IBM thinkpad issue

[dekeijzer]

Hello,

I installed sabayon on my brand new thinkpad t60p and was happy to see everything was working right out of the box.
Now I`m discovering some things don`t work though. It`s not that big of a deal but it would be great to have all buttons on my keyboard working.
Then I saw a special ibm thinkpad laptop option, however the page is greyed out. I does have 2 lines on the top telling me what to do.. But I really have no idea what it means..

And there is another thing, it has a dual core processor. Does sabayon automatically detect this and configure it for optimal use or do I have to enable anything?

Thanks

Hi
I've installed Sabayon on several Thinkpads now, Z60m, Z61p, R40 R52.

Most stuff works out of the box, but some stuff you need to configure a few things.

Like the Ultrabay, which I have working.

There is a fab website dedicated to Thinkpads with Linux http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/ThinkWiki

That option is in the KDE control centre is no good, unfortunatly.

As for the dual core issue - did you install the 64 bit version of sabayon? You need this to enable the dual-cores.

If you could be more specific whats not working I might be able to help you out

Well my biggest problem is the audio control keys not working with amarok.
The keys I would like to use are fn+ arrow key. Amarok does not recognize any of these keys. And when trying to configure at the global shortcuts section of amarok when I press them no action is detected.
