Worked with Tweeking
- WiFi. Must be turned on manually because the toggle wireless key on the keyboard doesn't work.
- Right-click on the "NetworkManager Applet" and select "Enable Wireless" and "Enable Networking".
- Integrated Microphone. Must be turned on manually.
- Left-click on the gnome-panel's sound button and select "Sound Preferences...". On the "Input" tab uncheck "Mute" and increase the "Input Volume" to 100%.
Didn't work
- Special Keys
- Microphone Mute (F4)
- Toggle Camera (F5)
- Toggle Wireless (F9)
- Hard Drive Active Protection System (No luck yet)
- Thinkpad-acpi. "Not yet supported ThinkPad detected!" is displayed at startup. Since acpi isn't working, battery life in Ubuntu is less than in Windows.
Untested
- Special Keys
- Change Display Settings (F6)
- Bluetooth - Turns on at startup but functionality was not tested.
Disabling Bluetooth
By default Bluetooth Radio is enabled at startup which drains battery life. If you never use Bluetooth and want it disabled append...
service bluetooth stop
...to /etc/init.d/rc.local
