## page was renamed from LaptopTestingTeam/ThinkpadR31 * Contact: [[PaulSladen]] * Make: IBM (aka really an Acer) * Brand: Think''''''Pad * Model: R31 2656-6FG * Website: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=ibm&lndocid=MIGR-40213 == Current Issues == ## List any issues you have with the current development release here * `i8042.nomux=1` is required on the kernel commandline to '''stop erratic pointer movement''' caused by the buggy embedded/keyboard controller combo, this occurs approximately every 60seconds when using ACPI and the `batt-applet` queries state. With ACPI disabled, the erratic movement is continous, rendering the machine completely unusable with no way to switch to a virtual-terminal. [[http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15335|#15335]] * '''Interupts are not being routed'''/enabled for the mini-pci wireless card. * Tested with `pci=routeirq`, `pci=noacpi`, `hostap_pci` and `orinoco_pci` drivers. * The machine must have '''LCD-stretch turned ''off'' ''' (unstretched) for installation and vga16 boot, otherwise the display can't be read. This can be done with 'Fn-F8' (not marked on the key) or via the BIOS setup (Press F1). * '''`ibm_acpi` is not being loaded''' and says ''No such device''. On the R31, only the Fn-F3 and Fn-F12 combinations do anything. This should have been fixed in `ibm_acpi 0.10`. [[http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15332|#15332]] * ACPI '''DSDT is buggy'''. Breezy issues: * PCMCIA IDE devices don't get mounted because `(none)` shows up as '''`/dev/hde` rather than `/dev/hde1`''' * Totem opens on DVD insert but then crashes with ''An error occured: Error invoking "dvdnav_get_next_block": Error reading from DVD.'' * CD-ROM/DVD shows up in ''Computer - File Browser'' as a removable disk-drive (which I guess it kind of is), rather than a CD. On the desktop, the icon is correct. * `setserial` is not installed by default. [[http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15331|#15331]] * Ctrl-Alt-F1 does not work from X to switch to virtual terminals. * Icons mounted on the desktop appear on top of each other in the top-left hand corner. eg. an iPod and an Audio-CD. == Hardware details == || || in Hoary (current stable)? || in Breezy (current development)? || || Installation works? || || Dist-upgrade from Preview CD || ||<-4 tablewidth="75%"> '''Hardware Information''' || ||<-4> '''Screen & Monitors''' || ||<|2> '''Device''' ||<-2> '''Works?''' ||<|2> '''Bug #''' || || in Hoary (current stable)? || in Breezy (current development)? || || Screen || Untested || Yes || || || Correct resolution? || Untested || Yes || || || Correct refresh rate? || Untested || Yes || || || 3D Acceleration || Untested || Yes || || || External monitor works? || Untested || Yes || || || External monitor - mirrors || Untested || Yes, `i810switch crt on` || || || External monitor - extend desktop || Untested || No, How? || || ||<-4> '''Power Management''' || || Battery detected? || Untested || Untested || || || Hibernates? || Untested || Untested || || || Sleep || Untested || Untested || || || Dim monitor on battery || Untested || Yes, in Hardware || || || Blank monitor on inactivity || Untested || Yes || || || Lid Close || Untested || Yes || || || Cpu frequency scaling || Untested || Yes || || ||<-4> '''Sound''' || || Sound works? || Untested || Yes || || || Correct volume? || Untested || Yes || || || Hardware volume switch || Untested || Mute: yes.
