= Tested and Verified on Fedora 13 =

Information in this section has been tested and verified using Fedora 13.

== Installation ==

Installation is straight forward; you can follow the generic Fedora install instructions.

== Configuration ==

=== X Server - Intel HD Graphics===
Works out of the box, including Compiz.

One of the new Features of Fedora 13 is support for Colour Profiles (found under System > Preferences > Color Profiles). Instructions for locating the correct colour profile for your ThinkPad can be found on the [[Colour profile]] page.

'''Issues'''
* Xvideo (Xv) does not work for certain frame sizes ([https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=595448 Bugzilla]) - fixed in newer Intel Xorg driver available from [http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=179735 koji].

=== ThinkPad Extra keys ===
ThinkPad keys are handled by a mixture of the thinkpad_acpi, acpi button, acpi dock and acpi video drivers.
