IBM Thinkpad R40
hello,
I got a new Thinkpad R40 with this configuration:
P4 M 1.9, ATI Radeon 7500 mobility, 1400x1050 screen.
The install (sarge) worked fine but there are two main things I have to get
to work before I can be happy.
First, related to some prior posts, the 3d acceleration is not yet working:
with the std-Xserver (radeon-driver; radeon-kernel-module also
loaded, 2.4.20) glxinfo looked fine (direct rendering:yes and lots of
extensions recognised), but glxgears crashed.
So I got all the drm-trunk stuff mentioned earlier, compiled the kernel and
the new module, it loads fine.
Now glxgears no longer crashes, but is slow (460 fps),
although glxinfo still looks ok except maybe OpenGL version string: 1.2
Mesa 5.0 (shouldnt it be VA Linux?), and no 3dnow. output is attached.
I ran out of ideas now, help appreciated, I also plan to submit a guide to
linux-laptop.net when finished, as the R40 is still missing there.
Second, more important, APM. The laptop comes back up after suspend, but
although the screen turns on, it stays black and I have no idea how to get
the picture back. As it is ssh-able I can shut it down properly anyhow.
I tried/did so far:
* apm kernel module
* thinkpad modules and tpctl, the modules load but seem not to work
properly as they do not provide all in /dev/thinkpad/ that they should.
maybe the apm module must not be present but it gets loaded without it
being included in /etc/modules (explanations welcome), and i cannot remove
it.
* apmd runs
* apm command works and shows connection status and battery status.
* solution idea: write something smart in /etc/apm/resume.d/ that does the
trick - ideas?
I havent tried acpi yet as the thinkpad modules and packages look promising
and have lots of features.
thanks in advance
thomas
