Hello!

For the "Here is a Step by Step guidance How to protect the harddisk through APS with Kernel 2.6.28!" section.

I have a T400 with Jaunty 2.6.28-11-server kernel. For me in the /etc/modprobe.d/local.conf the thinkpad_ec force_io=1 option didn't work. After removing it everything worked fine.

Thanks, Swissz

"Before Installation" - Section

Actually the before installation section is outdated, since Ubuntu 9.04 (the final release) is able to boot on a T400 WITHOUT disabeling switchable graphics in BIOS!

But after installing fglrx the system will not boot until the driver is removed. (So, it looks as if you have to choose between fumbling with BIOS or not using ATI graphics)

Mouse Wheel Emulation

For me the mouse wheel emulation did only work after wrapping the xml file in <deviceinfo version="0.2">...</deviceinfo>. This seems to be the correct way of doing it, but I know practically nothing about hal. --caramdir 16:01, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
