Notes about supported hardware

This is a classic "Thintel" and almost everything works OOTB

BIOS

While not being free, the BIOS is fully featured with no hidden settings. VTx can be activated, and unused devices can be deactivated. The X201 supports coreboot (http://www.coreboot.org/Board:lenovo/x201)

Keyboard

All FN keys can be bound, excepted acpi functions and zoom. The Keysyms are already defined. Previous and Next next to the arrow keys work too.

ACPI

ACPI functions shortcuts work OOTB. Suspend and hibernation using systemd as well.

Trackpoint

Scrolling requires extra Xorg configuration (see https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Thinkpad/Trackpoint).

Non-free hardware
GPS/3G Modem

This is a Qualcomm Gobi 2000. It requires Microsoft Windows in order to activate the GPS (thinkvantage), getting firmwares files can be done using wine. (http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Qualcomm_Gobi_2000)

Wifi

The Wifi adapter uses a non-free firmware. Packet injection is supported.
