##* The I/O scheduler default in Karmic is CFG. This seems to be the cause for frequent system lag here. The anticipatory scheduler has proven to give a more responsive ##system under high I/O load:
##** {{cmdroot|apt-get install sysfsutils}}
##** add to /etc/sysfs.conf: ''sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler = anticipatory''

##* Harddisk Active Protection System works after following http://www.h-bomb.nl/active-protection-in-ubuntu-9-10
## anti Theft
## security chip

=== Does not work ===

##* Suspend/Resume: There seems to be a bug in the BIOS which prevents the second resume causing a reboot (which will hang at the ThinkPad splash screen). Aparently Lenovo is ##working on it and a new BIOS will be released by end of April 2010 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/532374)

##* USB does not work after suspend/resume (Probably related to the other suspend/resume bug)

Installing Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) on a ThinkPad T61

2010-01-01T19:26:03Z

DrGnome vumSee: /* Tested: Worked "out of the box" */

{{HELP|We need help testing the remaining hardware}}

= General Information =
Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) was released on 29 October 2009.

= Hardware Support Details =

== Untested ==
'''Modem:''' unknown

'''FireWire (IEEE1394): works by default''' unknown

== Tested: Worked "out of the box" ==
'''Webcam:''' works

'''Video 2D/3D '''
* '''NVidia (Quadro NVS 140M):''' works (needs proprietary driver for hardware acceleration)
* '''Intel (GMA X3100):''' works

'''WiFi'''
* '''Intel PRO/Wireless 4965AGN:''' works
* '''Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG:''' works
* '''ThinkPad 11a/b/g (Atheros):''' works with ath5k driver (in upgrade from 9.04, had to add ath5k module to /etc/modules for autoloading). When upgrading from 9.04, the ath5k driver may be blacklisted and hence will not load the driver for the wireless card. To fix this, open /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ath_pci.conf in your favorite editor and comment out the line "blacklist ath5k"
* '''ThinkPad 11a/b/g/n (Atheros):''' PRO/Wireless 4965 AG tested and works by default
* '''Front switch (airplane mode):''' works by default

'''Ethernet (Intel Gigabit):''' works

'''Special Keys (volume, Fn-, {{ibmkey|ThinkVantage|#495988}}):'''
* ThinkVantage button: go to ''System'' -> ''Preferences'' -> ''Keyboard Shortcuts'' and assign a task to it.
*Fn-F5 (Wireless/Bluetooth): works by default
*Fn-F8 (Enable/Disable touchpad): works by default
*Fn.F4 (Sleep button) works by default with Ubuntu and proprietary NVidia driver
{{HELP|Fn-F4 The sleep button does still does not under Kubuntu Jaunty 9.10. The setup below does not seem to work.}}
*Fn-F4 (Sleep button): To get sleep button working create {{path|/etc/acpi/events/lenovo-sleep}} and add the following to it:
<pre>
event=ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001004
action=/etc/acpi/sleep.sh
</pre>

'''Touchpad:''' works

'''Touchpoint:''' works but see below for scrolling

'''ACPI'''
* '''Suspend:''' works running the restricted 185 nvidia driver, and on intel
* '''Hibernate:''' works, though not as smoothly as in previous releases
{{HELP|Some machines are requiring a double-resume from suspend. If the machine suspends while plugged in then is resumed while unplugged it will go back to sleep and have to be resumed again. Suggestions?}}

'''Bluetooth:''' works by default

'''DVD Drive'''
* '''Ultrabay Slim Super Multi-Burner Drive :''' works
* '''Ultrabay Slim DVD-ROM Drive:''' works
* '''Ultrabay Slim CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo II Drive:''' burning and reading CD's works. Untested on reading DVD

'''Audio (AD1984 HD)''': works
* '''Headphones:''' works
* '''Microphone:''' works

'''Card Reader:''' works but Ubuntu will not suspend (the screen blanks and it hangs) if a SD card mounted. This didn't happen w/ Jaunty.

== Tested: Needed tweaking to obtain full functionality ==
=== Enabling Trackpoint scrolling ===
To get vertical/horizontal scrolling working create {{path|/etc/hal/fdi/policy/mouse-wheel.fdi}} and add the following to it:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.product" string="TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint">
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheel" type="string">true</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheelButton" type="string">2</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.ZAxsisMapping" type="string">4 5</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.Emulate3Buttons" type="string">true</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
</pre>
You then have to restart either X or GDM. Restarting HAL didn't work for me, a restart did the trick though.

=== Enabling multi-touch touchpad ===
To get get the multi-touch on the touchpad working (two-finger scrolling, etc) create {{path|/etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi}} and add the following to it:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
<merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">synaptics</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">On</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateTwoFingerMinZ" type="string">90</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.VertTwoFingerScroll" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.HorizTwoFingerScroll" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton1" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton2" type="string">3</merge> 
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton3" type="string">2</merge> 
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
</pre>
Then restart HAL with:

{{cmduser|sudo service hal restart}}

Instructions courtesy of [http://ubuntu-snippets.blogspot.com/2009/03/multi-touch-for-anyall-synaptics.html ubuntu snippets].

{{HELP|Not working for me.}}

=== Enabling the fingerprint reader ===

Install the ''thinkfinger-tools'' and ''libpam-thinkfinger'' packages then execute:

{{cmduser|sudo /usr/lib/pam-thinkfinger/pam-thinkfinger-enable}}

to enable the fingerprint reader. To capture the user's fingerprint run:

{{cmduser|tf-tool --acquire $USERNAME}}

you can then verify it with:

{{cmduser|tf-tool --verify}}

=== Fix for fingerprint reader getting too hot ===

Use the last script from [http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_enable_the_fingerprint_reader_with_ThinkFinger#Fix_for_the_fingerprint_reader_getting_too_hot here], but note that in Karmic, the correct path is: {{path|/sys/class/usbmon/usbmon*/device/usb*/*}}

=== Install HDAPS - IBM Active Protection System Linux Driver ===
To install the Active Protection System execute the following commands:

{{cmduser|sudo cp /etc/modules /etc/modules_backup}}

{{cmduser|sudo aptitude install tp-smapi-source}}

{{cmduser|sudo module-assistant prepare tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo module-assistant auto-install tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo modprobe tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo aptitude install hdapsd}}

{{cmduser|echo 'tp-smapi' <nowiki>|</nowiki> sudo tee -a /etc/modules}}

=== Popping Sound with Intel sound card ===
You might be hearing a popping sound with an Intel sound card. A temporary solution exists for this [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/433782 known bug].

Open a terminal:

{{cmduser|sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf}}

And comment the last line called "options snd-hda-intel power_save=10". Basically, this is how the line should look after editing it:

<pre>
#options snd-hda-intel power_save=10 power_save_controller=N
</pre>

== Tested: Needed tweaking to obtain full functionality ==
=== Enabling Trackpoint scrolling ===
To get vertical/horizontal scrolling working create {{path|/etc/hal/fdi/policy/mouse-wheel.fdi}} and add the following to it:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.product" string="TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint">
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheel" type="string">true</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheelButton" type="string">2</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.ZAxsisMapping" type="string">4 5</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.Emulate3Buttons" type="string">true</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
</pre>
You then have to restart either X or GDM. Restarting HAL didn't work for me, a restart did the trick though.

=== Enabling multi-touch touchpad ===
To get get the multi-touch on the touchpad working (two-finger scrolling, etc) create {{path|/etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-x11-synaptics.fdi}} and add the following to it:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.touchpad">
<merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">synaptics</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.SHMConfig" type="string">On</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateTwoFingerMinZ" type="string">90</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.VertTwoFingerScroll" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.HorizTwoFingerScroll" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton1" type="string">1</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton2" type="string">3</merge> 
<merge key="input.x11_options.TapButton3" type="string">2</merge> 
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
</pre>
Then restart HAL with:

{{cmduser|sudo service hal restart}}

Instructions courtesy of [http://ubuntu-snippets.blogspot.com/2009/03/multi-touch-for-anyall-synaptics.html ubuntu snippets].

{{HELP|Not working for me.}}

=== Enabling the fingerprint reader ===

Install the ''thinkfinger-tools'' and ''libpam-thinkfinger'' packages then execute:

{{cmduser|sudo /usr/lib/pam-thinkfinger/pam-thinkfinger-enable}}

to enable the fingerprint reader. To capture the user's fingerprint run:

{{cmduser|tf-tool --acquire $USERNAME}}

you can then verify it with:

{{cmduser|tf-tool --verify}}

=== Fix for fingerprint reader getting too hot ===

Use the last script from [http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_enable_the_fingerprint_reader_with_ThinkFinger#Fix_for_the_fingerprint_reader_getting_too_hot here], but note that in Karmic, the correct path is: {{path|/sys/class/usbmon/usbmon*/device/usb*/*}}

=== Install HDAPS - IBM Active Protection System Linux Driver ===
To install the Active Protection System execute the following commands:

{{cmduser|sudo cp /etc/modules /etc/modules_backup}}

{{cmduser|sudo aptitude install tp-smapi-source}}

{{cmduser|sudo module-assistant prepare tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo module-assistant auto-install tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo modprobe tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo aptitude install hdapsd}}

{{cmduser|echo 'tp-smapi' <nowiki>|</nowiki> sudo tee -a /etc/modules}}

=== Popping Sound with Intel sound card ===
You might be hearing a popping sound with an Intel sound card. A temporary solution exists for this [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/433782 known bug].

Open a terminal:

{{cmduser|sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf}}

And comment the last line called "options snd-hda-intel power_save=10". Basically, this is how the line should look after editing it:

<pre>
#options snd-hda-intel power_save=10 power_save_controller=N
</pre>

== Tested: Non-functioning ==
