Important Note

  • During the test, the SATA disk controller was configured AHCI in mode.

  • Make sure that you disable "sleep" (suspend) as soon as you have installed the system.

Configuration

Display

Thinkpad comes in multiple flavour, with different graphic adapter :

Intel

The Intel based T400 have an Integrated Intel GMA 4500MHD, also known as "Intel Mobile 4 Series" ([:device identifier/PCI:]-ID: 8086:2a40, 8086:2a42, 8086:2a43)

Console:

  • You might want to modify /boot/grub/menu.lst, to set vga=871.

X-Window with vesa driver:

  • Lenny will use the vesa driver.

  • OpenGL acceleration: ?
  • X-Randr: Trying to change the resolution /!\ kills Xorg !

  • To enable/use the external monitor, you need to reboot the laptop (and close the lid before ASAP).
  • During the test, external monitor, only support resolution < 1680x1200

X-Window with intel driver:

  • You can reconfigure /etc/X11/xorg.conf to use the intel driver:

    Section "Device"
            Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
    
            # Add this line to force the driver
            Driver          "intel"
    EndSection
  • OpenGL acceleration: ?
  • Change resolution (with X-Randr): works
  • Switching to the external monitor (with X-Randr): works
  • Using a high resolution external screen requires to modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

    Section "Screen"
            Identifier      "Default Screen"
            Monitor         "Configured Monitor"
    
            #Enable external monitor to have larger resolution that boot-time screen
            SubSection "Display"
                    Virtual         1920 1200
    
                    # OR, if you want to have a 1920x1200 monitor and the 1280x800 built-in
                    #     screen (1920+1280 = 3200) :
                    #Virtual         3200 1200
            EndSubSection
    EndSection
  • direct rendering: yes

AMD

The AMD M82XT was not yet tested.

Audio

The audio works fine out of the box ([:device identifier/PCI:]-ID: 8086:293e)

Mouse

X-Window:

  • The ?TouchPad ("SynPS/2 Synaptics ?TouchPad") works fine out of the box.

  • The Trackpoint ("TPPS/2 IBM ?TrackPoint") works fine out of the box, but require a minor configuration [:InstallingDebianOn/Thinkpad/Trackpoint:to enable scrolling].

Console:

  • gpm handles all the mouses properly.

Power Management

  • (not covered yet)

WiFi

The model is an Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5100 ([:device identifier/PCI:]-ID: 8086:4236).

  • See ["iwlagn"]

Modem

  • (not covered yet)

AMT / vPro

The iAMT controller is an Intel Chipset MEI Controller ([:device identifier/PCI:]-ID: 8086:2a44).

  • (not covered yet)

Fingerprint reader

The Fingerprint Sensor is a AES2810 from ?AuthenTec Inc ([HowToIdentifyADevice/USB:USB ID]: 08ff:2810).

3G / HSDPA

The Built-in Ericsson F3507g Mobile Broadband ([:HowToIdentifyADevice/USB:USB ID]: 0bdb:1900).
