Michiwend: /* 2.6.38.* */ now it works. My Firmware was broken, sry

== Firmware ==

I found out a way to get the firmware on a linux-only system. Mine is a debian squeeze, but it should apply to any system.

First, I entered my model number on the [http://www.lenovo.com/support/ Lenovo support page] in the right siderow (Select you system / Quick Path) to get to my drivers page. There I clicked to download drivers and on the UMTS drivers. Afterwards I downloaded the "<code>7xwc42ww.exe</code>" driver package.

You dont need to enter your serial number to the lenovo support page. With some googling i came up with [http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72938.html this] page. This is very useful for all those owning a laptop not built by lenovo. ([[User:Bob the builder|bob]])

With wine I was able to install the driver package, but all it does, was unpacking the GOBI driver setup. This one comes packaged as a <code>.msi</code> file, so we have to [http://sysblogd.wordpress.com/2008/05/10/howto-extract-all-files-from-microsoft-installer-files-msi-rather-than-to-install-the-package/ unpack] it:

user@machine:~$ wine msiexec /a ~/.wine/drive_c/DRIVERS/WWANQL/Driver/GobiInstaller.msi TARGETDIR=C:\\DRIVERS\\GOBI

The installer quits with errors, but leaves the files on the disk, success. But now there are several subdirectories, in which the files for the specific network operators reside:

I found this out by reading the <code>ReadMe.rtf</code>, looking into the <code>UQCN.mbn</code>-Files and apply a little bit of thinking.

Now I'll move the files over and try them out.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I got the Sprint Image with firmware, how does one flash the Gobi with this firmware?

You do not need to flash the gobi as such. Firmware must be loaded at every boot. Simply use the gobi_loader mentioned on the main page, with the 3 firmware files from the sprint directory. You will need to modify it to match your USB IDs. After the firmware it loaded it will last until you power off your laptop. I usually reboot after loading the firmware, but before trying to use the modem. The firmware remains loaded. [[User:Catphish|Catphish]]

so it's working with recent kernels or no? And add any info about GPS, please. [[User:Tensai.cirno|Tensai.cirno]] 02:26, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

I had no luck with 2.6.34. however i tested 2.6.35-rc3 + gobi_loader 0.6 and it worked. had to load the firmware by hand though ...
"/lib/udev/gobi_loader -2000 /dev/ttyUSB0 /lib/firmware/gobi" but i guess the id in the udev file is not the right one for my card. --[[User:Max p|Max p]] 02:09, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, this is ''very good'' news. [[User:Tensai.cirno|Tensai.cirno]] 06:54, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Yes, with 2.6.35 and gobi_loader 0.7 it works for me (T510, O2 Germany, Generic firmware) --[[User:Aneiser|Aneiser]] 21:00, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

The modem also works with 2.6.36 (2.6.36-1~experimental.1) and gobi-loader 0.6.1 from current Debian Testing/Sid/Experimental. GPS doesn’t, although I did apply the patch; /dev/ttyUSB2 doesn't output anything at all – maybe testing outside is necessary. [[User:X2017|X2017]] 20:44, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

== GPS ==

Has anyone managed to get GPS to work yet? I think one has to send certain AT commands to receive the NMEA information (at least that is how it works with some Ericsson modems).
Unfortunately I can't find an AT command reference for the Qualcomm Gobi 2000 ...
[[User:Flyser|Flyser]] 14:15, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

i was asking the qualcomm support about that subject, handing out all AT commands. lets say it that way they were not very cooperative. but you could ask them as well, maybe you got more effective than me and we can have the commands :)--[[User:Max p|Max p]] 09:10, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

so did I. I was told to contact Lenovo about the issue -.- --[[User:Flyser|Flyser]] 08:10, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

You can find the documentation and sdk [http://gobianywhere.com/sdk/index.php here]. However I didn't find any useful AT commands, and I think the SDK is win only. [[User:bbandi|bbandi]] 22:32, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Did you try to install the SDK? Is it possible to analyze how GPS works? --[[User:Aneiser|Aneiser]] 22:00, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Has anyone managed to get GPS to work with the information published on this wiki page? I get all three devices (ttyUSB[012]), but ttyUSB2 does not output anything. Do I have to connect to a wireless network to get this to work? Could someone publish a more detailed guide how to _use_ the gps? I tried:
# cat /dev/ttyUSB2 &
# echo -n "\$GPS_START" > /dev/ttyUSB2
--[[User:Flyser|Flyser]] 11:03, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

I also cannot get the GPS to work even with the new instructions. Googling around, I found that the start string could be "$GPS-START" (Hyphen instead of underline). However, this doesn't work either. The GPS *did* work on the preinstalled Windows 7. I'm using basic UMTS firmware (firmware from folders "UMTS" and "6").
--[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 06:40, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

I was able to get it to work on a X201, after using the 6/UQCN.mbn image from my Windows 7 x64 partition. This seems to be different from the files/checksums above:
root@polaris:~# md5sum /lib/firmware/gobi/*.mbn

On Debian, using '/lib/udev/gpsd.hotplug add /dev/ttyUSB2' you can tell gpsd about the serial device.
--[[User:Shoragan|Shoragan]] 20:07, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm using exactly same firmwares as Shoragan, and I can see the ttyUSB2 device - however, no NMEA data starts to appear after issuing $GPS_START. I'm using W510 --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 06:03, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Same here: using {{openSUSE}} 11.3 with kernel of the day (2.6.37-rc3-3, includes the qcserial patches), gobi_loader 0.7 and current fw files from win partition:
* Gps works in win 7/64 ({{T510i}}) with drivers updated yesterday (most fw files have different md5 sums from those above)
* Copied fw from 1/ to /lib/firmware/gobi/ (also tried the others, but these are the ones working in windows)
* Usb device id changes from x9204 to x9205 automatically (fw gets loaded)
* 3 tty devices appear automatically (udev and module config is ok)
* Modem at ttyUSB1 is functional (at i command in minicom gives fw version and imei)
* ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB2 seem to be dead though (cat, minicom)
--[[User:Joban|Joban]] 19:08, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
*** In windows GPS & wifi work simultaneously? Maybe you should switch off wifi & try GPS? I read official "Lenovo Russia" blog - in the earlier versions BIOS in X100e you can use only wifi '''or''' 3G --[[User:Evadim|Evadim]] 21:10, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Evadim, I assume with wifi you mean UMTS/GSM, not WLAN (agn) I don't know. I don't use UMTS/GSM (for now). How would I explicitly deactivate 3G/wifi/UMTS/GSM in linux?
Btw. I narrowed down used fw a bit: The firmwares in the "1" directory sometimes hangs the boot process for me and fw dosn't load. I use UMTS/ and 6/
files now --[[User:Joban|Joban]] 16:26, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

I tried with newer firmware that comes with the latest WWan driver (driver version 2.0.7.3) at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-72938&medium=rssW510#20101028 - still doesn't work. --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 15:25, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Got it! Wooohooo! I think it work after last BIOS upgrade (lenovo s10-3t), I install win7 for testing GOBI module, upgrade BIOS, test GPS & 3G. After I reboot in to linux - GPS start working. --[[User:Evadim|Evadim]] 17:01, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Guys! 4 hours of sex with USB protocol debugging in Qemu and "$GPS_START/GPS_STOP" is working now! :)
No firmwares, no bios upgrades, forget about it.
All is simple, in default Lenovo GPS application(ThinkVantage GPS) all NMEA data goes through broadband ethernet virtual interface and enabled by some proprietary protocol. Windows NMEA port is uneuseful before you click button "Start" in ThinkVantage GPS(driver automatically prepend GPS_START string to any connection started on qualcomm nmea port). But if we go to the Preferences of this GPS tracker, and enable checkbox "Auto tracking", Gobi 2000 start to automaticlly enable GPS through its proprietary protocol when new connection appears on NMEA port and it see string "$GPS_START".

So, u only need to install Windows on your machine(or install it on virtual machine), install GPS tracker from Lenovo and simple enable "Auto tracking" checkbox in GPS tracker preferences. After that, u can remove Windows and enjoy GPS in any OS on your notebook. --[[User:Invented|Invented]] 21:50, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

I can confirm that the above trick works. I simply installed VirtualBox, placed Windows XP in it, set Virtualbox to pass-through Qualcomm USB to the Windows, and installed the WWan drivers (see link above) and the GPS Tracker software. Thanks a lot! --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 08:30, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

I owe you a beer if this works. Sounds awesome, thanks!
EDIT: works fine (also with the vbox method). --[[User:Flyser|Flyser]] 14:36, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

I use WinXP I have updated my WWAN driver and have enabled the checkbox "Auto tracking" and rebooted my linux but I just have a ttyUSB0 what to do?

You have to use a kernel newer than 2.6.37 or you have to apply this patch to your kernel http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=128534473802312&w=2 --[[User:Flyser|Flyser]] 9. Januar 2011

I tryed Ubuntu alpha 1 with 2.6.37.X but just got a ttyUSB0. Do you know a liveCD in wich the gobi GPS is working?

You also need to install firmware and load it with gobi-loader. See other parts of discussion. If you type "lsusb" and see 05c6:9204, you haven't loaded the firmware and see just ttyUSB0. Once you have loaded the firmware, lsusb shows 05c6:9205, and you should have ttyUSB0-2. --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 08:53, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

After a long time of waiting for better support for the Gobi 2000, I was really happy to read the advise by Invented from Dec. 25, on how to get the GPS working.
Before that I had already been able to get the firmware loaded properly and (with the kernel patch mentioned above) all three devices showed up as /dev/ttyUSB[012].
The modem had also been working as expected.
With the hint from Invented, I was confident to get the GPS working, too.

I'm running Ubuntu GNU/Linux Maverick Meerkat on my T410.
I don't have multiboot, so Windows XP (all official updates installed) is running under qemu with kvm.
SIM card is inserted (FONIC, using the German O2 network).

I've given full access to all the USB (sudo chmod -R 777 /dev/bus/usb/) and started qemu with command line option: -usbdevice host:05c6:9205 (passing through the USB-device).
I've installed the installed the drivers for the Gobi 2000 (7xwc45ww.exe) and ThinkVantage GPS (81gp09ww.exe).
After realizing that ThinkVantage GPS wouldn't run, I also installed Access Connections (85cx28ww.exe).
Then I was able to start ThinkVantage GPS, followed the instructions to turn off the hardware switch,
checked the Auto Tracking box (also switched to km/h and unchecked the warning box),
closed ThinkVantage GPS, and shut down Windows.

After that I performed a reboot of my host system.
And here's were the problem started: Something slowed down the boot process by several minutes
(meanwhile I know that it's the gobi_loader that hangs).
After logging into the system I saw only /dev/ttyUSB0.
Checking lsusb, I realized that the firmware had not been loaded yet.
Trying to run gobi_loader manually resulted in a hangup of gobi_loader.
Several subsequent reboots and even disconnecting the laptop from power and battery did not solve the problem.

I also tried to pass through host:05c6:9204 to the virtual machine and hoped for Windows to load the firmware.
But the usb device 05c6:9204 wouldn't even show up in the device manager nor in the qemu montior (info usb).

Is there any way to reset the Gobi 2000 to the original state?
Is there any explanation what went wrong?

Thanks a lot in advance!
--[[User:stman|stman]] 22 January 2011

stman, try to disable WWAN in BIOS and boot your computer. Then shut down it, and enable WWAN again. This works for me, when my gobi 200 enters some strange state and refuses to load firmware. --[[User:Invented|Invented]] 09:29, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, Invented!

I also got some helpful advice from linrunner here: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/erneut-problem-mit-gobi-2000-umts-modem/

The trick was to remove the AC adapter as well as the battery and (what I didn't know before) press the power button for some time (> 30 sec.).
That did the job.
So I didn't come to the point trying out yours.
Both tricks might be helpful to know for others!

I suspect my problem either occurred because the USB support in qemu (in my case version 0.12.5) is still experimental or because the Lenovo drivers and programs do not run properly if they don't see a true Thinkpad hardware environment.

I might try out your trick once again with a native Windows installation.
But it doesn't seem too appealing to me for now.
Maybe someone finds out what the checkbox 'Auto Tracking' actually does.
Would be nice to get it working without any Windows installation.

Thanks again!

Invented, I hope you don't mind I've added a 'Troubleshooting' section (describing the two ways of resetting the Gobi 2000) for the page.
--[[User:stman|stman]] 15:17, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

On Ubuntu 10.10 with a Gobi 2000 I had to make a minor change to the udev rulefile for gobi-loader to work consistently -- line 3 of /lib/udev/rules.d/60-gobi.rules should read
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="tty" '''DEVNAME'''=="ttyUSB*" GOTO="gobi_rules"
as opposed to
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="tty" '''KERNEL'''=="ttyUSB*" GOTO="gobi_rules"

I've created a PPA for the GPS enabled qcserial modules. This uses DKMS to automatically compile the module for the used kernel package. It's available on [https://launchpad.net/~dveeden/+archive/thinkpad-fixes ppa:dveeden/thinkpad-fixes]. GPS does work on a T410s with Gobi 2000 with the firmware loaded and without a SIM card.

How about SMS? It would be nice to use sms while conneted to GSM. So, modem manager does not have sms support, did anyone made it posible?

Guys! 4 hours of sex with USB protocol debugging in Qemu and "$GPS_START/GPS_STOP" is working now! :)
No firmwares, no bios upgrades, forget about it.
All is simple, in default Lenovo GPS application(ThinkVantage GPS) all NMEA data goes through broadband ethernet virtual interface and enabled by some proprietary protocol. Windows NMEA port is uneuseful before you click button "Start" in ThinkVantage GPS(driver automatically prepend GPS_START string to any connection started on qualcomm nmea port). But if we go to the Preferences of this GPS tracker, and enable checkbox "Auto tracking", Gobi 2000 start to automaticlly enable GPS through its proprietary protocol when new connection appears on NMEA port and it see string "$GPS_START".

So, u only need to install Windows on your machine(or install it on virtual machine), install GPS tracker from Lenovo and simple enable "Auto tracking" checkbox in GPS tracker preferences. After that, u can remove Windows and enjoy GPS in any OS on your notebook. --[[User:Invented|Invented]] 21:50, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

I can confirm that the above trick works. I simply installed VirtualBox, placed Windows XP in it, set Virtualbox to pass-through Qualcomm USB to the Windows, and installed the WWan drivers (see link above) and the GPS Tracker software. Thanks a lot! --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 08:30, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

I owe you a beer if this works. Sounds awesome, thanks!

I use WinXP I have updated my WWAN driver and have enabled the checkbox "Auto tracking" and rebooted my linux but I just have a ttyUSB0 what to do?

You have to use a kernel newer than 2.6.37 or you have to apply this patch to your kernel http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=128534473802312&w=2 --[[User:Flyser|Flyser]] 9. Januar 2011

I tryed Ubuntu alpha 1 with 2.6.37.X but just got a ttyUSB0. Do you know a liveCD in wich the gobi GPS is working?

You also need to install firmware and load it with gobi-loader. See other parts of discussion. If you type "lsusb" and see 05c6:9204, you haven't loaded the firmware and see just ttyUSB0. Once you have loaded the firmware, lsusb shows 05c6:9205, and you should have ttyUSB0-2. --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 08:53, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

After a long time of waiting for better support for the Gobi 2000, I was really happy to read the advise by Invented from Dec. 25, on how to get the GPS working.
Before that I had already been able to get the firmware loaded properly and (with the kernel patch mentioned above) all three devices showed up as /dev/ttyUSB[012].
The modem had also been working as expected.
With the hint from Invented, I was confident to get the GPS working, too.

I'm running Ubuntu GNU/Linux Maverick Meerkat on my T410.
I don't have multiboot, so Windows XP (all official updates installed) is running under qemu with kvm.
SIM card is inserted (FONIC, using the German O2 network).

I've given full access to all the USB (sudo chmod -R 777 /dev/bus/usb/) and started qemu with command line option: -usbdevice host:05c6:9205 (passing through the USB-device).
I've installed the installed the drivers for the Gobi 2000 (7xwc45ww.exe) and ThinkVantage GPS (81gp09ww.exe).
After realizing that ThinkVantage GPS wouldn't run, I also installed Access Connections (85cx28ww.exe).
Then I was able to start ThinkVantage GPS, followed the instructions to turn off the hardware switch,
checked the Auto Tracking box (also switched to km/h and unchecked the warning box),
closed ThinkVantage GPS, and shut down Windows.

After that I performed a reboot of my host system.
And here's were the problem started: Something slowed down the boot process by several minutes
(meanwhile I know that it's the gobi_loader that hangs).
After logging into the system I saw only /dev/ttyUSB0.
Checking lsusb, I realized that the firmware had not been loaded yet.
Trying to run gobi_loader manually resulted in a hangup of gobi_loader.
Several subsequent reboots and even disconnecting the laptop from power and battery did not solve the problem.

I also tried to pass through host:05c6:9204 to the virtual machine and hoped for Windows to load the firmware.
But the usb device 05c6:9204 wouldn't even show up in the device manager nor in the qemu montior (info usb).

Is there any way to reset the Gobi 2000 to the original state?
Is there any explanation what went wrong?

Thanks a lot in advance!
--[[User:stman|stman]] 22 January 2011

stman, try to disable WWAN in BIOS and boot your computer. Then shut down it, and enable WWAN again. This works for me, when my gobi 200 enters some strange state and refuses to load firmware. --[[User:Invented|Invented]] 09:29, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, Invented!

I also got some helpful advice from linrunner here: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/erneut-problem-mit-gobi-2000-umts-modem/

The trick was to remove the AC adapter as well as the battery and (what I didn't know before) press the power button for some time (> 30 sec.).
That did the job.
So I didn't come to the point trying out yours.
Both tricks might be helpful to know for others!

I suspect my problem either occurred because the USB support in qemu (in my case version 0.12.5) is still experimental or because the Lenovo drivers and programs do not run properly if they don't see a true Thinkpad hardware environment.

I might try out your trick once again with a native Windows installation.
But it doesn't seem too appealing to me for now.
Maybe someone finds out what the checkbox 'Auto Tracking' actually does.
Would be nice to get it working without any Windows installation.

Thanks again!

On Ubuntu 10.10 with a Gobi 2000 I had to make a minor change to the udev rulefile for gobi-loader to work consistently -- line 3 of /lib/udev/rules.d/60-gobi.rules should read
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="tty" '''DEVNAME'''=="ttyUSB*" GOTO="gobi_rules"
as opposed to
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="tty" '''KERNEL'''=="ttyUSB*" GOTO="gobi_rules"

== Firmware ==

I found out a way to get the firmware on a linux-only system. Mine is a debian squeeze, but it should apply to any system.

First, I entered my model number on the [http://www.lenovo.com/support/ Lenovo support page] in the right siderow (Select you system / Quick Path) to get to my drivers page. There I clicked to download drivers and on the UMTS drivers. Afterwards I downloaded the "<code>7xwc42ww.exe</code>" driver package.

You dont need to enter your serial number to the lenovo support page. With some googling i came up with [http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72938.html this] page. This is very useful for all those owning a laptop not built by lenovo. ([[User:Bob the builder|bob]])

With wine I was able to install the driver package, but all it does, was unpacking the GOBI driver setup. This one comes packaged as a <code>.msi</code> file, so we have to [http://sysblogd.wordpress.com/2008/05/10/howto-extract-all-files-from-microsoft-installer-files-msi-rather-than-to-install-the-package/ unpack] it:

user@machine:~$ wine msiexec /a ~/.wine/drive_c/DRIVERS/WWANQL/Driver/GobiInstaller.msi TARGETDIR=C:\\DRIVERS\\GOBI

The installer quits with errors, but leaves the files on the disk, success. But now there are several subdirectories, in which the files for the specific network operators reside:

{| {{prettytable}}
! Dir !! Image !! Remarks
|-
| 0 || Vodafone Image ||
|-
| 1 || Verizon Image ||
|-
| 2 || ATT Image ||
|-
| 3 || Sprint Image || includes special Firmware

| 4 || T-Mobile Image ||
|-

|-
| 9 || Orange Image ||
|-
| 12 || DoCoMo Image || includes special Firmware
|-
| UMTS || Default Firmware || the MD5-sum on the page matches these
|}
t

I found this out by reading the <code>ReadMe.rtf</code>, looking into the <code>UQCN.mbn</code>-Files and apply a little bit of thinking.

Now I'll move the files over and try them out.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I got the Sprint Image with firmware, how does one flash the Gobi with this firmware?

You do not need to flash the gobi as such. Firmware must be loaded at every boot. Simply use the gobi_loader mentioned on the main page, with the 3 firmware files from the sprint directory. You will need to modify it to match your USB IDs. After the firmware it loaded it will last until you power off your laptop. I usually reboot after loading the firmware, but before trying to use the modem. The firmware remains loaded. [[User:Catphish|Catphish]]

However, this doesn't work either. The GPS *did* work on the preinstalled Windows 7. I'm using basic UMTS firmware (firmware from folders "UMTS" and "6").
--[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 06:40, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

I was able to get it to work on a X201, after using the 6/UQCN.mbn image from my Windows 7 x64 partition. This seems to be different from the files/checksums above:
root@polaris:~# md5sum /lib/firmware/gobi/*.mbn
84d002b0ef003cde6c95826bfbf067fe /lib/firmware/gobi/amss.mbn

68e46b936d5400862a0381b101af3972 /lib/firmware/gobi/UQCN.mbn

Now to seems to work:

On Debian, using '/lib/udev/gpsd.hotplug add /dev/ttyUSB2' you can tell gpsd about the serial device.
--[[User:Shoragan|Shoragan]] 20:07, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm using exactly same firmwares as Shoragan, and I can see the ttyUSB2 device - however, no NMEA data starts to appear after issuing $GPS_START. I'm using W510 --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 06:03, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Same here: using {{openSUSE}} 11.3 with kernel of the day (2.6.37-rc3-3, includes the qcserial patches), gobi_loader 0.7 and current fw files from win partition:
* Gps works in win 7/64 ({{T510i}}) with drivers updated yesterday (most fw files have different md5 sums from those above)
* Copied fw from 1/ to /lib/firmware/gobi/ (also tried the others, but these are the ones working in windows)
* Usb device id changes from x9204 to x9205 automatically (fw gets loaded)
* 3 tty devices appear automatically (udev and module config is ok)
* Modem at ttyUSB1 is functional (at i command in minicom gives fw version and imei)
* ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB2 seem to be dead though (cat, minicom)

*** In windows GPS & wifi work simultaneously? Maybe you should switch off wifi & try GPS? I read official "Lenovo Russia" blog - in the earlier versions BIOS in X100e you can use only wifi '''or''' 3G --[[User:Evadim|Evadim]] 21:10, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Evadim, I assume with wifi you mean UMTS/GSM, not WLAN (agn) I don't know. I don't use UMTS/GSM (for now). How would I explicitly deactivate 3G/wifi/UMTS/GSM in linux?
Btw. I narrowed down used fw a bit: The firmwares in the "1" directory sometimes hangs the boot process for me and fw dosn't load. I use UMTS/ and 6/
files now --[[User:Joban|Joban]] 16:26, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

I tried with newer firmware that comes with the latest WWan driver (driver version 2.0.7.3) at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-72938&medium=rssW510#20101028 - still doesn't work. --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 15:25, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

Got it! Wooohooo! I think it work after last BIOS upgrade (lenovo s10-3t), I install win7 for testing GOBI module, upgrade BIOS, test GPS & 3G. After I reboot in to linux - GPS start working. --[[User:Evadim|Evadim]] 17:01, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Guys! 4 hours of sex with USB protocol debugging in Qemu and "$GPS_START/GPS_STOP" is working now! :)
No firmwares, no bios upgrades, forget about it.
All is simple, in default Lenovo GPS application(ThinkVantage GPS) all NMEA data goes through broadband ethernet virtual interface and enabled by some proprietary protocol. Windows NMEA port is uneuseful before you click button "Start" in ThinkVantage GPS(driver automatically prepend GPS_START string to any connection started on qualcomm nmea port). But if we go to the Preferences of this GPS tracker, and enable checkbox "Auto tracking", Gobi 2000 start to automaticlly enable GPS through its proprietary protocol when new connection appears on NMEA port and it see string "$GPS_START".

So, u only need to install Windows on your machine(or install it on virtual machine), install GPS tracker from Lenovo and simple enable "Auto tracking" checkbox in GPS tracker preferences. After that, u can remove Windows and enjoy GPS in any OS on your notebook. --[[User:Invented|Invented]] 21:50, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

I can confirm that the above trick works. I simply installed VirtualBox, placed Windows XP in it, set Virtualbox to pass-through Qualcomm USB to the Windows, and installed the WWan drivers (see link above) and the GPS Tracker software. Thanks a lot! --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 08:30, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

I owe you a beer if this works. Sounds awesome, thanks!
EDIT: works fine (also with the vbox method). --[[User:Flyser|Flyser]] 14:36, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

I use WinXP I have updated my WWAN driver and have enabled the checkbox "Auto tracking" and rebooted my linux but I just have a ttyUSB0 what to do?

You have to use a kernel newer than 2.6.37 or you have to apply this patch to your kernel http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=128534473802312&w=2 --[[User:Flyser|Flyser]] 9. Januar 2011

I tryed Ubuntu alpha 1 with 2.6.37.X but just got a ttyUSB0. Do you know a liveCD in wich the gobi GPS is working?

You also need to install firmware and load it with gobi-loader. See other parts of discussion. If you type "lsusb" and see 05c6:9204, you haven't loaded the firmware and see just ttyUSB0. Once you have loaded the firmware, lsusb shows 05c6:9205, and you should have ttyUSB0-2. --[[User:Zarhan|Zarhan]] 08:53, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

After a long time of waiting for better support for the Gobi 2000, I was really happy to read the advise by Invented from Dec. 25, on how to get the GPS working.
Before that I had already been able to get the firmware loaded properly and (with the kernel patch mentioned above) all three devices showed up as /dev/ttyUSB[012].
The modem had also been working as expected.
With the hint from Invented, I was confident to get the GPS working, too.

I'm running Ubuntu GNU/Linux Maverick Meerkat on my T410.
I don't have multiboot, so Windows XP (all official updates installed) is running under qemu with kvm.
SIM card is inserted (FONIC, using the German O2 network).

I've given full access to all the USB (sudo chmod -R 777 /dev/bus/usb/) and started qemu with command line option: -usbdevice host:05c6:9205 (passing through the USB-device).
I've installed the installed the drivers for the Gobi 2000 (7xwc45ww.exe) and ThinkVantage GPS (81gp09ww.exe).
After realizing that ThinkVantage GPS wouldn't run, I also installed Access Connections (85cx28ww.exe).
Then I was able to start ThinkVantage GPS, followed the instructions to turn off the hardware switch,
checked the Auto Tracking box (also switched to km/h and unchecked the warning box),
closed ThinkVantage GPS, and shut down Windows.

After that I performed a reboot of my host system.
And here's were the problem started: Something slowed down the boot process by several minutes
(meanwhile I know that it's the gobi_loader that hangs).
After logging into the system I saw only /dev/ttyUSB0.
Checking lsusb, I realized that the firmware had not been loaded yet.
Trying to run gobi_loader manually resulted in a hangup of gobi_loader.
Several subsequent reboots and even disconnecting the laptop from power and battery did not solve the problem.

I also tried to pass through host:05c6:9204 to the virtual machine and hoped for Windows to load the firmware.
But the usb device 05c6:9204 wouldn't even show up in the device manager nor in the qemu montior (info usb).

Is there any way to reset the Gobi 2000 to the original state?
Is there any explanation what went wrong?

Thanks a lot in advance!
--[[User:stman|stman]] 22 January 2011

stman, try to disable WWAN in BIOS and boot your computer. Then shut down it, and enable WWAN again. This works for me, when my gobi 200 enters some strange state and refuses to load firmware. --[[User:Invented|Invented]] 09:29, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks a lot, Invented!

I also got some helpful advice from linrunner here: http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/erneut-problem-mit-gobi-2000-umts-modem/

The trick was to remove the AC adapter as well as the battery and (what I didn't know before) press the power button for some time (> 30 sec.).
That did the job.
So I didn't come to the point trying out yours.
Both tricks might be helpful to know for others!

I suspect my problem either occurred because the USB support in qemu (in my case version 0.12.5) is still experimental or because the Lenovo drivers and programs do not run properly if they don't see a true Thinkpad hardware environment.

I might try out your trick once again with a native Windows installation.
But it doesn't seem too appealing to me for now.
Maybe someone finds out what the checkbox 'Auto Tracking' actually does.
Would be nice to get it working without any Windows installation.

Thanks again!

--[[User:stman|stman]] 9:50, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Invented, I hope you don't mind I've added a 'Troubleshooting' section (describing the two ways of resetting the Gobi 2000) for the page.
--[[User:stman|stman]] 15:17, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

On Ubuntu 10.10 with a Gobi 2000 I had to make a minor change to the udev rulefile for gobi-loader to work consistently -- line 3 of /lib/udev/rules.d/60-gobi.rules should read
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="tty" '''DEVNAME'''=="ttyUSB*" GOTO="gobi_rules"
as opposed to
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="tty" '''KERNEL'''=="ttyUSB*" GOTO="gobi_rules"
--[[User:Derkacha|Derkacha]] 00:56, 9 February 2011 (CET)

I've created a PPA for the GPS enabled qcserial modules. This uses DKMS to automatically compile the module for the used kernel package. It's available on [https://launchpad.net/~dveeden/+archive/thinkpad-fixes ppa:dveeden/thinkpad-fixes]. GPS does work on a T410s with Gobi 2000 with the firmware loaded and without a SIM card.

How about SMS? It would be nice to use sms while conneted to GSM. So, modem manager does not have sms support, did anyone made it posible?

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the open source Nouveau driver is installed and works quite well with this model. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.
To install it you´ll need to add the RPMFusion repository described on this page [http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration]

Install the driver with
<pre>yum install kmod-nvidia</pre>
After installing the nVidia driver your boot splash disappears and the resolution of the terminal is very low. To fix that, open {{path|/boot/grub/grub.conf}} as super user with a text editor and add the following at the end of the kernel line
<pre>
vga=0x361
</pre>
This is the highest possible resolution according to the resolution table of grub.

==== Workaround for brightness control ====
To enable brightness control edit {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} (if this file does not exist, create it!)
<pre>
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
</pre>
For Nouveau users please change Driver to "nouveau"!!!
After restarting your machine (or X-server) the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options than in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust its speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
Open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

Play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint, open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. To enable it, open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To authenticate yourself with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

After restarting your machine (or X-server) the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options than in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust its speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
Open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

Play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint, open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. To enable it, open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To authenticate yourself with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the open source Nouveau driver is installed and works quite well with this model. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.
To install it you´ll need to add the RPMFusion repository described on this page [http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration]

Install the driver with
<pre>yum install kmod-nvidia</pre>
After installing the nVidia driver your boot splash disappears and the resolution of the terminal is very low. To fix that, open {{path|/boot/grub/grub.conf}} and add the following at the end of the kernel line
<pre>
vga=0x361
</pre>
This is the highest possible resolution according to the resolution table of grub.

==== Workaround for brightness control ====
To enable brightness control edit {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} (if this file does not exist, create it!)
<pre>
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
</pre>
For Nouveau users please change Driver to "nouveau"!!!
After restarting your machine (or X-server) the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>

echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder.

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the open source Nouveau driver is installed and works quite well with this model. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.
To install it you´ll need to add the RPMFusion repository described on this page [http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration]

Install the driver with
<pre>yum install kmod-nvidia</pre>
After installing the nVidia driver your boot splash disappears and the resolution of the terminal is very low. To fix that, open {{path|/boot/grub/grub.conf}} and add the following at the end of the kernel line
<pre>
vga=0x361
</pre>
This is the highest possible resolution according to the resolution table of grub.

==== Workaround for brightness control ====
To enable brightness control edit {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} (if this file does not exist, create it!)
<pre>
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
</pre>
For Nouveau users please change Driver to "nouveau"!!!
After restarting your machine (or X-server) the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options than in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust its speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
Open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

Play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint, open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. To enable it, open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To enable authentication with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the open source Nouveau driver is installed and works quite well with this model. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.
To install it you´ll need to add the RPMFusion repository described on this page [http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration]

Install the driver with
<pre>yum install kmod-nvidia</pre>
After installing the nVidia driver your boot splash disappears and the resolution of the terminal is very low. To fix that, open {{path|/boot/grub/grub.conf}} and add the following at the end of the kernel line
<pre>
vga=0x361
</pre>
This is the highest possible resolution according to the resolution table of grub.

==== Workaround for brightness control ====
To enable brightness control edit {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} (if this file does not exist, create it!)
<pre>
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
</pre>
For Nouveau users please change Driver to "nouveau"!!!
After restarting your machine (or X-server) the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options than in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust its speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
Open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

Play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To enable authentication with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

== ThinkPad Extra keys ==
ThinkPad keys are handled by a mixture of the thinkpad_acpi, acpi button and acpi dock drivers.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To enable authentication with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the open source Nouveau driver is installed and works quite well with this model. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.
To install it you´ll need to add the RPMFusion repository described on this page [http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration]

Install the driver with
<pre>yum install kmod-nvidia</pre>
After installing the nVidia driver your boot splash disappears and the resolution of the terminal is very low. To fix that, open {{path|/boot/grub/grub.conf}} and add the following at the end of the kernel line
<pre>
vga=0x361
</pre>
This is the highest possible resolution according to the resolution table of grub.

==== Workaround for brightness control ====
To enable brightness control edit {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} (if this file does not exist, create it!)
<pre>
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
</pre>
For Nouveau users please change Driver to "nouveau"!!!
After restarting your machine (or X-server) the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options than in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust it´s speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the open source Nouveau driver is installed and works quite well with this model. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.
To install it you´ll need to add the RPMFusion repository described on this page [http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration]

Install the driver with
<pre>yum install kmod-nvidia</pre>
After installing the nVidia driver, your boot splash disappears and the resolution of the terminal is very low. To fix that, open {{path|/boot/grub/grub.conf}} and add the following at the end of the kernel line
<pre>
vga=0x361
</pre>
This is the highest possible resolution according to the resolution table of grub.

==== Workaround for brightness control ====
To enable brightness control edit {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} (if this file does not exist, create it!)
<pre>
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
</pre>
For Nouveau users please change Driver to "nouveau"!!!
After restarting your machine (or X-server) the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options then in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust it´s speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To enable authentication with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the open source Nouveau driver is installed and works quite well with this model. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.
To install it you´ll need to add the RPMFusion repository described on this page [http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration]

install the driver with
<pre>yum install kmod-nvidia</pre>
After installing the nVidia driver, your boot splash disappears and the resolution of the terminal is very low. To fix that, open {{path|/boot/grub/grub.conf}} and add the following at the end of the kernel line
<pre>
vga=0x361
</pre>
this is the highest possible resolution relating to the resolution table of grub.

==== Workaround for brightness control ====
to enable brightness control edit {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} (if this file does not exist, create it!)
<pre>
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
</pre>
for Nouveau users please change Driver to "nouveau"!!!
After restarting your machine (or X-server) the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options then in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust it´s speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To enable authentication with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the open source Nouveau driver is installed and works quite well with this model. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.
To install it you´ll need to add the RPMFusion repository described on this page [http://rpmfusion.org/Configuration]

install the driver with
<pre>yum install kmod-nvidia</pre>

==== Workaround for brightness control ====
to enable brightness control edit {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} (if this file does not exist, create it!)
<pre>
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
</pre>
for Nouveau users please change Driver to "nouveau"!!!
After restarting your machine the brightness control should work.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options then in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust it´s speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To enable authentication with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To enable authentication with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker who outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

== ThinkPad Extra keys ==
ThinkPad keys are handled by a mixture of the thinkpad_acpi, acpi button and acpi dock drivers.

== Configuration ==

=== Video card ===

By default the nouveau open source nVidia driver is installed and works quite well. However, if you need 3D graphic acceleration you need to install nVidias proprietary driver.

=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options then in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust it´s speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===

The fingerprint reader is supported by ''libfprint'' which is installed by default on Fedora 14.
You can use the following commands in a terminal to manage the fingerprint reader
<pre>
fprintd-enroll
fprintd-delete
fprintd-list
fprintd-verify
</pre>
To enable authentication with your fingerprint first you need to enroll your finger and then simply enable it in '''System --> Administration --> Authentication --> Advanced options'''.

{{NOTE|The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker named Starbug, a member of the Chaos Computer Club, Berlin, Germany. He outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.}}

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options then in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust it´s speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)

<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

To enable middle button scrolling for your TrackPoint open ''Pointing Devices'' go to ''TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint'' and check ''emulate mouse wheel''. Choose a button from the dropdown (2 = middle)

==== Touchpad ====

Under Fedora you can use two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it open ''Pointing Devices'' and navigate to scrolling

=== Fingerprint reader ===
The fingerprint reader is an INSECURE device and gives a false sense of security! There has been quite a bit of research by a hacker named Starbug, a member of the Chaos Computer Club, Berlin, Germany. He outlined in two very good talks how to forge each and every available fingerprint sensor available at the cost of a few euros, using materials from your local hardware store, a digicam and a laser printer! Here's some links:

Fingerprint recognition in supermarkets
Video tutorial for forging fingerprints

Remember, using fingerprints for authentication is much similar to having a password which is written on anything you touch.

== ThinkPad Extra keys ==
ThinkPad keys are handled by a mixture of the thinkpad_acpi, acpi button and acpi dock drivers.

== Configuration ==
=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and TrackPoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options then in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>
after installation you can find it under '''System --> Settings --> Pointing Devices'''
==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow TrackPoint you can adjust it´s speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# TrackPoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)

= Tested and Verified on Fedora 14 =

Information in this section has been tested and verified using Fedora 14 64bit.

== Installation ==

== Updating ==

== Configuration ==
=== UltraNav ===

Both Touchpad and Trackpoint work out of the box. Howerver I recommend to install gpointing-device-settings for more options then in standard mouse settings.
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>

==== Trackpoint ====
If you feel uncomfortable with the slow Trackpoint you can adjust it´s speed and sense by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script (this will not affect other pointing devices):
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# Trackpoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

==== Touchpad ====

The touchpad works out of the box but without support for two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it

=== Fingerprint reader ===

=== ThinkPad Extra keys ===
ThinkPad keys are handled by a mixture of the thinkpad_acpi, acpi button and acpi dock drivers.

=== Trackpoint ===
You can adjust the Trackpoint by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script:
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# Trackpoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

=== Touchpad ===

The touchpad works out of the box but without support for two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it (and many other features as well as Trackpoint middle button scrolling) you need to install gpointing-device-settings
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>

= Tested and Verified on Fedora 14 =

Information in this section has been tested and verified using Fedora 14 64bit.

== Installation ==

== Updating ==

== Configuration ==
=== Trackpoint ===
You can adjust the Trackpoint by passing values between 0 and 255 to {{path|/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/[speed,sensitivity,rate]}} either manually or at boot with this script:
<pre>
#! /bin/bash

# Trackpoint Settings

echo -n 200 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/speed
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/sensitivity
echo -n 255 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/rate
</pre>

save it as {{path|.trackpoint-settings}} in your home folder. 
open a terminal and change into your home folder with
<pre>cd ~</pre>
make the file executable
<pre>chmod +x .trackpoint-settings</pre>
then add the file to your {{path|rc.local}} (replace YOUR_HOME_DIR with your username!!)
<pre>su -c 'echo ". /home/YOUR_HOME_DIR/.trackpoint-settings" >> /etc/rc.local'</pre>

play with the values between 0 and 255 until it fits for your needs.

=== Touchpad ===

The touchpad works out of the box but without support for two finger scrolling. If you want to enable it you need to install gpointing-device-settings
<pre>yum install gpointing-device-settings</pre>

=== Fingerprint reader ===

=== ThinkPad Extra keys ===
ThinkPad keys are handled by a mixture of the thinkpad_acpi, acpi button and acpi dock drivers.

= Tested and Verified on ubuntu 10.10 =

Information in this section has been tested and verified using ubuntu 10.10.

== Installation ==

Installation is very easy and a breeze. The system boots really fast. Even faster then windows. I was like WOW!!!
However as the default installation came with windows and drive was not partitioned, i had to manually resize the partitions. I used the following guide [http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2010/05/26/manual-disk-partitioning-guide-for-linux-mint-9-and-ubuntu-10-04/ to partition the HDD]
{{WARN|Be careful! Make sure you have make your recovery disks and Boot disk first prior to partitioning. These disks are made in windows itself. In my case i had 2 recovery DVD's and 1 boot cd. Well this time i deleted all partitions. Why would i use windows when i can install it using virtualbox}}

== Updating ==
I recommend you update your system after installation to get all the bugs sorted out

== Configuration ==
=== Kernel ===
..

Issues

=== NVIDIA ===
Update the driver by selecting System-->Administration-->Hardware drivers. You will be prompted if you want to upgrade to the relevant driver, Accept and restart. There is a bug in ubuntu in that the startup and shutdown logos get blurred. Beats me why they have not sorted it out yet but its not "important" as the logo only comes up when you start or shut down the system.

Backlight controls are not functional while running nVidia driver 195. They can be controlled by either changing brightness in a VT or adding the following to the "Devices" section of {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}}

Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
Reboot and the keys now work

=== WiFi ===
Works smoothly.

{{cmdroot|sudo aptitude upgrade}}

Then reboot and the wifi card works flawlessly.

=== FingerPrint Reader ===

There are two possibilities:

Get the proprietary software from the [http://www.upek.com/support/downloads/linux/ Upek page] (32bit only) 
or try the [http://www.n-view.net/Appliance/fingerprint/ Fingerprint GUI project] which uses ''upeksonly'' driver from the [http://reactivated.net/fprint/wiki/Upeksonly fprint project]

=== Trackpoint ===

You can adjust the sensitivity and speed by running this script at boot

make a new config file {{path|nano /etc/init/trackpoint.conf}}

<pre>
description "Trackpoint settings"
env TPDIR=/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2
start on virtual-filesystems
script

while [ ! -f $TPDIR/sensitivity ]; do
sleep 2
done

echo -n 200 > $TPDIR/sensitivity // values from 0 to 250 for sensitivity
echo -n 150 > $TPDIR/speed // values from 0 to 250 for speed
echo -n 0 > $TPDIR/press_to_select // 1 or 0 to turn on/off press to select

end script
</pre>

from [http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Trackpoint?highlight=bios#Einstellungen-permanent-machen-ab-Ubuntu-9-10 ubuntuusers]

For some reason the settings get lost after hibernate or standby and you need to reboot to get this working again.

=== Setup ThinkVantage ActiveProtection ===

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

{{cmduser|sudo apt-get -y install tp-smapi-dkms hdapsd}}

{{cmduser|sudo modprobe tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo /etc/init.d/hdapsd restart}}

You can set the activeprotection sensivity:

cd /etc/default/
gedit hdapsd

# sensitivity
SENSITIVITY=25

Now you can try, if the modules are loaded yet. Do so with

lsmod | grep hdaps

If the installation of hdapsd succeeded, you can test it by typing this into your terminal:

sudo hdapsd -d sda -s 15 -a -v -y

If you suddenly move your laptop the output will change! (stop it with pressing Ctr + C)

Reboot. Now HDAPS should work. If you want to have a HDAPS icon in your notification area
like in Windows, simply install AVN

{{cmduser|sudo apt-get -y install avant-window-navigator awn-applets-python-core}}

Now you can run the avn

Click Applications > Accessories > Avant Window Navigator

to make the '''ThinkHDAPS''' icon appear in the navigator, right click on the navigator bar and select "Dock Preferences"

Go to applets and under the catefory "All" browse down and select the applet named '''ThinkHDAPS'''

A new applet should appear on the dock. The applet changes when you shake your laptop:)

[[File:Selection_003.png]]

=== Setup Think Sensors ===
The gnome sensors applets allow you to monitor all important temperatures, including battery, hdd, cpu and gpu and system fan

{{cmduser|sudo apt-get -y install sensors-applet}}
Add the hardware sensor monitor to the panel and then configure it. You can add the sensors eighter in the gnome panel or Avant Window Manager.
Note: I had to reboot the system first so that the applet appeared in gnome panel.

# libsensors: temp2 to 8 do not work for me. I have no idea if they are supposed to work or not.
# hddtemp: /dev/sda is the sensor of the harddisk. It is important to keep the harddisk always below 45°, normally under 40°.

ThinkPad keys are handled by a mixture of the thinkpad_acpi, acpi button and acpi dock drivers.

= Tested and Verified on ubuntu 10.10 =

Information in this section has been tested and verified using ubuntu 10.10.

== Installation ==

Installation is very easy and a breeze. The system boots really fast. Even faster then windows. I was like WOW!!!
However as the default installation came with windows and drive was not partitioned, i had to manually resize the partitions. I used the following guide [http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2010/05/26/manual-disk-partitioning-guide-for-linux-mint-9-and-ubuntu-10-04/ to partition the HDD]
{{WARN|Be careful! Make sure you have make your recovery disks and Boot disk first prior to partitioning. These disks are made in windows itself. In my case i had 2 recovery DVD's and 1 boot cd. Well this time i deleted all partitions. Why would i use windows when i can install it using virtualbox}}

== Updating ==
I recommend you update your system after installation to get all the bugs sorted out

== Configuration ==
=== Kernel ===
..

Issues

=== NVIDIA ===
Update the driver by selecting System-->Administration-->Hardware drivers. You will be prompted if you want to upgrade to the relevant driver, Accept and restart. There is a bug in ubuntu in that the startup and shutdown logos get blurred. Beats me why they have not sorted it out yet but its not "important" as the logo only comes up when you start or shut down the system.

Backlight controls are not functional while running nVidia driver 195. They can be controlled by either changing brightness in a VT or adding the following to the "Devices" section of {{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}}

Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
Reboot and the keys now work

=== WiFi ===
Works smoothly.

{{cmdroot|sudo aptitude upgrade}}

Then reboot and the wifi card works flawlessly.

=== FingerPrint Reader ===

There are two possibilities:

Get the proprietary software from the [http://www.upek.com/support/downloads/linux/ Upek page] (32bit only)
or try the [http://www.n-view.net/Appliance/fingerprint/ Fingerprint GUI project] which uses ''upeksonly'' driver from the [http://reactivated.net/fprint/wiki/Upeksonly fprint project]

=== Trackpoint ===

You can adjust the sensitivity and speed by running this script at boot

make a new config file {{path|nano /etc/init/trackpoint.conf}}

<pre>
description "Trackpoint settings"
env TPDIR=/sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2
start on virtual-filesystems
script

while [ ! -f $TPDIR/sensitivity ]; do
sleep 2
done

echo -n 200 > $TPDIR/sensitivity // values from 0 to 250 for sensitivity
echo -n 150 > $TPDIR/speed // values from 0 to 250 for speed
echo -n 0 > $TPDIR/press_to_select // 1 or 0 to turn on/off press to select

end script
</pre>

from [http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Trackpoint?highlight=bios#Einstellungen-permanent-machen-ab-Ubuntu-9-10 ubuntuusers]

=== Setup ThinkVantage ActiveProtection ===

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

{{cmduser|sudo apt-get -y install tp-smapi-dkms hdapsd}}

{{cmduser|sudo modprobe tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo /etc/init.d/hdapsd restart}}

You can set the activeprotection sensivity:

cd /etc/default/
gedit hdapsd

# sensitivity
SENSITIVITY=25

Now you can try, if the modules are loaded yet. Do so with

lsmod | grep hdaps

If the installation of hdapsd succeeded, you can test it by typing this into your terminal:

sudo hdapsd -d sda -s 15 -a -v -y

If you suddenly move your laptop the output will change! (stop it with pressing Ctr + C)

Reboot. Now HDAPS should work. If you want to have a HDAPS icon in your notification area
like in Windows, simply install AVN

{{cmduser|sudo apt-get -y install avant-window-navigator awn-applets-python-core}}

Now you can run the avn

Click Applications > Accessories > Avant Window Navigator

to make the '''ThinkHDAPS''' icon appear in the navigator, right click on the navigator bar and select "Dock Preferences"

Go to applets and under the catefory "All" browse down and select the applet named '''ThinkHDAPS'''

A new applet should appear on the dock. The applet changes when you shake your laptop:)

[[File:Selection_003.png]]

=== Setup Think Sensors ===
The gnome sensors applets allow you to monitor all important temperatures, including battery, hdd, cpu and gpu and system fan

{{cmduser|sudo apt-get -y install sensors-applet}}
Add the hardware sensor monitor to the panel and then configure it. You can add the sensors eighter in the gnome panel or Avant Window Manager.
Note: I had to reboot the system first so that the applet appeared in gnome panel.

# libsensors: temp2 to 8 do not work for me. I have no idea if they are supposed to work or not.
# hddtemp: /dev/sda is the sensor of the harddisk. It is important to keep the harddisk always below 45°, normally under 40°.

=== ThinkPad Extra keys ===
ThinkPad keys are handled by a mixture of the thinkpad_acpi, acpi button and acpi dock drivers.
