Does anybody know how to modify these instructions for the current AIK download which does not contain the same MSI and CAB files named in these instructions, according to 7z? I only find netfx.msi and netfx1.cab which do not contain the expected files when they are extracted either. How can I create a WinPE ISO?

Karlcz: /* BIOS update on x200 w/o Windows? */

== BIOS update on x200 w/o Windows? ==

I'm looking for a way to update the BIOS of my new x200, which is running 64bit GNU/Linux exclusively. I don't have a dock/external CD driver. Is there a way to do the update without installing Microsoft Windows to my hard driver or obtaining a suitable CD drive?

===Installation===

The X200 lacks an internal optical drive, unless you get the expansion base. However, USB devices are bootable so you can use an external USB CD/DVD drive. You can also use a USB hard-drive containing ISO images if you want to boot a small install image and not burn a full DVD or CD-ROM set. A full network install will be possible only when the installation kernel supports the network device (not a given with these newest chipsets).

The standard Fedora 9 i386 and x86_64 kernels do not yet support the network devices, so a network-based installation is impossible. I installed using a local USB disk containing a DVD ISO image as the source media, and then also used a USB disk containing a current updates.newkey repo mirror to do the first round of yum updates (modifying the /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-newkey.repo file to point to a local file:/// URL.

The Fedora 10 Preview kernel does support the gigabit ethernet interface. Once installed, the wireless is also supported. With these latest installation kernels, a normal network install should be possible.

===USB Boot===

It seems as though I can only boot from an external USB CD/DVD drive when it is connected to one of the ports on the left-hand side of the machine, and not the port on the right-hand side. I do not know if this is expected or if it indicates a BIOS flaw.

===SATA===

The internal SATA hard disk is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 or 10 preview/rawhide x86_64 install.

===Intel Gigabit Ethernet LAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the LAN controller. The latest kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9 supports the LAN controller (verified with i686 kernel).

There was a brief period where the e1000e driver was disabled, but it is working again in Fedora 10 (rawhide) as well.

===Intel 5100AGN WLAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the WLAN controller, nor do the latest 2.6.26.3-29 kernels with the iwl-5000 firmware. The first Fedora kernel that seems to support this controller, using the iwlagn module, is the 2.6.27.0 kernel from rawhide.

===Graphics===

The integrated graphics is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 install and with the latest updates as of 2008-09-23.

I've been using rawhide kernels to get wireless support, but had to fall back to the vesa driver to get X to work that way. I finally see e1000e, iwlagn, and the intel driver for xorg all working at once as of 2008-10-16 with 2.6.27-13.fc10.x86_64! I started with a Fedora 9 x86_64 install that is up to date, and then did "yum --enablerepo=rawhide update kernel-* xorg-x11-* libdrm-*"...

With Fedora 10 Preview, the intel driver works but causes hangs during resume from suspend or hibernate. I used the vesa driver in order to have suspend states working. Starting with kernel update kernel-2.6.27.5-101.fc10.x86_64, suspend and resume now seem to work with the intel driver. However, there are some other stability issues with 3D that seem to linger... heavy use of 3D apps or compiz seems to lead to system lockups.

===Trackpoint===

The integrated trackpoint pointing device (the "pointy-stick") is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 or 10 preview/rawhide x86_64 install.

===Web Camera===

The built-in webcam in the bezel is supported by the uvcvideo driver. It shows up as an attached USB device.

===Bluetooth===

The built-in bluetooth works with the btusb driver. It can be enabled and disabled via the thinkpad-acpi controls, which cause it to appear and disappear from the USB bus.

===Sound===

The integrated sound is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 or 10 preview/rawhide x86_64 install.

===ACPI Power Management===

The cpuspeed functionality and cooling seem to work properly.

The status of suspend and hibernate seems to be changing frequently with updates to the kernel and other packages. I have switched to Fedora 10 (rawhide) so I cannot report on the ongoing Fedora 9 status.

On Fedora 10 Preview installed and updated via yum, suspend and hibernate work with the vesa xorg driver and just recently, starting with kernel-2.6.27.5-101.fc10.x86_64, also work on resume with the intel xorg driver. Also, there seems to be a bug with the hotkeys, causing a "double suspend" or "double hibernate" effect: it sleeps or hibernates a second time immediately after resuming, and then stays awake the second time you wake it up. Lately, I have seen even more repeated resumes... three or four cycles before it stays awake. If you trigger the suspend or hibernate via another GUI method and not hotkeys, it works correctly the first time.

With Fedora 10 Preview, the intel driver works but causes hangs during resume from suspend or hibernate. I used the vesa driver in order to have suspend states working. Starting with kernel update kernel-2.6.27.5-101.fc10.x86_64, suspend and resume now seem to work with the intel driver. However, there are some other stability issues with 3D that seem to linger... heavy use of 3D apps or compiz seems to lead to system lockups.

===Trackpoint===

The integrated trackpoint pointing device (the "pointy-stick") is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===Web Camera===

The built-in webcam in the bezel is supported by the uvcvideo driver. It shows up as an attached USB device.

===Bluetooth===

The built-in bluetooth works with the btusb driver. It can be enabled and disabled via the thinkpad-acpi controls, which cause it to appear and disappear from the USB bus.

===Sound===

The integrated sound is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===ACPI Power Management===

The cpuspeed functionality and cooling seem to work properly.

The status of suspend and hibernate seems to be changing frequently with updates to the kernel and other packages. I have switched to Fedora 10 (rawhide) so I cannot report on the ongoing Fedora 9 status.

On Fedora 10 Preview installed and updated via yum, suspend and hibernate work with the vesa xorg driver and just recently, starting with kernel-2.6.27.5-101.fc10.x86_64, also work on resume with the intel xorg driver. Also, there seems to be a bug with the hotkeys, causing a "double suspend" or "double hibernate" effect: it sleeps or hibernates a second time immediately after resuming, and then stays awake the second time you wake it up. Lately, I have seen even more repeated resumes... three or four cycles before it stays awake. If you trigger the suspend or hibernate via another GUI method and not hotkeys, it works correctly the first time.

Installing Fedora on an X200

2008-11-15T10:37:39Z

Karlcz: /* Graphics */ resume with intel now working

===Installation===

The X200 lacks an internal optical drive, unless you get the expansion base. However, USB devices are bootable so you can use an external USB CD/DVD drive. You can also use a USB hard-drive containing ISO images if you want to boot a small install image and not burn a full DVD or CD-ROM set.

The standard Fedora 9 i386 and x86_64 kernels do not yet support the network devices, so a network-based installation is impossible. I installed using a local USB disk containing a DVD ISO image as the source media, and then also used a USB disk containing a current updates.newkey repo mirror to do the first round of yum updates (modifying the /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-newkey.repo file to point to a local file:/// URL.

The Fedora 10 Preview kernel does support the gigabit ethernet interface. Once installed, the wireless is also supported.

===USB Boot===

It seems as though I can only boot from an external USB CD/DVD drive when it is connected to one of the ports on the left-hand side of the machine, and not the port on the right-hand side. I do not know if this is expected or if it indicates a BIOS flaw.

===SATA===

The internal SATA hard disk is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===Intel Gigabit Ethernet LAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the LAN controller. The latest kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9 supports the LAN controller (verified with i686 kernel).

There was a brief period where the e1000e driver was disabled, but it is working again in Fedora 10 (rawhide) as well.

===Intel 5100AGN WLAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the WLAN controller, nor do the latest 2.6.26.3-29 kernels with the iwl-5000 firmware. The first Fedora kernel that seems to support this controller, using the iwlagn module, is the 2.6.27.0 kernel from rawhide.

===Graphics===

The integrated graphics is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 install and with the latest updates as of 2008-09-23.

I've been using rawhide kernels to get wireless support, but had to fall back to the vesa driver to get X to work that way. I finally see e1000e, iwlagn, and the intel driver for xorg all working at once as of 2008-10-16 with 2.6.27-13.fc10.x86_64!

Category talk:X200

Karlcz: /* See my Fedora 9 on X200 article */

I have the ThinkPad X200, and I was wondering if anybody had success with hibernate, sleep, and general power saving?

Also, can anybody find the right framebuffer module and configure it for the 1200x800 screen resolution?

== See my Fedora 9 on X200 article ==

I am now running Fedora 10-Alpha/rawhide on my X200 and everything basically functions (gigabit ethernet, 5100AGN wireless, webcam) except I have to use the vesa driver with xorg.conf instead of the i810 which causes machine crashes. (Apparently it is a known bug upstream and I'm just hoping for some newer xorg-x11-drv-i810 to try out from rawhide). You can set a 1280x800 mode in xorg.conf with the vesa driver.

:Hmm... I run debian testing so I may or may not be able to help, but it appears that at least in X in debian, all the intel chips have been integrated into an 'intel' video driver, which works fine for me. The question about the 1200x800 mode was just for setting it in the framebuffer. Also, it appears that the option to disable HV expansion in BIOS has disappeared, has it not?

:Hibernate and sleep have the problem of immediately resuming—I don't believe any of the workarounds I found on the ACPI page have any effect.

:--[[User:Harrisonts|Harrisonts]] 08:09, 2 October 2008 (CEST)

::Hibernate works well with me. Suspend has the backlight issue. The resume is ok but the screen is dark. In fact on certain angles it is possible to see the image displayed...

::--[[User:rdemaria|rdemaria]] Mon Nov 10 19:43:59 EST 2008

::I mentioned i810 but that is just the package name on Fedora which includes the "intel" driver which is being loaded to operate the card when I tried it. It works after reboot but crashes after suspend/resume and hibernate/resume and there is a bug in the Fedora bugzilla (for rawhide/Fedora 10) already with multiple reporters for Thinkpad X200 models.

::Rdemeria: Are you using the vesa driver? I think the backlight works after suspend with the vesa xorg driver, if the i915 kernel module is loaded so it handles power management... however, I have not done enough cycles to be sure everything is reliable. I still have crashes on resume if I use the intel xorg driver. I use vesa and have modprobe i915 in my rc.local.

::Harrisonts: I wrote up a hardware issue in the known problems page. I had to have my X200 mainboard replaced, to make it stop resuming immediately from suspend, hibernate, and poweroff actions. It was painful to get through the layers of Lenovo tech support to do this, having to convince each person over again that there was a problem!

::--[[User:karlcz|karlcz]] Tue Nov 11 07:45:46 PST 2008

== Does the X200 have AMT? ==

Does anyone know whether the X200 has Intel AMT support? I don't see anything in the BIOS or during POST, but I've already destroyed the windows and recovery partitions and cannot check whether there are any other utilities to gain access...

Problem with system turning itself on

2008-11-01T03:24:58Z

Karlcz: add description of crazy power controller problem

It seems that there is some hardware flaw that affects a small number of users, where the power controller wakes the system from deep power off states including suspend, hibernate, and halt. The people affected by this seem to have had recent Windows XP "downgrades" installed, but this may be coincidental. This problem persists even after verifying all normal situations such as Wake-on-LAN settings being misconfigured.

Symptoms and troubleshooting steps to try:
* Halt from the GRUB boot menu: should power off, but this problem leads it to power off and then restart
* Press power button on BIOS screen: should power off, but this problem leads it to power off and then restart
* Lenovo Windows Vista install may mask this problem somehow

Getting tech support from Lenovo has been difficult because they'll install Vista and say it is non-reproducible. Insist that they try the BIOS test described above, to rule out operating system interference. Another test is to remove all power sources, press power button repeatedly, and then reapply power. A proper machine remains powered off, whereas ones with this problem power up on their own once power is applied. However, some repair technicians do not seem to recognize this as a problem.

The repair performed under warranty service has been to replace the main system board. This has been verified to solve the problem with the same Fedora install on an X200, i.e. the hard drive was removed before service and reinstalled. The problem went away with no modification to the disk image. Judging from Lenovo user forums, this problem also can affect older laptops such as T61. One speculation is that it is somehow related to the Intel AMT controller, but this is not confirmed by Lenovo.

Talk:BIOS Upgrade

Karlcz: New section: Converting Current BIOS CD-ROM for USB Flash boot

== Dead link ==

The link to the FreeDOS floppy (http://www.ankreuzen.de/freedos/files/fd9sr1/fdos1440.zip), which is needed to upgrade the BIOS from a CD, is dead. Is the information still valid? And is there a different source for the floppy image? [[User:Jamesavery|Jamesavery]] 05:49, 18 February 2007 (CET)

== BIOS upgrade using WINE ==

Does anyone think this would be possible? [[User:Mcalwell|Mcalwell]] 08:58, 28 January 2007 (CET)

: No this is not possible. [[User:Mcalwell|Mcalwell]] 16:01, 12 February 2007 (CET)

== BIOS upgrade without battery ==

Concerning the known problem with 600 series with batteries dead too soon, it is impossible to upgrade the bios without the battery because the original ibm update program doesn't allow this. I bought an old 600E without the battery. There was one workaround, but i think for the older releases of the bios, where you just extracted files and upgraded manualy, bypassing the ibm install program. The page that describes this (i lost the link) has a list of different files, that the ones found in current release so i never did figure out what to do? I would like to upgrade because i have really old bios, where ACPI doesn't cooperate so well with the operating system, either windows or linux.

If somebody finds a workaround please help. Thanks

//Edit

I've found the page on Vim's bios upgrade forum.. I don't know if it exactly for my model, since the files differ.. '''Is it possible, to upgrade bios in linux without the battery?'''

''I have found a working solution WOW on the other forum:

*** This is NOT a safe way to update the bios (disclaimer) ***

* First you need to make a BIOS update floppy disk (from the bios file from IBM - place disk in a: drive, run app and answer Y to the agreement) and then format another disk by right clicking on A: - format - make system bootdisk (assuming you have another machine spare)

* Copy all the files from the IBM Boot disk - in my case
$0029000.fl1
$0029000.fl2
FLASH2.EXE
PROD.DAT
UPDTFLSH.EXE
updtrom.exe
USERINT.EXE
UTILINFO.EXE
to the other clean bootdisk.

* Ensure that there is no config.sys and autoexec.bat so it just runs straight into DOS.

* Place the disk into the Laptop, reboot and allow the machine to load via the floppy

* At the command prompt, type "FLASH2.EXE /U" with no quotes then press enter.

The program will automatically search for the files *.FL1 & *.FL2 and load the bios first then the platform file.

The program will automatically update and perform erasing on the rom and then finish with "Update complete".

* Now reboot.

* Hold F1 down as you turn the laptop back on and go into Easy Setup under "Config" click on Initialize to ensure defaults and settings are error free.

* Save and exit...''

// EDIT

This worked on my machine.. I make no guarantees it will work on others.

The above procedure did not work on my T23 using the 1.20 bios; it kept returning error 14 (Low Battery). However, following those instructions and running "qkflash" rather than flash2 did work for the main bios, and later for the embedded controller.

== Bios upgrade & hidden partition ==

I have disabled the hidden partition to make more space for linux (24G). I still have Windows on the 14G partition. Is it safe to upgrade the BIOS without the hidden partition? I want to get a newer BIOS to fix the annoying fan issue. Thanks

- yes don't worry about it. bios upgrades have nothing to do with whats inside the harddrive.

== BIOS upgrade over PXE ==

Hi,

I have a Thinkpad X20 with a very early BIOS and Embedded Controller Program which I'd like to update. Currently, the only feasible way of doing this is over the network using PXE. I already have a fully functional PXE server using SYSLINUX, and have so far been able to boot the BIOS diskette image using MEMDISK, although I have not attempted to flash anything yet due to the warnings given on the page. Is there any safe way I can update both the Controller Program and the BIOS in the same session over the network in this manner? If not, what other methods would be suitable? I have a USB CD-ROM drive and could probably get hold of a USB floppy drive.

Thanks.

Update: I ended up burning CDs as described and successfully updated everything. I'd still like to know if there is a way I could do it entirely over the network, though.

== RE: grub initrd ==

"Another possibility which works even without a CD-drive or network is to boot the disk image via the grub initrd mechanism."

0) Interesting suggestion. Might be better of in its own section.

1) Could you please elaborate?

2) My first guess (pending your elaboration) would be to "chainload" the first block of the diskimage using the grub commandline, like:
blocklist (''path'')/''to''/''diskimage''
chainloader ''blockvalue''+1

But that's just a guess!

== bios/controller update sequence ==

The article says:
"If you go through the readme's on the IBM site they'll cleary state that you must update the Control Program first, then imediately update the BIOS"

When I look at the IBM udpate instructions for the T23, it says:
"If you need to update the BIOS as well as the Embedded Controller Program, update the BIOS first."

Comments?

> I would first contact IBM for clarification, but you should probably be following instructions specific to your model.

>> I did it following IBM's instructions to upgrade the BIOS first. Everything worked out great!

== Firmware upgrade for Intel minipci combo card ==

I just purchased an [[Intel 10/100 Ethernet Mini-PCI Adapter with 56K Modem]] that has an ancient (2.0.6) firmware version. I Downloaded the update file intlbtag.EXE but cabextract was unable to find any cabfiles inside it. I tried running the program via wine and that didn't work either.

Finally I ran the program on a windows machine and created a boot floppy. Then I went through the the process of converting the floppy to a bootable cd via linux and that worked like a charm. The cd successfully updated the minipc card's firmware.

Everything worked but I ended up needing a windows box to do it. Could this have been done without windows?

== Firmware upgrade for Wireless LAN MiniPCI COMBO Card using prism2_srec ==

The appropriate firmware installation program for the wlan card in my R32 can be extracted using cabextract as described in the article. It contains (besides some installation programs) a disk image (1awg06ww.IMG) that seems to be a simple dos boot disk. This image contains 3 .hex files (id010001.hex, pk010100.hex, sf010402.hex) that are recognized by prism2_srec to be "srec"-files. Trying to load them to RAM yields:

Incompatible update data.

Has anyone tried to flash this device using prism2_srec yet?
What bothers me is, that the upgrade is for many different parts of the combo card. Does anyone have an opinion on whether this could work?

OK, I took the risk and successfully upgraded my station firmware, BUT when I tried to upgrade the primary firmware the system froze!!! The thinkpad won't start up with the miniPCI card inserted and all efforts to reflash it using the original DOS boot image failed!!!

I'm quite sure the system freeze was not caused directly by prism2_srec, because I have noticed rare system freezes since I have been using my PCMCIA wireless card.
Anyway, if anyone should own a TP R32, I'd be glad if he could tell me the base address of the Wlan card, or it's PCI address.

== Upgrading BIOS and Embedded Control Program from Win XP ==

I'm trying to upgrade the BIOS and Embedded Controller Program from Windows XP following the instructions on the Lenovo website. The problem is the instructions are not very clear about this. The instructions basically state that I must upgrade them at the same time because the Control Program does not work with the older BIOS and the BIOS does not work with the older Control Program. They also state that I should upgrade the Control Program first.

But that means I must boot into XP after having upgraded the Control Program but with the older BIOS in order to then update the BIOS. But if this works then they are actually compatible and there's a contradiction. Am I missing something? I just want to make sure I don't end up with a non-functioning unit.

I have an X23 and want the latest BIOS (v 1.32) and Control Program (v 1.30).

Maybe there should be a note about this in the article? Or maybe I'm the only one who is this stupid :)

Update: I talked to Lenovo support. The situation apparently is that though the description says that the newer control program is not compatible with the older BIOS, they are not so incompatible as to cause the machine to stop working so it is actually possible to use incompatible versions of BIOS and control program. In fact according to the support person it makes no difference if the BIOS is upgraded before the control program or vice versa. So I upgraded the control program using the executable running in Windows XP, which rebooted the computer to perform the upgrade and then I booted Windows again to upgrade the BIOS in the same manner and it all worked fine. If anyone reading this finds it useful maybe you can put it in the article? Or if you find it superfluous just delete this section.

--[[User:xphinx|xphinx]] 12 March 2007

I have an X22 with BIOS version 1.21 and Embedded Controller version 1.17 and using the steps described by you, I succesfully updated my bios to the lastest versions from WindowsXP (BIOS v1.32 / EC v1.30)
Thanks!

== BIOS upgrade for T21 with T20 BIOS ==

Hi, I bought a used T21 recently (type 2647-8AU), and would like to update the BIOS to the latest version, but there's a problem: this T21 appears to have a T20 BIOS (IYET50WW, a/k/a T20 BIOS version 1.11). When I try updating this BIOS using one of IBM's T21 updaters - I tried KZET34WW/v1.16 (the latest one) and KZET16WW/v1.01 (the earliest one) - I get the following message:

<blockquote>
''The diskette in the default drive will not run on this system. Your system is now locked. To restart your system, press Ctrl+Alt+Del.''
</blockquote>

I suspect this message appears because the existing BIOS is a T20 BIOS.

There would appear to be two options: either use the most recent T20 updater (IYET61WW, a/k/a T20 v1.22), or find a way to defeat the block in the KZET34WW/v1.16 T21 updater. Obviously either option is risky in the absence of more information and/or detective work. And I don't know enough about T2x-series hardware to hazard a guess (i.e., were early T21s just T20s with a speed bump, did some T21s get T20 BIOSes by mistake due to factory error, or are the T20 and T21 similar enough that it doesn't matter whether a T20 or T21 BIOS is used).

Some relevant data gleaned from the stickers on the case bottom and the current BIOS:

<blockquote>
* '''Type:''' 2647-8AU (T21 with 800-MHz processor)
* '''S/N:''' 78-0GL1Z (zero-G-L-one-zed)
* '''Manufacture date:''' 03/2001
* '''BIOS version:''' IYET50WW (T20 BIOS v1.11)
* '''System unit S/N:''' (appears to be blank)
* '''System board S/N:''' J1HHS15CL5C
* '''System board P/N:''' 08K3747 (printed on motherboard)
</blockquote>

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

-Linux Spice

P.S. At first I thought this might be a Frankenstein ThinkPad with a T21 case and a T20 logic board - I did buy it used, after all - but it does have an 800-MHz processor, which was never an option for the T20 (both the BIOS and Linux report it as such), and all the other equipment checks out (except for the hard drive, which was replaced with a 40-GB model).

== Force Upgrade a Thinkpad T20 to latest Thinkpad T22 BIOS ==

i managed to force upgrade my t20 to a t22 bios using a strange method.

i snagged a "bios bootdisk" from bootdisk.com (it's a drdos/caldera dos boot disk), wrote the image to a floppy disk, then copied to it the PHLASH.EXE flasher, $0179000.fl1 (renamed to BIOS.BIN) and $0179000.fl3 (renamed to PLATFORM.IMG) from the T22 1.06 update from ibm/lenovo's site. i think any lower version would work, but it tried it with that. anyways.

i inserted the disk into the thinkpad t20, booted off of it, then ran PHLASH. it reflashed the t20 with the t22 1.06 image no problem. now the machine's in a frankenstein state...t22 bios, t20 ec, etc. i took the floppy out (or made another floppy, whatever), wrote to it the latest available update from ibm/lenovo (at the time of writing, although i doubt it will ever be updated again, is 1.12), booted the thinkpad t20 off of it, and the bios reflash disk was satisfied that the machine was a t22. more waiting, and the thinkpad t20 is now a thinkpad t22! for me, it means no more waiting for the machine to count memory every single boot (it remembers the value and quick boots now), and it perfectly supports my 1400x1050 display from a damaged thinkpad t22!

end result: reflashed a thinkpad t20 with the latest thinkpad t22 bios, and now the machine presents itself as a thinkpad t22. the hardware's similar enough that it can pass itself off as such just fine.

hope others can share in my success.

== BIOS format ==

Not sure if this is the right place, but...
Does anybody know what the formats for the various files are in the bios package (or, even better, the bios.bak file that gets dumped on your disk before updating)? I'm getting progressivel lower and lower level in figuring out just what happens when the computer boots, and the BIOS is the last step... (BTW, I have an x60s)

-- Unknown

Yes. It is a binary dump. Sometimes, there is junk in the start of the file. This should be data enough for you to figure out what you need.

== BIOS update gone bad ==

I tried to flash my [[:Category:600|ThinkPad 600]]'s bios with catastrophalic outcome; now the machine is unable to boot. I, being overly stupid and too self-confident, ignored all warnings about the media containing the bios image not being write-protected (I used one partition of the disk, in which I had installed FreeDOS). During the updating process, the machine started to write screens full of random characters in cyan coloured background. At that point I knew it was b0rked. I asked my friend about what to do now, he said I could open the machine up, locate the bios chip and use EPROM programmer/burner to write the bios image to the chip. He also said that because my machine is very old, there are probably not safeguards like dual bios or emergency bios update from floppy disk on boot. He continued by saying that the bios update file images from IBM/Lenovo website might not be actual , "pure" binaries which could be burned directly to the chip, instead they may contain some vendor-specific checksums which must be taken into account. In ThinkWiki there seems to be no page about bios flashing gone bad and restoring the machine to working condition. Or is there? I really need your help with this; I think I'm able to locate the bios, take it off and find a working EPROM burner, but where can I get a clean BIOS image without the vendor checksums? I'd be grateful for any references.

== BIOS upgrade using USB flash drive ==

I flashed my Thinkpad X41 succesfully with 2.09 BIOS using bootable USB flash drive with DOS 6.22 system files. (I guess Freedos would work aswell). I had such key laying around so I can't help you with making one (i used windows HP USB key format utility to make it long long time ago)
Everything is quite simple once you have USB key and are able to boot DOS from it.

I downloaded the non-diskette ThinkPad BIOS update utility (74uj15us.exe) from lenovo support site and extracted the disk image from it using cabextract:
{{cmduser|cabextract -F "*.IMG" 74uj15us.exe}}

I mounted the image file (74UJ15US.IMG):
{{cmdroot|mkdir /tmp/mnt}}
{{cmdroot|mount -loop o 74UJ15US.IMG /tmp/mnt}}

I mounted the usb key and made a directory for ibm flash utility files under it:
{{cmdroot|mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbflash}}
{{cmdroot|mkdir /mnt/usbflash/ibm}}

I copied the contents of /tmp/mnt to /mnt/usbflash/ibm:
{{cmdroot|cp /tmp/mnt/*.* /mnt/usbflash/ibm}}

Then I unmounted the USB stick and rebooted from it to DOS (F12 during boot -> USB HDD). 
In the DOS Prompt: 
C:\cd ibm
C:\IBM\flash2 /U
I waited for about 1 minute, then my thinkpad made two beeps to signal that the flashing was complete.

PS. Because lacking reliable guide on how to make bootable DOS USB stick for ThinkPads I decided to leave this into discussion section. Please feel free to move/edit all the necessary stuff into the BIOS upgrade article if you know/figure out how to make bootable DOS USB stick in linux. I tried various tutorials including http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Create_a_DOS_boot_USB_flash_drive, but didn't manage to boot into the Freedos prompt.

==Reserving RAM for my X3100 graphics card==
Is there any way in the BIOS to reserve memory for my graphics card? I have 2 GB of RAM, which is more than enough for general system processes so I'd like to allocate some to my Intel graphics card. [[User:SteveSims|SteveSims]] 19:36, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

==BIOS Doesn't want to install==
During the install process on a Z60m, I get the error message, "An update is not necessary at this time. The process has been canceled." The program is right, I am using the same latest BIOS version. However, I have a different, new boot splash image on it. I was wondering if there were any way to force a reflash - the program gives me no way around this.

Turns out that I had put the bios splash on incorrectly. It should reflash if you change the splash image. But in case you needed to reflash an identical bios for any reason, one thing that worked for me was downgrading and then upgrading.

== Converting Current BIOS CD-ROM for USB Flash boot ==

The latest Lenovo BIOS releases in bootable CD-ROM format (for the X200 in my case) are using hard disk emulation rather than floppy emulation.

I peeked at the ISO with hexdump and found the hard disk image, including its MBR and partition table, starting at byte offset 0xd800 in the particular image I inspected. I won't explain the crude way I found this, but it was easy to verify. I used "tail -c +55297 foo.iso > boot.img" and then loaded this up in a loopback device to verify that fdisk saw a proper partition table.

Simply dumping this image to a USB flash drive via dd if=boot.img of=/dev/sdb then created a bootable drive and I successfully booted this and updated my X200 BIOS. Your mileage may vary...

Installing Fedora on an X200

2008-10-16T16:25:32Z

Karlcz: /* ACPI Power Management */

===NOTE===

After more investigation I have discovered a consistent problem on my X200 with Fedora 9 or Rawhide. See the ACPI section, and please report if you have different experiences... the issue is that the machine restarts itself immediately following all power-off and suspend actions. This does not happen under the factory-restored Windows Vista, so perhaps there is some ACPI fix that needs to be done with Linux? I don't even know where to start in providing feedback to developers on this.

Lenovo tech support was unhelpful, because they do not consider the device to be "designed for Linux".

===Installation===

The X200 lacks an internal optical drive, unless you get the media slice. However, USB devices are bootable so you can use an external USB CD/DVD drive. You can also use a USB hard-drive containing ISO images if you want to boot a small install image and not burn a full DVD or CD-ROM set.

The standard Fedora 9 i386 and x86_64 kernels do not yet support the network devices, so a network-based installation is impossible. I installed using a local USB disk containing a DVD ISO image as the source media, and then also used a USB disk containing a current updates.newkey repo mirror to do the first round of yum updates (modifying the /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-newkey.repo file to point to a local file:/// URL.

===USB Boot===

It seems as though I can only boot from an external USB CD/DVD drive when it is connected to one of the ports on the left-hand side of the machine, and not the port on the right-hand side. I do not know if this is expected or if it indicates a BIOS flaw.

===SATA===

The internal SATA hard disk is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===Intel Gigabit Ethernet LAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the LAN controller. The latest kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9 supports the LAN controller (verified with i686 kernel).

===Intel 5100AGN WLAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the WLAN controller, nor do the latest 2.6.26.3-29 kernels with the iwl-5000 firmware. The first Fedora kernel that seems to support this controller, using the iwlagn module, is the 2.6.27.0 kernel from rawhide.

===Graphics===

The integrated graphics is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 install and with the latest updates as of 2008-09-23.

I've been using rawhide kernels to get wireless support, but had to fall back to the vesa driver to get X to work that way. I finally see e1000e, iwlagn, and the intel driver for xorg all working at once as of 2008-10-16 with 2.6.27-13.fc10.x86_64! I started with a Fedora 9 x86_64 install that is up to date, and then did "yum --enablerepo=rawhide update kernel-* xorg-x11-* libdrm-*"...

===Trackpoint===

The integrated trackpoint pointing device (the "pointy-stick") is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===Web Camera===

The built-in webcam in the bezel is supported by the uvcvideo driver. It shows up as an attached USB device.

===Sound===

The integrated sound is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===ACPI Power Management===

The cpuspeed functionality and cooling seem to work properly.

The basic hibernate appears to function with Fedora 9 x86_64, with one caveat.

There seems to be a problem with the laptop immediately re-awakening from suspend, hibernate, and even power-off commands. If you press and hold the power button while it is attempting to restart, you can finally force it to remain off. This works for shutdown -h and hibernate, but not suspend (since it resumes too quickly and you will be powering off the live system).

On the immediate resume from suspend, with the vesa driver, the LCD is not functional. Hibernating and resuming will restore the LCD, but switching to text console and back to X will not. With the intel driver and rawhide kernel+xorg, it seems to resume OK now (except that my thinkpad refuses to stay asleep).

Installing Fedora on an X200

2008-10-01T04:43:02Z

Karlcz: /* Intel 5100AGN WLAN */

===NOTE===

After more investigation I have discovered a consistent problem on my X200 with Fedora 9 or Rawhide. See the ACPI section, and please report if you have different experiences... the issue is that the machine restarts itself immediately following all power-off and suspend actions. This does not happen under the factory-restored Windows Vista, so perhaps there is some ACPI fix that needs to be done with Linux? I don't even know where to start in providing feedback to developers on this.

Lenovo tech support was unhelpful, because they do not consider the device to be "designed for Linux".

===Installation===

The X200 lacks an internal optical drive, unless you get the media slice. However, USB devices are bootable so you can use an external USB CD/DVD drive. You can also use a USB hard-drive containing ISO images if you want to boot a small install image and not burn a full DVD or CD-ROM set.

The standard Fedora 9 i386 and x86_64 kernels do not yet support the network devices, so a network-based installation is impossible. I installed using a local USB disk containing a DVD ISO image as the source media, and then also used a USB disk containing a current updates.newkey repo mirror to do the first round of yum updates (modifying the /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-newkey.repo file to point to a local file:/// URL.

===USB Boot===

It seems as though I can only boot from an external USB CD/DVD drive when it is connected to one of the ports on the left-hand side of the machine, and not the port on the right-hand side. I do not know if this is expected or if it indicates a BIOS flaw.

===SATA===

The internal SATA hard disk is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===Intel Gigabit Ethernet LAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the LAN controller. The latest kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9 supports the LAN controller (verified with i686 kernel).

===Intel 5100AGN WLAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the WLAN controller, nor do the latest 2.6.26.3-29 kernels with the iwl-5000 firmware. The first Fedora kernel that seems to support this controller, using the iwlagn module, is the 2.6.27.0 kernel from rawhide.

===Graphics===

The integrated graphics is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 install and with the latest updates as of 2008-09-23.

Note: rawhide (Fedora 10) kernels bring in a graphics dependency which do not work right. You need to change xorg.conf to use the vesa driver instead of the i810 driver on rawhide! While the console seems broken, I was able to ssh into the laptop to diagnose this. You can manually set the 1280x800 mode in xorg.conf with the vesa driver.

===Trackpoint===

The integrated trackpoint pointing device (the "pointy-stick") is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===Web Camera===

The built-in webcam in the bezel is supported by the uvcvideo driver. It shows up as an attached USB device.

===Sound===

The integrated sound is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===ACPI Power Management===

The cpuspeed functionality and cooling seem to work properly.

The basic hibernate appears to function with Fedora 9 x86_64, with one caveat.

There seems to be a problem with the laptop immediately re-awakening from suspend, hibernate, and even power-off commands. If you press and hold the power button while it is attempting to restart, you can finally force it to remain off. This works for shutdown -h and hibernate, but not suspend (since it resumes too quickly and you will be powering off the live system).

On the immediate resume from suspend, with the vesa driver, the LCD is not functional. Hibernating and resuming will restore the LCD, but switching to text console and back to X will not.

You can check current BIOS and Embedded Controller versions using dmidecode command line tool. For example:
bash# dmidecode -s bios-version && dmidecode -t11
1RETDRWW (3.23 )
# dmidecode 2.9
SMBIOS 2.33 present.
Handle 0x0029, DMI type 11, 5 bytes
OEM Strings
String 1: IBM ThinkPad Embedded Controller -[1RHT71WW-3.04 ]-

The following table lists direct links to BIOS updates for most Thinkpad Models. Refer to [[BIOS Upgrade]] for instructions on how to perform a BIOS upgrade.

The '''FW model''' column is what actually identifies which sort of firmware (BIOS and Embedded Controller) should be installed in a ThinkPad. Machines with the same firmware model use the same BIOS and Embedded Controller firmware. It can also be found as the OEM table ID in the ACPI DSDT. It is formed by the characters "TP-", plus the first two characters from the BIOS/EC update part number.

{{WARN|BIOS 70ET67WW v. 1.27 for the TP-70 (T43, R52) dated 2006/10/04 and later require vesafb:nocrtc parameter in vesafb-tng mode. Your console screen will become black without it.}}

{{NOTE|Firefox or Konqueror users should disable the '''Use IBM Download Director''' option when downloading files.}}

{{NOTE|All Lenovo T, X and R laptops have several bugs in the BIOS that are being actively fixed by Lenovo. For these laptops, BIOS updates are not optional if you find anything to not be working properly, be it the brightness control, or suspend to RAM, or volume keys.}}

You can check current BIOS and Embedded Controller versions using dmidecode command line tool. For example:
bash# dmidecode -s bios-version && dmidecode -t11
1RETDRWW (3.23 )
# dmidecode 2.9
SMBIOS 2.33 present.
Handle 0x0029, DMI type 11, 5 bytes
OEM Strings
String 1: IBM ThinkPad Embedded Controller -[1RHT71WW-3.04 ]-

The following table lists direct links to BIOS updates for most Thinkpad Models. Refer to [[BIOS Upgrade]] for instructions on how to perform a BIOS upgrade.

The '''FW model''' column is what actually identifies which sort of firmware (BIOS and Embedded Controller) should be installed in a ThinkPad. Machines with the same firmware model use the same BIOS and Embedded Controller firmware. It can also be found as the OEM table ID in the ACPI DSDT. It is formed by the characters "TP-", plus the first two characters from the BIOS/EC update part number.

{{WARN|BIOS 70ET67WW v. 1.27 for the TP-70 (T43, R52) dated 2006/10/04 and later require vesafb:nocrtc parameter in vesafb-tng mode. Your console screen will become black without it.}}

{{NOTE|Firefox or Konqueror users should disable the '''Use IBM Download Director''' option when downloading files.}}

{{NOTE|All Lenovo T, X and R laptops have several bugs in the BIOS that are being actively fixed by Lenovo. For these laptops, BIOS updates are not optional if you find anything to not be working properly, be it the brightness control, or suspend to RAM, or volume keys.}}

You can check current BIOS and Embedded Controller versions using dmidecode command line tool. For example:
bash# dmidecode -s bios-version && dmidecode -t11
1RETDRWW (3.23 )
# dmidecode 2.9
SMBIOS 2.33 present.
Handle 0x0029, DMI type 11, 5 bytes
OEM Strings
String 1: IBM ThinkPad Embedded Controller -[1RHT71WW-3.04 ]-

The following table lists direct links to BIOS updates for most Thinkpad Models. Refer to [[BIOS Upgrade]] for instructions on how to perform a BIOS upgrade.

The '''FW model''' column is what actually identifies which sort of firmware (BIOS and Embedded Controller) should be installed in a ThinkPad. Machines with the same firmware model use the same BIOS and Embedded Controller firmware. It can also be found as the OEM table ID in the ACPI DSDT. It is formed by the characters "TP-", plus the first two characters from the BIOS/EC update part number.

{{WARN|BIOS 70ET67WW v. 1.27 for the TP-70 (T43, R52) dated 2006/10/04 and later require vesafb:nocrtc parameter in vesafb-tng mode. Your console screen will become black without it.}}

{{NOTE|Firefox or Konqueror users should disable the '''Use IBM Download Director''' option when downloading files.}}

{{NOTE|All Lenovo T, X and R laptops have several bugs in the BIOS that are being actively fixed by Lenovo. For these laptops, BIOS updates are not optional if you find anything to not be working properly, be it the brightness control, or suspend to RAM, or volume keys.}}

You can check current BIOS and Embedded Controller versions using dmidecode command line tool. For example:
bash# dmidecode -s bios-version && dmidecode -t11
1RETDRWW (3.23 )
# dmidecode 2.9
SMBIOS 2.33 present.
Handle 0x0029, DMI type 11, 5 bytes
OEM Strings
String 1: IBM ThinkPad Embedded Controller -[1RHT71WW-3.04 ]-

The following table lists direct links to BIOS updates for most Thinkpad Models. Refer to [[BIOS Upgrade]] for instructions on how to perform a BIOS upgrade.

The '''FW model''' column is what actually identifies which sort of firmware (BIOS and Embedded Controller) should be installed in a ThinkPad. Machines with the same firmware model use the same BIOS and Embedded Controller firmware. It can also be found as the OEM table ID in the ACPI DSDT. It is formed by the characters "TP-", plus the first two characters from the BIOS/EC update part number.

Karlcz: New section: See my Fedora 9 on X200 article

Installing Fedora on an X200

2008-09-24T15:03:53Z

Karlcz:

===Installation===

The X200 lacks an internal optical drive, unless you get the media slice. However, USB devices are bootable so you can use an external USB CD/DVD drive. You can also use a USB hard-drive containing ISO images if you want to boot a small install image and not burn a full DVD or CD-ROM set.

The standard Fedora 9 i386 and x86_64 kernels do not yet support the network devices, so a network-based installation is impossible. I installed using a local USB disk containing a DVD ISO image as the source media, and then also used a USB disk containing a current updates.newkey repo mirror to do the first round of yum updates (modifying the /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-newkey.repo file to point to a local file:/// URL.

===USB Boot===

It seems as though I can only boot from an external USB CD/DVD drive when it is connected to one of the ports on the left-hand side of the machine, and not the port on the right-hand side. I do not know if this is expected or if it indicates a BIOS flaw.

===SATA===

The internal SATA hard disk is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===Intel Gigabit Ethernet LAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the LAN controller. The latest kernel-2.6.26.3-29.fc9 supports the LAN controller (verified with i686 kernel).

===Intel 5100AGN WLAN===

The drivers in the Fedora 9 installation media do not detect the WLAN controller. The first Fedora kernel that seems to support this controller, using the iwlagn module, is the 2.6.27.0 kernel from rawhide.

===Graphics===

The integrated graphics is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 install and with the latest updates as of 2008-09-23.

Note: rawhide (Fedora 10) kernels bring in a graphics dependency which do not work right. You need to change xorg.conf to use the vesa driver instead of the i810 driver on rawhide! While the console seems broken, I was able to ssh into the laptop to diagnose this. You can manually set the 1280x800 mode in xorg.conf with the vesa driver.

===Trackpoint===

The integrated trackpoint pointing device (the "pointy-stick") is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===Web Camera===

The built-in webcam in the bezel is supported by the uvcvideo driver. It shows up as an attached USB device.

===Sound===

The integrated sound is detected and supported during the Fedora 9 x86_64 install.

===ACPI Power Management===

The cpuspeed functionality and cooling seem to work properly.

The basic hibernate appears to function with Fedora 9 x86_64, with one caveat.

There seems to be a problem with the laptop immediately re-awakening from suspend, hibernate, and even power-off commands. If you press and hold the power button while it is attempting to restart, you can finally force it to remain off. This works for shutdown -h and hibernate, but not suspend (since it resumes too quickly and you will be powering off the live system).

On the immediate resume from suspend, with the vesa driver, the LCD is not functional. Hibernating and resuming will restore the LCD, but switching to text console and back to X will not.
