This report describes the installation and customization of Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04) on a Thinkpad X60 (6363) Tablet.
Contents
Installing without CD-Rom
I considered going the simple way and created a bootable usbstick with UNetbootin. Choose Ubuntu "live" (9.04) and all the required data is downloaded automagically and a proper stick is built.
What works out-of-the-box
- Suspend to disk
- Suspend to RAM
- Atheros Wifi (madwifi)
- Fn Hotkeys
- Intel video driver: fancy 3D compositing is enabled
- Bluetooth
- Ethernet
- Wacom stylus input
What does not work out-of-the-box
Automatic screen rotation on swivel
Check out and build this repository:
bzr branch lp:~karl.hegbloom/tabuntu/tablet-screen-rotation-support cd tablet-screen-rotation-support dpkg-buildpackage cd .. sudo dpkg -i tablet-screen-rotation-support_0.1.8_i386.deb
Edit sudoers file...
visudo
... add this line..
%video ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/setkeycodes
... and add your user to the 'video' group.
sudo adduser $USER video
