While we are on the subject of the Ultrabase(tm) and UltraBay(tm) there is "something else" going on.
The UltraBay might be used to hold either a CD/DVD drive or an HDD drive. Each drive has a custom-to-lenovo thin profile housing. Under win-dose, the following works: ** Select the tray icon and request "remove" the CD/DVD drive ** eventually win-dose displays "Safe to remove" ** mechanically separate the drive from the UltraBase dock ** insert the HDD ** win-dose see the drive and behaves as if a USB or similar external drive was connected The end-user can read and write the HDD. After some time, the end use repeats the above steps requesting removal of the HDD. They can then insert the CD/DVD and resume using the optical drive. Under Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, 8.10, 9.04 and 10.04 LTS: Problem #1 -- There is no way to request to remove the CD/DVD. Problem #2 -- If one boots with the HDD, one can request removal of the drive but a panic or system not responding happens when inserting the CD/DVD drive. Problem #3 -- If one uses suspend-to-disk to reconfigure, the installed drive is routinely not available after system restart. A power-off restart is required to wake whichever device is in the UltraBase supplied UltraBay. In short, win-dose supports the UltraBay while Ubuntu does not. ~~~ 0;-D -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/297663 Title: Thinkpad X61 tablet - resume hangs after undocking and subsequent suspend to RAM -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
