=== Linux Installation ===

As of 2010-02-14 the following problems exist with the W510 under Linux:

* Suspend not implemented yet in USB 3.0 (xhci) driver - system cannot suspend unless driver is unloaded first
* nVidia FX 880M with any current release driver will show a "fuzzy screen" after a console switch or logout/login - fixed in 195.36.03 beta
* Resume results in corrupted display objects with kernel < 2.6.33 and/or driver less than 195.36.03
* System can only resume from sleep once - acpi related kernel crash occurs on resume (but system continues to operate), next resume shows BIOS screen and hangs
* Audio intermittent
* No support for display brightness controls when using binary video driver
* Wired networking stuck at 10Mbit without manual change using ethtool. For Ubuntu Karmic this can easily be fixed by manually downloading and installing the [http://bit.ly/bTvbWx e1000e driver from Intel].'''

Workarounds:'''

* On Ubuntu Karmic, Wireless can be enabled by installing linux-backport-modules-karmic. This adds missing firmware for 6000-series cards.
* All Versions: System cannot suspend unless <nowiki>SUSPEND_MODULES="xhci"</nowiki> is added to /etc/pm/config.d/unload_modules (may need to create this file) Note that this does not resolve the "crash on second resume" problem.

=== Hardware notes ===
* The W510 ships with a large (nearly doubled size of the old 90W) 135W power supply. However, it is possible to plug old (90W) power supplies, but they get rather warm. Upon boot there's a notification message, that a power supply with reduced performance is connected.
