83.99.47.112: where to report problems?

I'm wondering where the place for submitting bug reports about this particular installation is... When editing an entry, I get an error message about an SQL problem, but things seem to work fine.

=== Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900 ===
This is an Intel video adapter

=== Features ===
* Chipset: Intel 915G/915GV/910GL Express
* PCI ID: 8086:2592
* Uses up to 128MB of main memory

=== Linux X.Org driver ===
This chip is supported by the 'i810' driver as part of the X.Org distribution
<p>
For '''DRI-Support''', you may have to install the latest Drivers from [http://dri.freedesktop.org/snapshots/ DRI Snapshot] you need following files:<br>
''common-<CurrentVersion>-linux.i386.tar.bz2<br>
i915-<CurrentVersion>-linux.tar.bz2''<br>
Extract both in the same Directory and run install.sh<br>
After that restart your X-Server and enjoy OpenGL-Support ;-)
</p>

<p>
At least on a T43, you also want to add acpi_sleep=s3_bios to the kernel command line (edit your LILO or GRUB configuration file to do that), in order to make sure that Xorg continues to work after a suspend/resume cycle.
</p>

=== Linux Intel driver ===
You can find Linux drivers for this card on [http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/linux/index.htm Intel's site]. The site offers much information about how to install this card on many distributions, mainly Red Hat and SuSe.

==== ThinkPad LCD ====
Display on the internal LCD works as long as you set the monitor settings correct.

==== External VGA port ====

==== SVideo port ====
??
==== DVI port ====
DVI is not supported with this video adapter

=== Linux kernel Framebuffer driver ===
This chip will work with either the 'vesa' or 'intelfb' driver as part of any recent 2.4 or 2.6 kernel.

IBM Integrated Bluetooth IV with 56K Modem (BMDC-3)

83.99.47.112: add note on rmmoding usb modules to have bluetooth after suspend/resume

=== IBM Integrated Bluetooth IV with 56K Modem (BMDC-3) ===
This is a combination Bluetooth and Modem Adapter that is installed in a CDC slot.
=== Bluetooth Features ===
* Chipset: Broadcom
* USB VID/PID: 0A5C:201E
=== Modem Features ===
* Chipset: Conexant
* AC'97 Modem

=== IBM Partnumbers ===
IBM FRU PN: 39T0022 ($37.50 in July 2005)

This part takes the place of the 56K Modem board.
It requires a Bluetooth antenna, and some ThinkPads built without Bluetooth already have the antenna installed -- the antenna wire may be found disconnected and taped under the Modem board.

In addition to the Modem/BT module, a Bluetooth Thinkpad also uses an extra indicator LED below the LCD display, and another indicator LED on the top of the lid. To see these two LEDs, two new clear plates are required. The entire set of replacement sticker plates can be ordered as FRU 26R8409 ($12 as of July 2005). (formerly FRU: 13R2455)

=== Also known (in IBM literature) as.... ===
*

=== Linux Bluetooth driver ===

The Bluetooth device is implemented using USB and can be enabled or disabled with the {{key|Fn}}{{key|F5}} key combination; enabling / disabling bluetooth leads to USB connect and disconnect events.

Bluethooth can also be enabled or disabled using [[ibm-acpi]].

Some problems have been reported using bluetooth after a suspend/resume cycle on the T43. These problems can be mitigated by unloading the USB kernel modules (uhci_hcd, ehci_hcd, hci_usb) before the machine is put to sleep, and by re-loading these modules when the machine wakes up again.

=== Linux Modem driver ===
Although, the [http://www.smlink.com/ Smartlink] driver for Agere modems is able to communicate with the modem via AT commands, it cannot dial out (contradicting reports welcome!).

If your favourite distribution does not include a hsfmodem driver (search for "hsfmodem" or "Conexant"), you can try the one from Linuxant: http://www.linuxant.com/drivers (14k free as in beer, 56k+Fax license 15$, they explain this policy under: http://www.linuxant.com/store/faq.php )
