2. CentOS-6
2.1. Installation
CentOS 6 was successfully installed with an i386 Net Install image over PXE; it downloaded installation files from a local repository. The laptop's gigabit Ethernet port was used, however, it appears that the CentOS 6 kernel also supports the ipw2200-based wifi card; as such, a Net Install over wifi is possible. Bear in mind that the laptop's wifi card only supports Wireless-B/G and so a Net Install over wifi will be somewhat slower than a Net Install over LAN.
2.2. Issues
Unfortunately, it appears that the fglrx93 graphics driver, required for the ATI X300 graphics chip, is not available for C6; advanced features such as 3D acceleration are not available or will perform slowly.
2.3. Models tested
- 2668
3. CentOS-5
3.1. Installation
CentOS 5 installs flawlessly from either an installation CD/DVD or a Net Install CD. If you are going to use a Net Install image, connect the laptop to a wired network until you configure the wireless networking card; the wireless interface will not work (see Post-installation notes below).
3.2. Post-installation notes
You will need to set up two third party repositories, RPMForge and ELRepo, for these steps. For more information, warnings, and instructions for setting up and using RPMForge and ELRepo, see the guide on Third-Party Repositories.
3.2.1. Wireless Firmware for ipw2200
The wireless card on the laptops tested, the Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Mini-PCI adapter, requires additional firmware to operate. Install the ipw2200-firmware package from RPMForge.
3.2.2. Graphics Drivers for ATI Mobility Radeon X300
For models 2668, 2669, 2686 and 2687, which have the ATI Mobility Radeon X300, ATI's binary driver should be installed for optimal performance, hardware-accelerated 3D rendering, improved power management, and various other bells and whistles. Install the kmod-fglrx93 package from ELRepo. Reboot after installing; no further tweaking should be needed.
3.3. Issues
3.3.1. Power issues
Both Hibernation and Suspend are non-functional. The 'moon' indicator turns solid, but the laptop does not actually enter suspend or hibernation, and requires a hard-reboot. This appears to be a kernel panic; the caps-lock key flashes on and off. In addition, the kernel occasionally panics on shutdown; once it panicked after plugging in the power cord while running on battery power. These issues could possibly be ACPI related. CentOS 6 solves these problems and is fully compatible with this laptop, so it is recommended that new users install CentOS 6 instead.
3.3.2. Using both LCD and CRT screens
When giving presentations it is not possible to use both the LCD and CRT output because of what seems to be a power usage issue (even when using a power outlet). The CRT output on an LCD projector moves whirly. This happens with the integrated Intel GM915 card. (1872-CTO)
(This issue was fixed with a newer xorg-x11-drv-i810 driver from CentOS 5)

These modelshave Intel(R) Centrino(TM)mobile technology.
All of these ThinkPad T43p models havea modem**, 1Gigabit Ethernet, ThinkPad UltraNav,IBM Embedded Security Subsystem2.0,and Bluetooth wireless technology.
Note: Preloads are described in the Description sections ofthis document.
This is a GAV PLET. A load sheet will be provided.These new EMEA GAV part numbers should be set up in SAP as variants.
GAVs are orderable part numbers which have a Sales Building Blockstructure. They will phase in over 2004 as new product announcementsoccur. They are intended to look and act just like an orderable PNwith one main difference/benefit: Supply is not allocated at the MTMlevel.
As supply is not allocated at the MTM level, all orderable PNs can pullsupply from the total pool of available component supply. This willgreatly improve delivery speed and accuracy of committed deliverydates.

Operating Environment
ThinkPad computers are designed, built, and tested for highquality and reliability. When used properly in standard businessenvironments, a ThinkPad system should be a reliable computing assetfor many years.Harsh environments and abuse can damageThinkPads since they are not intended to withstand extremetemperatures, dust, shock, or other severe physical environments.ThinkPad systems should not be used in unsuitable environments. Forexample, a ThinkPad system should not be used in non-stationaryenvironments, such as in-vehicle installations, without additionalcasing orshock dissipation. IBM warrants that the ThinkPadnotebook willconform to its Official Published Specifications when used in asuitable physical operating environment.
Air temperature:
Note: The maximum temperature when the system is on is linearlydecreased from 8,000 ft to 10,000 ft.

Compatibility and supported products
Contact your IBM representativefor a list of supported features and options.
PC card
The ThinkPad T43p computerconforms to the PC Card Standard 95,which encompasses both the former 16-bit Release 2.1 card standardand the new 32-bit CardBus card. Other PCcard adapters that comply with the PC CardStandard may also function, but have not been tested byIBM.
Vendor software compatibility
IBM tests a large number of commonly used and available applicationsfor compatibility with its ThinkPad systems, using supportingoperating systems and configurations. In general, you can expectthat most vendor applications designed to run on supported operatingsystems and Intel-compatible system architectures should be compatiblewith a ThinkPad system. Some configurations, however, may not becompatible.
IBM does not warrant or support vendor software products, norguarantee compatibility of those products with IBM systems.Refer to the applicable warranty and license terms provided by therespective vendors.
ThinkPad T43p systems contain BIOS in flash ROM,and a GUI to set up the system andpower management features Windows users.BIOS provides the hardware instructions and interfaces designedto support the standard features of the ThinkPad T43pcomputerand to maintain compatibility with many software programs currentlyoperating under Windows2000 andWindows XP Professional.
