Proceeds will be used to further improve the drivers. Getting the full version is the best way to encourage us and ensure that this project continues. If you are wondering why a Linux driver isn't already included in the price you paid for your modem, or disagree with the practice of selling Linux . To get the driver for the mpx, download the driver distribution blogger.com from the Cisco web site. The pre-packaged rpm's are for Red Hat , which is a rather out-of-date distribution. If you don't mind building your own kernel, the mpi driver builds relatively easy in a kernel. The Linux null-modem emulator (tty0tty) is a kernel-module virtual serial port driver for Linux. This create virtual tty ports pairs and use any pair to connect one tty serial port based application to another. There are a version using pseudo-terminal (UNIX 98 style).

I recently obtained a new toy: a T40p laptop, model G1U. Here are some notes I've assembled on making it work with Linux. I started with a hard disk that I had previously had in my previous laptop, a T This way I could guarantee not damaging the existing Windows install, modem driver download for t40 linux.


If you don't have an extra disk, make sure you take a look at Klaus Weidner's Linux on T40 document before you attempt to install Linux on your laptop. Otherwise, you will very likely end up blowing away pre-installed T40 laptop utilities, and the T40 does not come with a recovery CD so you can set things right again! Rumor has it that if you tell IBM Support modem driver download for t40 linux you've purchased a new disk and you need a recovery CD, they will ship one to you; I haven't tried this yet, though.


Note: this only works if the IBM predesktop area has not been damaged. This way, you can mount the Windows XP partition under Linux. The way to do this is to enter the reinstall utility by hitting the "Access IBM" button while the system is booting up, and then selecting the reinstall option.


The laptop will warn you that this will destroy all of the data on your hard drive, as it will reformat your Windows partition before reinstalling the standard IBM software load onto the disk. Make sure you've backed up all of your data before you do this!!!. Once the predesktop utility has reloaded your hard drive, it will ask you to remove all floppies, cd-rom's, etc.


At this point, power down your machine and do not boot into Windows XP. Instead boot into a Linux system. At this point the Windows partition is still a FAT filesystem, and we just need to prevent it from being coverted into NTFS during the initial bootstrapping process. Then rename convert.


This will slightly degrade the performance of the Windows XP system, but I considered this a worthwhile tradeoff, since I do most of my work that needs Windows applications using Crossover Office, and so I rarely need to boot into Windows XP anyway, modem driver download for t40 linux.


Unfortunately, this card is not supported by the XFree86 4. I've never understood why Debian has to do modem driver download for t40 linux much work before they can support a version of XFree A quick workaround to this problem is to download the binary distribution for the X server and its run-time modules from xfree To use them, download Xxserv.


Here is the XFree86 configuration file which I used. I haven't had any problems with lockups when suspending modem driver download for t40 linux resuming, as some as reported, but nevertheless, I would recommend compiling it as a module so you can unload and reload it when necessary.


Unfortunately, the built-in modem is a winmodem software modem. There is a driver for Linux 2. Still, it seems to work, and it's better than nothing. In order to use it, download this packageand then apply this patch. You will also need to modify the makefile to point at your current kernel's include files. Then just run the commands makeand make install. Note that newer versions of the slmdm package do not work correctly, modem driver download for t40 linux.


This driver was apparently meant for a Toshiba laptop; maybe hopefully at some point the manufacturer of the modem used in the T40p can be convinced to support this wireless modem directly. The IBM Installing the Cisco card is a little complicated, in that it requires removing the keyboard and the palm rest in order to get at the mini-pci slot.


For more information on handling the installation, see the T40 Hardware Maintenance Manual. One word of warning: although the Cisco Aironet and PCMCIA card is one of the better supported and most functional wireless cards in Linux world, the Cisco mini-pci version of the card has apprently very different interfaces and is so its support is perhaps the most primitive.


This will hopefully change in the near future. The pre-packaged rpm's are for Red Hat 7. If you don't mind building your own kernel, the mpi driver builds relatively easy in a 2. Very Important: The Linux drivers only work with a very specific version of the firmware: 5b The real problem though is that if you try upgrading the Windows drivers, or try installing the wrong version of the Windows driver, it will update the firmware on your wireless card.


Without asking you first. At that point, modem driver download for t40 linux, attempts to use the Linux drivers will cause your system to crash instantly, modem driver download for t40 linux.


There are some reports that version 5, modem driver download for t40 linux. If it works for you, let me know. Unfortunately, the mpi from Cisco driver doesn't support the standard Linux wireless tools API, so the standard iwconfigiwlistet.


Instead only the propietary Cisco ioctl's are supported, so you have to use the binary-only GUI tools supplied by Cisco. The T40's bluetooth support is located on a daughter card near the left hinge on the motherboard. The daughter card contains the electronics for the modem as well as the Bluetooth radio.


The anntenna for the Bluetooth radio is located on the lower left hand side of the screed. You will also need the BlueZ user-space Linux Bluetooth protocol stack. However, the much more straightforward modem driver download for t40 linux slower serial infrared SIR works just fine. The T40p's is no exception; it can be found here.


The manual gives detailed information which are used by service technicians to replace a failed CPU fan, a gunked up keyboard, etc.


Of course, these procedures are not designed for customers to do, so if you try taking apart your brand-new toy, and screw it up, you will have undoubtedly voided your warranty. On the other hand, following the procedures really isn't rocket science; it just requires some basic skills dealing with electronics i. It is possible to order spare parts for the T40p from the IBM web site. So after your thinkpad goes off warranty, you may decide that it's not worthwhile to extend the service contract, but instead rely on "self-service".


Even before it goes off warranty, you might find it useful to order one or two extra screw packs, or an extra HDD-cover. Technically, every time you open up the guts of the Thinkpad, you're supposed to use new screws, since they are covered with a nylon coating to prevent the screws from loosening. Klaus Weidner has many useful tips on his Linux on T40 page. Fabrice Bellet also has a very good, in-depth page about the T The Linux Thinkpad mailing list has a lot of discussions about the T40 and T40p laptops, and many discoveries about how to make the T40 work better with Linux are first discussed on that mailing list.


Another good web resource is Alexander Wagner's T41 web page.
