Installation of Kubuntu 6.10 on a ThinkPad X60s (model 1704-5UG)
Functional out of the box
With updates to 2007-01-12:
- Sound and mixer
- Graphics adapter and accelerator (Intel GMA 950)
- USB
- Lid switch (LCD off when lid closed)
- Volume control keys, keyboard light
- LCD brightness auto-adjusts depending on AC or battery operation
- Fn buttons generate ACPI events (/var/log/acpid)
- CPU frequency scaling (both cores)
- ACPI battery, thermal 1 and 2, ac
- Suspend to memory (though not with button) and resume
- Suspend to disk, "hibernate" (though not with button) and resume
- SD card station (SDIO not tested)
- WiFi (Intel 3945ABG) with WEP (WPA not tested)
- Bluetooth
- Radio enable/disable (Fn+F5) for both WiFi and bluetooth
Broken out of the box
Brightness control
Blanks X, and stays blank until X is restarted, if you increase brightness with Fn+Home. Brightness controlled by dialog windows doesn't cause this.
The workaround is to disable video.o
echo blacklist video | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/local
There's a 1 second lag between pressing the key, and the actual change in brightness. I don't know how to fix this.
acpi-support
in /etc/default/acpi-support
- Enable laptop-mode (/proc/sys/vm/laptop-mode): ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE=true
/etc/init.d/acpi-support restart
Fn+F4 and Fn+F12 suspend
cd /etc/acpi
sudo mv sleepbtn.sh{,.orig}
sudo mv hibernatebtn.sh{,.orig}
sudo ln -s sleep{,btn}.sh
sudo ln -s hibernate{,btn}.sh
Now the hotkeys work. Yay!
