No special remarks about Ubuntu 9.04 installation on Lenovo X300.

Everything works, including brightness control with fn-keys.

Problems: - Hibernate/Suspend (wake up leads to login-screen) -- fixed

- some Fn-keys don't do anything (for example Fn+F2 doesn't lock the screen)

- No scrolling with the Trackpoint as long as Touchpad not disabled in BIOS

- tp-fancontrol doesn't start any more as init-script
