<p>Barcala: /* Arranging the wireless card: */</p> <hr /> <div>=== Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) ===<br /> <br /> I have followed the following steps to do the installation in the SL400 (2743 submodel)<br /> <br /> 1) Install Hardy Heron in its normal way.<br /> <br /> Several things did not work: acpi, wireless (Intel Wifi Link 5100) and video card (X4500 MHD).<br /> <br /> The ethernet card works and, although the video card seems to work, it hangs up when playing videos.<br /> <br /> == Arranging the video card: ==<br /> <br /> 1) Remove the packages {{path|xserver-xorg-video-i810}} and {{path|xserver-xorg-video-intel}} from the system. {{path|xserver-xorg-video-all}} will be removed also.<br /> <br /> 2) Install de package {{path|xserver-xorg-video-inte-2.4.0-melchiorre-5-i386.deb}} downloaded from http://melchiorre.wordpress.com/2008/07/31/driver-intel-240-deb-package/<br /> <br /> With this package the video card does not hang up any more when playing videos, but It seems like videos cannot be maximized on the screen.<br /> <br /> == Arranging the wireless card: ==<br /> <br /> Apparently it works in 2.6.28 kernel, which includes the driver, but sometimes I get authentication timed out messages which does not allow me to connect to my home wireless connection. I have made the following:<br /> <br /> 1) Download the Ubuntu kernel source:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|apt-get install linux-source}}<br /> <br /> 2) Decompress the .tar.bz2 file downloaded by the package located at {{path|/usr/src}}:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|bzip2 -d linux-source-2.6.27.8.tar.bz2}}<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|tar xvf linux-source-2.6.27.8.tar}}<br /> <br /> 3) Copy the configuration file from {{path|/boot}} to {{path|/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8}}, renaming it:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|cp /boot/config-2.6.24-19-generic /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8/.config}}<br /> <br /> 4) Do {{cmdroot|make menuconfig}} inside {{path|/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8}}<br /> <br /> 5) Activate the kernel options (make menuconfig):<br /> <br /> - For code optimization:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Core 2/newer Xeon|Processor family|Processor type and features||}}<br /> <br /> - For Sound card:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Sound card support|Device Drivers|||}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers|||}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers|}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build Realtek HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build Analog Device HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build IDT/Sigmatel HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build VIA HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build ATI HDMI HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build Conexant HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build C-Media HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build Silicon Labs 3054 HD-modem codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Enable generic HD-audio codec parser|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> <br /> - Necessary for wireless driver:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Netdevice multiple hardware queue support|Network device support|Device Drivers||}}<br /> <br /> - Select the iwl5000 driver also inside Wireless Section.<br /> <br /> 6) Compile and install the kernel the &quot;Debian way&quot; (http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch08s06.html.en)<br /> <br /> 7) Restart the computer choosing this new kernel at boot.<br /> <br /> 8) Download wireless microcode from http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/?n=downloads<br /> <br /> I downloaded {{path|iwlwifi-5000-ucode-5.4.A.11.tar.gz}} from &quot;show older releases&quot;.

I have made the following:<br /> <br /> 1) Download the Ubuntu kernel source:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|apt-get install linux-source}}<br /> <br /> 2) Decompress the .tar.bz2 file downloaded by the package located at {{path|/usr/src}}:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|bzip2 -d linux-source-2.6.27.8.tar.bz2}}<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|tar xvf linux-source-2.6.27.8.tar}}<br /> <br /> 3) Copy the configuration file from {{path|/boot}} to {{path|/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8}}, renaming it:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|cp /boot/config-2.6.24-19-generic /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8/.config}}<br /> <br /> 4) Do {{cmdroot|make menuconfig}} inside {{path|/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8}}<br /> <br /> 5) Activate the kernel options (make menuconfig):<br /> <br /> - For code optimization:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Core 2/newer Xeon|Processor family|Processor type and features||}}<br /> <br /> - For Sound card:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Sound card support|Device Drivers|||}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers|||}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers|}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build Realtek HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build Analog Device HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build IDT/Sigmatel HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build VIA HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build ATI HDMI HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build Conexant HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build C-Media HD-audio codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Build Silicon Labs 3054 HD-modem codec support|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Enable generic HD-audio codec parser|Intel HD Audio|PCI devices|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|Sound card support|Device Drivers}}<br /> <br /> <br /> - Necessary for wireless driver:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Netdevice multiple hardware queue support|Network device support|Device Drivers||}}<br /> <br /> - Select the iwl5000 driver also inside Wireless Section.<br /> <br /> 6) Compile and install the kernel the &quot;Debian way&quot; (http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch08s06.html.en)<br /> <br /> 7) Restart the computer choosing this new kernel at boot.<br /> <br /> 8) Download wireless microcode from http://intellinuxgraphics.org?n=downloads<br /> <br /> I downloaded {{path|iwlwifi-5000-ucode-5.4.A.11.tar.gz}} from &quot;show older releases&quot;. I suspect that {{path|iwlwifi-4965-ucode-228.57.2.21.tgz}} includes recent driver for 5100 card, but I am not sure, so I proceed with the 5000 one.<br /> <br /> 9) Decompress {{path|iwlwifi-5000-ucode-5.4.A.11.tar.gz}} and copy {{path|iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode}} to {{path|/lib/firmware}} and {{path|/lib/firmware/kernel-version}}, where kernel-version is the version of the new kernel compiled (in my case 2.6.24.3-wireless). I am not sure if it is needed this second copy. Perhaps with only one of them is sufficient.<br /> <br /> 10) Network Manager gave me some problems of strange timeouts which sometimes did not allow me to connect to wireless network, so I install wicd (http://wicd.sourceforge.net/). It is very simple to install into Ubuntu throw apt repositories.<br /> <br /> 11) Reboot the system.<br /> <br /> All must be working fine. Temperature, dynamic frequency, suspend and hibernate work also. Some extra keys of the keyboard and perhaps another hardware have not tested: bluetooth and webcam. I'll try in future.</div>

I have made the following:<br /> <br /> 1) Download the Ubuntu kernel source:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|apt-get install linux-source}}<br /> <br /> 2) Decompress the .tar.bz2 file downloaded by the package located at {{path|/usr/src}}:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|bzip2 -d linux-source-2.6.27.8.tar.bz2}}<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|tar xvf linux-source-2.6.27.8.tar}}<br /> <br /> 3) Copy the configuration file from {{path|/boot}} to {{path|/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8}}, renaming it:<br /> <br /> {{cmdroot|cp /boot/config-2.6.24-19-generic /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8/.config}}<br /> <br /> 4) Do {{cmdroot|make menuconfig}} inside {{path|/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.27.8}}<br /> <br /> 5) Activate the kernel options (make menuconfig):<br /> <br /> - For code optimization:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Processor type and features|Processor family|Core 2/newer Xeon||}}<br /> <br /> - For Sound card:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Device Drivers|Sound card support||||}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|||}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[M]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Build Realtek HD-audio codec support}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Build Analog Device HD-audio codec support}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Build IDT/Sigmatel HD-audio codec support}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Build VIA HD-audio codec support}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Build ATI HDMI HD-audio codec support}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Build Conexant HD-audio codec support}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Build C-Media HD-audio codec support}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Build Silicon Labs 3054 HD-modem codec support}}<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Sound card support|Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|PCI devices|Intel HD Audio|Enable generic HD-audio codec parser}}<br /> <br /> - Necessary for wireless driver:<br /> <br /> {{kernelconf||[*]|Device Drivers|Network device support|Netdevice multiple hardware queue support||}}<br /> <br /> - Select the iwl5000 driver also inside Wireless Section.<br /> <br /> 6) Compile and install the kernel the &quot;Debian way&quot; (http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch08s06.html.en)<br /> <br /> 7) Restart the computer choosing this new kernel at boot.<br /> <br /> 8) Download wireless microcode from http://intellinuxgraphics.org?n=downloads<br /> <br /> I downloaded {{path|iwlwifi-5000-ucode-5.4.A.11.tar.gz}} from &quot;show older releases&quot;. I suspect that {{path|iwlwifi-4965-ucode-228.57.2.21.tgz}} includes recent driver for 5100 card, but I am not sure, so I proceed with the 5000 one.<br /> <br /> 9) Decompress {{path|iwlwifi-5000-ucode-5.4.A.11.tar.gz}} and copy {{path|iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode}} to {{path|/lib/firmware}} and {{path|/lib/firmware/kernel-version}}, where kernel-version is the version of the new kernel compiled (in my case 2.6.24.3-wireless). I am not sure if it is needed this second copy. Perhaps with only one of them is sufficient.<br /> <br /> 10) Reboot the system.<br /> <br /> All must be working fine. Temperature, dynamic frequency, suspend and hibernate work also. Some extra keys of the keyboard and perhaps another hardware have not tested: bluetooth and webcam. I'll try in future.</div>

I'll try in future.</div>

<p>Barcala: /* Debian Stable (Edgy Etch) */</p> <hr /> <div>=== Ubuntu 7.10 ===<br /> The following features work out-of-the-box with Ubuntu 7.10:<br /> <br /> * 3D rendering<br /> * Hot keys: sound, brightness, keyboard light, monitor, suspend<br /> * LAN<br /> * WLAN<br /> * ACPI, battery monitor<br /> * Sound card<br /> * Bluetooth <br /> <br /> The following features don't work out-of-the-box:<br /> * suspend fails: seemingly due to the ipw3945 ethernet driver<br /> * Trackpoint's mouse wheel emulation<br /> <br /> Still not solved?<br /> * Bluetooth: Under Gnome I can not enable and disable bluetooth from linux. Have to run the windows program which controls bluetooth and enable it. After reboot it will remain enabled (the led indicates it). However there is a hardware switch which turns off all radio communications (including Bluetooth, Wireless Lan, and WAN (3G)), and there is also the possibility to disable each one of them separately from BIOS.<br /> ''Bluetooth can be enabled by $echo enable &gt; /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth''[[User:Bolle|Bolle]] 20:58, 28 December 2007 (CET)<br /> * 3G: Not tested.<br /> * Fingerprint reader: Not tried to install it. Suggestions about installation and use?<br /> <br /> <br /> For more information see [[Installation instructions for the ThinkPad X61|Installation instructions for the ThinkPad X61]].<br /> <br /> === Kubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) ===<br /> <br /> Used Kernel: 2.6.22-14-generic<br /> <br /> There are some subtle differences to the Ubuntu installation mentioned above, so I make a separate section. I also made a non-standard installation by using LVM over dm-crypt to get an entirely encrypted disk, except the /boot partition.<br /> <br /> The following features work out of the box:<br /> <br /> * LAN<br /> * WLAN<br /> * Power Management<br /> * Sound (without hotkey support!)<br /> * Bluetooth<br /> <br /> The following features did not work:<br /> <br /> * hibernate<br /> <br /> Entering and waking up from hibernation took a bit too long, giving me a bunch of too-fast-to-read USB errors on the console screen before shutting down. Notebook also stays blank screen mode after wakeup, until pressing the &quot;enter&quot; key to provoke a wrong password entry in the screensaver dialogue.<br /> <br /> * suspend to RAM<br /> <br /> Waking up from suspend to RAM does not work, the backlight of the screen is not reactivated. Need to reboot to reactivate.<br /> <br /> * hotkeys<br /> <br /> The hotkeys for adjusting the brightness, mute, volume up/down and {{ibmkey|ThinkVantage|#495988}} do not work. Using &quot;acpi_listen&quot; shows, that some of the keys are recognized, so Kubuntu does not interpret them correctly. Some keys are not recognized at all. Here is an overview:<br /> {| border=&quot;1&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;<br /> !Key pressed !! result <br /> |- <br /> |{{key|Fn}}{{key|Pos1}} (brightness up) || ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001010, video LCD0 00000086 00000000<br /> |-<br /> |{{key|Fn}}{{key|Ende}} (brightness down) || ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001011, video LCD0 00000087 00000000<br /> |-<br /> |Mute || first time: METHOD UCMS 00000000 00000000, after that: nothing <br /> |- <br /> |Volume down || first time: METHOD UCMS 00000000 00000000, after that: nothing<br /> |-<br /> |Volume up || first time: METHOD UCMS 00000000 00000000, after that: nothing<br /> |}<br /> <br /> However, adjusting brightness with KDE Powermanager does work, as well as adjusting volume using Kmix. You can also &quot;echo&quot; values into /proc/acpi/ibm/...<br /> <br /> * WWAN (UMTS)<br /> <br /> I have not tested it yet, I am still looking for a good UMTS flatrate.

<p>Barcala: /* Debian Stable (Edgy Etch) */</p> <hr /> <div>=== Ubuntu 7.10 ===<br /> The following features work out-of-the-box with Ubuntu 7.10:<br /> <br /> * 3D rendering<br /> * Hot keys: sound, brightness, keyboard light, monitor, suspend<br /> * LAN<br /> * WLAN<br /> * ACPI, battery monitor<br /> * Sound card<br /> * Bluetooth <br /> <br /> The following features don't work out-of-the-box:<br /> * suspend fails: seemingly due to the ipw3945 ethernet driver<br /> * Trackpoint's mouse wheel emulation<br /> <br /> Still not solved?<br /> * Bluetooth: Under Gnome I can not enable and disable bluetooth from linux. Have to run the windows program which controls bluetooth and enable it. After reboot it will remain enabled (the led indicates it). However there is a hardware switch which turns off all radio communications (including Bluetooth, Wireless Lan, and WAN (3G)), and there is also the possibility to disable each one of them separately from BIOS.<br /> ''Bluetooth can be enabled by $echo enable &gt; /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth''[[User:Bolle|Bolle]] 20:58, 28 December 2007 (CET)<br /> * 3G: Not tested.<br /> * Fingerprint reader: Not tried to install it. Suggestions about installation and use?<br /> <br /> <br /> For more information see [[Installation instructions for the ThinkPad X61|Installation instructions for the ThinkPad X61]].<br /> <br /> === Kubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) ===<br /> <br /> Used Kernel: 2.6.22-14-generic<br /> <br /> There are some subtle differences to the Ubuntu installation mentioned above, so I make a separate section. I also made a non-standard installation by using LVM over dm-crypt to get an entirely encrypted disk, except the /boot partition.<br /> <br /> The following features work out of the box:<br /> <br /> * LAN<br /> * WLAN<br /> * Power Management<br /> * Sound (without hotkey support!)<br /> * Bluetooth<br /> <br /> The following features did not work:<br /> <br /> * hibernate<br /> <br /> Entering and waking up from hibernation took a bit too long, giving me a bunch of too-fast-to-read USB errors on the console screen before shutting down. Notebook also stays blank screen mode after wakeup, until pressing the &quot;enter&quot; key to provoke a wrong password entry in the screensaver dialogue.<br /> <br /> * suspend to RAM<br /> <br /> Waking up from suspend to RAM does not work, the backlight of the screen is not reactivated. Need to reboot to reactivate.<br /> <br /> * hotkeys<br /> <br /> The hotkeys for adjusting the brightness, mute, volume up/down and {{ibmkey|ThinkVantage|#495988}} do not work. Using &quot;acpi_listen&quot; shows, that some of the keys are recognized, so Kubuntu does not interpret them correctly. Some keys are not recognized at all.
