ThinkPad Troubleshooting

Instructions for getting your Lenovo Thinkpad X201 & X200 laptop working with Qubes/Linux

For being able to boot the installer from USB, you have to disable VT-d in the BIOS. Enter the BIOS by hitting F1, go to Config - CPU and then disable there VT-d.

After the installation, you have to set a startup-parameter for Xen, to be able to activate VT-d again:

  1. Open a terminal in dom0
  2. Edit /etc/default/grub
  3. Add to the line GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT the setting iommu=no-igfx, save and quit
  4. sudo grub2-mkconfig --output /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Then reboot, enter BIOS and re-enable VT-d.

Getting scrolling with the Trackpoint and the Middle Button to work

    #!/bin/sh
xinput set-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Evdev Wheel Emulation" 1
xinput set-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Evdev Wheel Emulation Button" 2
xinput set-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Evdev Wheel Emulation Timeout" 200
xinput set-prop "TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint" "Evdev Wheel Emulation Axes" 6 7 4 5
