Hi *,

I'm trying to get all the features of a ThinkPad 600E to
work with Debian potato.

What I have:

- all my PCMCIA-cards (xircom, fritz, adaptec) work
- sound (cs4232) works
- X (neomagic, 16bit) works

What I want:

- serial interface is detected but cannot be used
- irda-port?!
- internal modem
- sound does not load automatically
- I cannot have pci-support in the kernel when I want to
  use my PCMCIA-cards (I installed RH on another partition
  and their kernel uses pci-support _and_ PCMCIA works -
  at least with the notebook of my colleague)

I have nearly all the information you can get from the web
concerning ThinkPads. What I need is the address of
somebody who knows how the thing internally works -
especially as I have the impression that configurations
under windows (I have that on one partition) have some
effects on the linux-installation on my other partition.

What I really don't understand is, why the serial port
does not work.

When will the first ThinkPads with preinstalled Linux be
available from IBM?
