BIOS versions which have been fixed with newer
versions.

For comparison, my X201s says:

# dmidecode 2.9
SMBIOS 2.6 present.
78 structures occupying 2868 bytes.
Table at 0x000E0010.

Handle 0x0000, DMI type 0, 24 bytes
