I'm about ready to say goodbye to gentoo permanently on mine, although it's a work machine so I'm taking my time. * *What works: suspend/resume (must use Xorg KMS to have display on resume), needs sysctl twiddling for PCI resume/suspend backlight (via hack for now) keyboard (needs sed -e 's/IBM0068/LEN0068/g' on acpi_ibm.c, or nicer patch as circulated in the past) trackpad (could be better, no scrolling yet...psm doesn't seem to attach synaptics properly) ethernet intel wireless (no rt8192) graphics (via Konstantin's KMS work! thanks!) speaker.ko! Fan control works, but stops displaying fan speed sometimes (see hack for acpi_ibm.c) Expresscard Turbocore Powerd/Cpufreq VESA modes for syscons (1024x768 looks fine) * *What is unknown (to me): Card reader Fingerprint for PAM (works if you already registered it in Windows for boot) Sound (just haven't tried it probably ok it's HDA Connexant) DPMS WWAN What doesn't work: Standard consoles after X is started with KMS (this is true for all intel KMS) Display after resume (unless you use KMS/Xorg) Power saving...I'm still using more power than I'd like with KMS loaded for now Random miniPCIe cards in second slot...this is BIOS problem I assume Scrolling with psm and/or xf86-input-synaptics I'm probably forgetting some stuff that doens't work and some stuff that does (especially if obvious) Matt
