IBM ThinkPad R52 on Ubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04)
April 23rd, 2007 by aizatto
Thanks to the help of YoonKit, I was able to get the latest release of Ubuntu Feisty Fawn 7.04.
I tried downloading it as soon as it was possible, woke up in the morning. Did an md5 check and BAM. It was corrupted. Like damn.
Luckily for me the night before I emailed out to the MyOSS list if anyone was able to burn it, bring me a copy.
Initial Impressions
My god the default theme is glossy. God bless themes. But I’ll keep it on for a while.
Compared to the last installation of Ubuntu Edgy Eft (6.10), there are no large problems. My widescreen works as an external monitor. Everything seems fine.
Xorg
Namely my mouse scrolling with the middle button.

Did you succeed using suspend2 with your R52? Is it an ATI or an Intel video card?
