<p>Initial Installation Instruction for OpenSUSE 13.2 on a ThinkPad T500</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Model ==<br /> Lenovo Thinkpad {{T500}} 2056-Y4R, BIOS 6FET92WW (3.22), ECP 7VHT16WW (1.06)<br /> <br /> == General ==<br /> This installation instruction describes these parts that do not or do not completely work after my {{OpenSUSE}} 13.2 DVD installation using KDE 4 as window manager. If anything does not work as expected, please have a look at the older {{Install|OpenSUSE| 12.3| T500}} for possible workarounds that I forgot to mention here. However, almost everything seems to work fine.<br /> <br /> == Graphics ==<br /> Since the default BIOS settings [[Switchable Graphics]] caused high power consumption in the past, I changed the BIOS settings from Switchable to Internal graphics ''before'' installation. Please read [[Switchable Graphics]] for the pros and cons. Note that I did ''not'' test the ATI graphics.<br /> {{NOTE|Any time you change the BIOS setting after installation, you may have to execute {{cmdroot|mkinitrd}} in order to prevent loading of unnecessary modules.}}<br /> <br /> == Power Management ==<br /> Suspend to RAM works out of the box. Note that I neither tested the default Switchable graphics BIOS setting nor Suspend to Disk.</div>
