thinkpad ps/2 mouse under X with gpm
Hi, Im running debian 2.2 on a IBM Thinkpad i1200. The kernel detects a ps/2 mouse port.

The only thing that works is #/etc/X11/XF86config # Section "Pointer" # Protocol "mircosoft" # Device"/dev/gpmdata" # SampleRate60 # BaudRate 1200 # EndSection the mouse is running fine, but the third button and gpm does not work. what am I doing wrong? thanks bye Michael Linux is user friendly, it's just a bit picky about it's friends ********* | Michael Hothorn | | Administrator | | Institut für Klinische Radiologie | | Klinikum Mannheim gGmbH | | Universität Heidelberg | | Tel: 0621 383 2276 | | Fax: 0621 383 3817 | *
snd under gnome
I'm running debian 2.2 stable on a IBM thinkpad i1200. The snd card is a
Intel 7195. I'm using the latest alsa package, loading snd-intel8x0. This
seems to work (modprobe). But even when I set the volume with alsamixer, I
cannot produce any sound under gnome (I have no idea, how to test sound on
console). That is maybe because I configured gnome with no sound
support. How can I turn on sound support for the relevant debian packages?

apm support changes 2.2.19 > 2.4.16
Hi all, I switched from potato to woody on my thinkpad i1200. APM support worked for t 2.2.19 very well. Installing 2.4.16 with the same options <*> Advanced Power Management BIOS support [ ] Ignore USER SUSPEND [*] Enable PM at boot time [ ] Make CPU Idle calls when idle [ ] Enable console blanking using APM [*] RTC stores time in GMT [*] Allow interrupts during APM BIOS calls [*] Use real mode APM BIOS call to power off After booting the new kernel, apm says: Kernel build with no APM support. /proc/apm does not exist! append= apm=on in /etc/lilo.conf does not change anything any ideas? bye micha
Re: apm support changes 2.2.19 > 2.4.16
$kernelversion says 2.4, and /vmlinuz is a link to /boot/vmlinuz which is identical with /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage. This should not be the case, I'm def. booting 2.4.16 bye micha On Thu, 13 Dec 2001, Sean 'Shaleh' Perry wrote: > > On 13-Dec-2001 Michael Hothorn wrote: > > > > Hi all, > > > > I switched from potato to woody on my thinkpad i1200.

journaling file system on thinkpad?
Hi, I'm running woody with kernel 2.4.18 on an IBM i1200 Thinkpad. I am using ext2 filesystem for all partitions (but swap:-). It happend more than once, that I left the machine on battery and left the office for more than 3h Has anyone a thinkpad (or any other laptop) running a journaling filesystem (reiserfs, xfs, ext3)? Is it safe (in the kernel config it's still mentioned as EXPERIMENTAL) and running stable? And: How to switch from ext2 to journaling? I have recent mondo/mindi backups of the machine. But what about booting from it with LILO? bye micha PS This is a laptop-question; I would like to hear something about performance on IDE disks as well.

external monitor on siliconmotion chipset
Hi there, I have Debian Woody running on an IBM Thinkpad i1200, using XFree86 Version 4.1.0.1 / X Window System and the following XF86config-4 lines: Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "siliconmotion" Chipset "lynxem+" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Card0" Monitor"Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes"800x600" EndSubSection EndSection The Display is a TFT 800x600. I can connect the machine to external beamers and screens but only with the resolution and depth defined in the Screen Section (of course). Is there any way of making the card sending another resolution + depth to the external output, making it possible to connect a 15" LCD Screen? I read man siliconmotion, but there are only suggestions for multi-headed setups... bye michael Linux is user friendly, it's just a bit picky about it's friends Michael Hothorn University of Heidelberg http://www.hothorn.de/michael/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
