− | * | + | * To control backlight using the hotkeys, calling xbacklight on the command line works, and you can use xmodmap to map the keycodes to XF86KbdBrightnessDown and XF86KbdBrightnessUp, which you can then tell your window manager mean it should call xbacklight. ''Don't'' try to use tpb callbacks to call xbacklight, because calling xbacklight apparently generates events which makes tpb think buttons have been pressed, which sends the machine into a horrid cycle of backlight changes. |

e1000e eeprom issue
I was affected by the eeprom corruption issue of kernels 2.6.27-rc*. Could anyone with a 6478-14G please post their eeprom contents so I can find out which bytes have been changed? The first six bytes are the MAC addres, you can remove it if you want to. You can get them with
ethtool -e eth0
Thank you very much! --Bse 16:45, 9 November 2008 (CET)

First Report
I just bought one of these (model 6478-14G) and have been playing with Ubuntu Hardy Alpha 6 on it. Thus far:
Things that work:
* Graphics (including 3d and Xv). The chipset appears to be very similar to that of the X61 * trackpad and trackpoint, including scrolling * Ethernet * Wifi * Bluetooth (and its enablement can be controlled via thinkpad_acpi) * DVD drive * Camera (although I have managed to make the AVC kernel driver oops) * [2008-4-27] You'll need gstreamer > 0.10.15 to get the camera working * Hibernate (works properly with bios 1.02a) * RF killswitch (turns off wifi and bluetooth devices)
Things that don't work:
* Audio: * Latest ALSA release shows Master and PCM only in the mixer and produces no audio * [2008-03-11] Nightly alsa-driver snapshot populates the mixer with more realistic entries, but is still silent on both speakers and headphones. * [2008-03-14] An extremely helpful ALSA developer is making the necessary changes. An early version is able to play sound and most of the card/mixer features work. * [2008-04-25] Patch is in git kernel now, we won't officially see it until 2.6.26 is released. * Suspend - the machine appears to suspend, but right at the last minute starts up again * This turns out to be the ethernet driver failing to suspend. Removing it before suspending works fine and can be done by putting SUSPEND_MODULES="e1000" in /etc/pm/config.d/local * Backlight control (although this is probably a recently introduced kernel bug in Hardy, which should be reverted before release) [2008-04-28] Backlight control works fine with Hardy final release. * WiFi LED * [2008-04-24] Wifi LED works fine with 2.6.24 and thinkpad_acpi - fritz
Things not tested yet:
* Fingerprint scanner ** [2008-04-24] works perfectly with ThinkFinger * USB ports (but hey, these are bound to work) ** [2008-04-24] No issues about that, works fine with flash drive and external HDD as well as HID devices * External VGA port

tp_smapi?
What about tp_smapi's battery control and hdaps? --Thinker 03:15, 15 March 2008 (CET)
the battery control entries seem to be there, but not hdaps --cmsj 00:56, 26 March 2008 (GMT)
You shouldn't need hdaps anyway since the only storage option is a SSD. It's interesting though that the hdaps hardware is present. I guess lenovo plans to offer an hdd version in the future... --fritz 18:44, 29 March 2008 (CST)
- Both hdaps and tp_smapi work for me. Bse 11:12, 19 April 2008 (CEST)
Kernel >= 2.6.24
Kernel 2.6.23 allowed for S3 mode (suspend to RAM) with the same issue as above (would wake up immediately if ethernet module was not unloaded first). An update to 2.6.24 removed S3 capability altogether, even with acpi_bios=s3_bios. I also noticed that thinkpad_acpi no longer shows a brightness entry in /proc/acpi/ibm unless you explicity pass brightness_enable=1 to the module. Has anyone tried 2.6.24 or 2.6.25 with any luck? --fritz 8:56, 25 April 2008
X300 with Debian Lenny --- a handful of failures, most of which are worked around
Using the latest Debian Lenny kernel, I had a host of problems:
- Ethernet won't run at 1000MB/s. Attempts to force it using ethtool lock the machine
- I had the same suspend problem an earlier user supported. Adding the e1000e driver in /etc/pm as other user described fixes this.
- To control backlight using the hotkeys, calling xbacklight on the command line works, and you can use xmodmap to map the keycodes to XF86KbdBrightnessDown and XF86KbdBrightnessUp, which you can then tell your window manager mean it should call xbacklight. Don't try to use tpb callbacks to call xbacklight, because calling xbacklight apparently generates events which makes tpb think buttons have been pressed, which sends the machine into a horrid cycle of backlight changes.
- Getting wifi up is slightly elaborate. I downloaded the firmware-iwlwifi package from Debian, but attempting to bring the wifi up bricked the machine with a blinking CapsLock light. After rebooting, wifi seems to work.
- I had trouble with sound in Skype until I realized I needed to use alsamixer to set the input to the internal mic not just the mic
