W500 this is work under progress

I got a brand new W500 and installed Lucid Lynx Beta 1 on it, without changing any bios settings. Everything seems to work remarkably smoothly.

Things not working/issues

As I've found most of the components are just working out of the box, I will only list the issues I have found so far:

  • Suspend/Resume
    • after suspend, bluetooth applet crashed

Display / Xorg

The laptop comes with Switchable Graphics, so you can choose on your own which GPU to use. I haven't messed with whatever ubuntu chose. There is more useful information here: Install Mandriva 2009.0 on a ThinkPad W500
