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) - 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

Note: I don't have any of these issues on Ubuntu 9.04 on my x300, maybe it is Kubuntu support that is broken? -- Rboissat

Note: To speed up adobe flash in full srcen mode create file /etc/adobe/mms.cfg with OverrideGPUValidation=true in it -- kenny
