 Lenovo ThinkPad W500Mark: Average (This report is prepared by ecomstation.ru scout), source of information: Jan van Wijk, http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eComStation
 
It is actually dual-boot at the moment, Windows-7 and eCS 2.0
 
Thinkpad W500, product ID 40625YG, also known as 'NRA5YMH'
 
Does not work:
 
   Gigabit network adapter
   Intel Wireless N, 5300 chipset
   Wireless WAN (3G networks)
   Suspend/Resume, Shutdown (but I have to tried very hard yet)
   Bleutooth
   Firewire
   Web-cam
   SD Card-reader (I think, have not really tested yet :-)
 
So, quite a few things do not work, but looking at the bright side,
most of what I really NEED does work:
 
   eCS installs without too much problems
   Video works with Panorama in 1680x1050 resolution and looks really nice. (video performance in text window, like 'dir /s' not very fast, but good enough)
   SMP works using ACPI.PSD /SMP /APIC (2 cores, 2.8 GHz each)
   USB works fine
 
The most pressing thing is networking at the moment, I can live
without wireless on this laptop, but for serious work on it I really
need one of the networking options to work.
 
Fortunately, a driver for the Gigabit cards is in the works.
Just need some patience for it to become available ...

 |  - Gigabit Ethernet is working with the Mensys e1000e driver (ecomstation betazone).
 - 1920x1200 hd screen is working with the widescreen patch together with the panorama driver ([url]). I'm using the intel card not the ati radeon.  |
