Notes
Note that the X60 is almost identical to the X60s (the X60s has a low-powered CPU, but the rest of the hardware is the same or similar). There seems to be a lot more activity on the [LaptopTestingTeam/ThinkpadX60s] page - possibly having two pages is redundant?
Feisty
The brightness keys turn the monitor off, and it can only be turned back on by restarting X. The fix mentioned in [http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2089459 Thinkpad x60 tablet brightness and Fn buttons fixed!] works, but the on-screen display and the Brightness applet no longer register the correct brightness when adjusted using the buttons. Bug #70073.
The wireless off key turns BlueTooth off, and it can only be turned back on by booting Windows.
I've raised bug #90810 for the hotkeys that aren't setup automatically.
The external monitor key only works at boot time and the built-in LCD is then disabled.
Ejecting the docking station seems to do nothing. On removing the docking station, any mounted CDs become un-unmountable, and reconnecting doesn't change anything - a reboot is required.
The volume control buttons beep very loudly on each step. The system beep is similarly very load. It does not seem possible to control the beep volume with xset, only duration and pitch - the volume parameter seems to set duration. Bug #90818
Laptop doesn't recover from hibernate. Sleep works.
Dual-core support works out-of-the-box.
Dapper
The first try for installing did not work see [http://launchpad.net/bugs/42339 #42339]. However the second try succeeded.
I got wireless to work by installing ipw3945-1.0.0 and ieee80211-1.1.13. However the GNOME Network Manager has disappeared and I did not manged to restart. I am using KWIFIManager currently. I installed SMP package for dual core support.
