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

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

{{cmduser|sudo service hal restart}}

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

=== Enabling the fingerprint reader ===

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

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

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

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

you can then verify it with:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

{{cmduser|sudo modprobe tp-smapi}}

{{cmduser|sudo aptitude install hdapsd}}

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

== Tested: Non-functioning ==
* Experienced some random GDM crashes using proprietary nvidia driver (on model with Quadro NVS 140M).
The crashes are also present with the latest driver from this PPA:

Installing Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) on a ThinkPad T61

2009-05-11T15:02:14Z

Neurostu: /* Items that work out of the box */

Comprehensive review (including graphics fix): http://www.eastwoodzhao.com/ubuntu-904-jaunty-jackalope-on-thinkpad-t61/

== Items that work out of the box ==

'''Intel Video:''' 2D and 3D acceleration quite messed up, see section [[#Intel Graphics|below]]

'''Nvidia Video:''' 2D and 3D acceleration works

'''Wireless:''' Intel cards tested. Arethros wireless card works, but unstable. See below for instructions on how to revert back to madwifi drivers.

'''Network Card:''' Intel 10/100/1000 tested

'''Wireless switch:''' Tested.

'''Webcam:''' Works out of the box

'''Headphones:''' Works out of the box

'''Microphone:''' Just needs to be activated.

'''Keyboard Shortcuts:''' Most of them work out of the box, including the {{ibmkey|ThinkVantage|#495988}} button, although it is unassigned, see section [[#Enabling touchpad on/off key (fn-f8)|below]]

'''Fingerprint Reader:''' some packages, i.e. thinkfinger-tools, installed by default, otherwise [[Installing Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) on a ThinkPad T61#Fingerprint Reader with ThinkFinger|same fix as with 8.10]] required.

== Items that need (some) tweaking to obtain full functionality ==
=== Emulate Wheel (Middle-click scrolling) ===
[http://mvogt.wordpress.com/2008/08/15/xorg-evdev-and-emulatewheel/ Michael Vogt described] how to get middle-click scrolling to work again in Intrepid. Xorg.conf is not used to configure mice and keyboards anymore, but evdev is. This makes the configuration of middle-click scrolling a little bit different than previous versions of Ubuntu. In terminal:

{{cmduser|sudo gedit /etc/hal/fdi/policy/mouse-wheel.fdi}}

Past and save the following code, which will give vertical wheel emulation only:
<pre>
<match key="info.product" string="TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint">
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheel" type="string">true</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.EmulateWheelButton" type="string">2</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.ZAxsisMapping" type="string">4 5</merge>
<merge key="input.x11_options.Emulate3Buttons" type="string">true</merge>
</match>
</pre>
There is [http://psung.blogspot.com/2008/09/scrolling-with-thinkpads-trackpoint-in.html another method] to get horizontal scrolling as well, but I don't think it worked for me.

=== Enabling touchpad on/off key (fn-f8) ===
The procedure shown [[Install_Ubuntu_8.10_(Intrepid_Ibex)_on_a_ThinkPad_T500#Enabling_Touchpad_on.2Foff_key|here]] for T500 also works for T61.

=== Enabling [[Active Protection System]]===

for this part I mainly followed [http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Install_Ubuntu_9.04_(Jaunty_Jackalope)_on_a_ThinkPad_T400]
, which seems to work on T61 7664-1FG running ubuntu 9.04 (64bit 2.6.28-11-generic)
most of what follows was copied directly from the above reference
(I apologise BUT - I take no responsibility for any problems that may occur - I followed these instructions and it worked well for me. Unfortunately I cannot promise anything... do it at your own risk!
Anyway - the worst that could happen is that you will have to buy a new laptop ;-)

Another thing worth noting - it seems you have to repeat all this after each kernel upgrade (anyone knows how to get this done atomatically?)

The original author urges corrections and offers help, therefore I will quote his original lines also here:
"
Please feel free to correct mistakes. If you have trouble, don't be shy and contact me with jabber: jango4@jabber.org
"

'''Here is a Step by Step guidance [[How to protect the harddisk through APS]] with Kernel 2.6.28!'''

At first you have to delete existing kernel modules to make space for the new ones (Press ENTER after each line):
(these did not exist for me originally)
sudo rm /lib/modules/$KVER/kernel/ubuntu/misc/thinkpad_ec.ko
sudo rm /lib/modules/$KVER/kernel/ubuntu/misc/tp_smapi.ko
sudo rm /lib/modules/$KVER/kernel/drivers/hwmon/hdaps.ko

Then download the newest packages:

You will need
*tp_smapi-0.4 from here: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1212&package_id=171579
*gnome-hdaps-applet-20081204.tar.gz from here: http://www.zen24593.zen.co.uk/hdaps/
(in the original link there were explanations for hdapsd installation as well. I didn't follow them as the hdapsd package in the ppa repositories seems to work - ver 1:20090129-1ubuntu1~ppa3~jaunty1 )

Save this files and unpack them (following the original link I'll assume it was unpacked on the desktop).

Open a Terminal in the tp_smapi directory in order to attempt kernel modules loading:

sudo make load HDAPS=1 FORCE_IO=1

If there is written "drivers successfully loaded", you can type this for installation:

sudo make install HDAPS=1 FORCE_IO=1

To laod this modules on startup you have to write them into the /etc/modules file:

sudo gedit /etc/modules

Append this to the file:

thinkpad_ec
tp_smapi
hdaps

Edit /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf (for me it did not exist before)

sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf

Adding the following lines:

# enable thinkpad_ec
options thinkpad_ec force_io=1

# option to correctly set tilting through hdaps sensor
options hdaps invert=1

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

lsmod | grep hdaps

if not perform:

sudo modprobe thinkpad_ec tp_smapi hdaps

Then install this packages:

sudo apt-get install hdaps-utils hdapsd

Afterwards you can test hdaps-gl (with typing hdaps-gl in terminal) which shows the position of your Laptop.

If hdapsd is not working you can compile it from source as found in [http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Active_Protection_System]

To test it, you can type 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 Str + C)

The last step is, to copy an overworked initiation-script over the existing one.

The first line will download it, the second will set rights and the third one copies it to the right position. (Press ENTER after each!)

wget http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/~a0604095/hdapsd
sudo chmod 733 hdapsd
sudo cp hdapsd /etc/init.d/

Now you can start hdapsd with typing

sudo /etc/init.d/hdapsd start

After a reboot everything should start automatically and work correctly! You can change the sensitivity value and other things in this file: "'''/etc/default/hdapsd'''".
To see the effects you have to type "sudo /etc/init.d/hdapsd restart" to restart hdapsd!

To install the gnome-panel-applet type this lines into the terminal:

sudo apt-get install libpanel-applet2-dev
cd Desktop/gnome-hdaps-applet-20081204
gcc $(pkg-config --cflags --libs libpanelapplet-2.0) -o gnome-hdaps-applet gnome-hdaps-applet.c
sudo cp gnome-hdaps-applet /usr/bin/
sudo mkdir /usr/share/pixmaps/gnome-hdaps-applet/
sudo cp *.png /usr/share/pixmaps/gnome-hdaps-applet/
sudo cp GNOME_HDAPS_StatusApplet.server /usr/lib/bonobo/servers/

===Fixing Atheros Ath5K Stability Issues===
If you're having issues with the built-in ath5k wireless driver, try installing Jaunty backports.

{{cmduser| sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-jaunty}}

This will take you back to madwifi (ath_pci) a la Intrepid (and ath5k will be blacklisted). Since installing the backports, stability issues related to ath5k and AR5212 wireless card have disappeared. Speed is also back to acceptable, instead of quite sluggish (slow SSH/SFTP, slow DNS lookups, etc).

Alternate Atheros "madwifi" driver was additionally enabled under System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers

===Intel Graphics===
There have been significant regressions with many intel graphics chip in 9.04 Jaunty. There is an active [http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 Ubuntu Forums thread] discussing the problem.

To significantly improve performance, install the 2.6.30-rc4 kernel and headers from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ . The thread was written when the rc2 version was the latest, but the rc2 kernel disables screen brightness shurtcut keys. The rc4 kernel has fixed that.

Add the xorg-edgers PPA, as per the thread.

Ammend your xorg.conf file to include the following:
<pre>Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
Option "AddARGBVisuals" "True"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
EndSection
</pre>

and fix the MTRR issue.

The script fixmtrr.sh should read:
<pre>
echo "Before:"
echo "-------"
cat /proc/mtrr
echo "base=e0000000 size=0x10000000 type=write-combining" >| /proc/mtrr

echo ""
echo "After:"
echo "------"
cat /proc/mtrr
</pre>

{{WARN|The new kernel will disable usplash, but the previous kernel can be booted from GRUB.}}

====Compiz====
The Intel graphics chip has been '''blacklisted''' upstream by Compiz. To ignore the blacklist, download and run the script Compiz-Check available [http://forlong.blogage.de/entries/pages/Compiz-Check here].

Installing XP on Thinkpad T61

2008-04-28T15:41:49Z

Neurostu: â†Created page with 'Several users have reported getting a "Setup did not find anyhard disk drives installed in your computer." The installer then quits, in order to continue the install you ...'

Several users have reported getting a "Setup did not find anyhard disk drives installed in your computer." The installer then quits, in order to continue the install you must edit the BIOS. Open the bios (press the blue ThinkVantage button on startup) and change the HDD mode from AHCI to Compatability.

XP will then install without any problems.

Installing Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) on a ThinkPad T61

2008-04-26T15:15:29Z

Neurostu: /* Suspend with Nv140m */

== Features ==
=== Open Source Intel Wifi Driver ===
Intel has created a new Linux Wifi driver project for Intel Wireless cards, "[[Iwlwifi]]". This driver is Open Source and no longer requires the Intel daemon to run in addition. This project will support the [[:Category:T61 | T61]]'s Wifi [[Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Mini-PCI Express Adapter | Intel 3945ABG network adapter]] and [[Intel PRO/Wireless 4965AGN Mini-PCI Express Adapter| Intel 4965AGN network adapter]].

An automatic migration will occur when upgrading from [[Installing Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) on a ThinkPad T61|Ubuntu 7.10]] to Ubuntu 8.04. However, there is a caveat to be aware of:
* The new driver wants to name the interface wlan0 (by default -- you can rename it to anything you want), and requires a different entry in {{path|/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules}}, which handles the naming of interfaces. Simply edit this file and delete your old entry for the ipw3945 driver, then unload/reload the new driver, or simply reboot. A new entry will automatically be created that is appropriate for the new driver. Here's an example of the lines to delete:
<pre>
# PCI device 0x8086:0x4227 (ipw3945)
SUBSYSTEM=="net", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTRS{address}=="00:1b:77:a4:0e:2f", NAME="eth1"
</pre>

If you need to perform a manual migration, the Ubuntu Help Community has written some [https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/iwlwifi_Intel_3945_4965/gutsy documentation] that will make this very easy to do.

=== Compiz and XV Playback on Intel GM965/GL960 ===

With Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) you currently have to choose between using Compiz and working video playback using XV. On 8.04 (Hardy Heron) alpha 5 you can play videos using XV under compiz, it works right out of the box using the Live-CD.

=== Suspend with Nv140m ===
Suspend may not work even after editing acpi-support. Enable bluetooth (Fn+F5) may result in a successful suspend. NOTE: that although the wifi led does not change when Fn+F5 is used, the wifi is still toggled by this key.

'''Hal "S3 BIOS" parameter issue!'''

After doing the changes to the /etc/default/acpi-support file (described [http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Ubuntu_7.10_(Gutsy_Gibbon)_on_a_ThinkPad_T61#How_to_Suspend_with_nVidia_140m.2F570m here]), I for one, managed to have '''stable''' suspend support by creating a new file called: '''/etc/hal/fdi/information/lenovo.fdi''' with the following contents:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> 
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="system.hardware.vendor" string="LENOVO">
<merge key="power_management.quirk.s3_bios" type="bool">false</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
</pre>
{{NOTE|The problem (after reading the HAL and pm-utils documentations) is the fact that (as far as I can tell) the T61 Lenovo doesn't allow the S3 BIOS to be called *during* suspend/resume, which HAL seems to do by default (who knows, maybe there are T61s out there that do work with this default)!

This did not seem to be necessary for previous versions of Ubuntu. Also note that I have an NVIDIA card so I have no idea what to do for Intel versions.The change should also be resistant to HAL and pm-utils upgrades.}}

'''Still no suspend with nvs140m? Got Modell 6460?'''

Fix above didn't work for me on a 15.4 wide T61 Modell 6460 with nv140m. Bios is updated to 2.14 but didn't change anything, except the usb bug is fix. Suspend seems to work fine, but resume gives me a black screen (backlight off - no reaction to brightness up) and I can hear 2 beeps. Most of the time I can reboot with ctrl+alt+delete but the screen stays dark until bios.

follow the instructions above but create the new file called: '''/etc/hal/fdi/information/lenovo.fdi''' with the following contents instead:
<pre>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> 
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="system.hardware.vendor" string="LENOVO">
<merge key="power_management.quirk.s3_mode" type="bool">true</merge>
<merge key="power_management.quirk.s3_bios" type="bool">false</merge>
<merge key="power_management.quirk.save_pci" type="bool">true</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
</pre>

Also you want to set the following parameter in

{{path|/etc/default/acpi-support}}
<pre>
SAVE_VIDEO_PCI_STATE=true
</pre>

{{NOTE|This works for me with mode 6460, except for one problem: You may get a white screen in xorg after resume when using compiz. If you don't have a 6460 with nvidia this file may break things for you because it doesn't care about the modell and sets the parameter for any lenovo product}}
{{HELP|Anyone with more knowledge of hal and acpi-support is welcome to clean this up. I also don't know why this setting can be done via hal and in acpi-support}}

[[Category: T61]]

=== TrackPoint ===
The [[TrackPoint]] works out of the box, but does not scroll. To enable using the middle mouse button to scroll, replace the "Configured Mouse" section in
{{path|/etc/X11/xorg.conf}} with the following:
<pre>
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Trackpoint"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ImPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "true"
Option "EmulateWheel" "true"
Option "EmulateWheelButton" "2"
