Kubuntu 9.10 installation notes on a ThinkPad X100e

Bluetooth

By default, the X100e ships with bluetooth disabled. There is no option for it in the BIOS; currently the only way to enable it is to install Hotkey Features Integration [1] in Windows, and then press Fn-F5 to bring up the wireless control panel.

Audio Jack

By default the audio jack doesn't disable the internal speakers in Linux, in fact it doesn't seem to work at all (at least in Ubuntu 10.04 -- apparently in Mint it works for some people). A workaround for this is to edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf and add the following line: options snd-hda-intel model=olpc-xo-1_5 and then restart alsa (or reboot).

As of the 2.6.34 kernel [2] the above workaround should no longer be needed.

Wireless b/g/n

In many distros, Ubuntu included, the r8192se module that ships with the kernel will load and successfully connect to an AP and even succeed with DHCP, but still pass no network traffic. A workaround is to get the latest driver code from realtek [3], unpack it and do a 'make' (assuming you have the equivalent of build-essentials installed) and then from the build directory, copy ./HAL/rtl8192/r8192se_pci.ko over top of e.g. /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/ubuntu/rtl8192se/r8192se_pci.ko (will vary depending on distro) and then reload the module/your wireless manager/etc.
