This is the LaptopTestingTeam page for the Lenovo 3000 N100 FPG. The Lenovo website lists [http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-48NT8D laptops which are compatible] with various Linux distros (Suse, Novell, Red Hat, Turbolinux). The N100 has only been tested on the last two.

Screen resolution (1280x800)

You must install the package 915resolution (universe) in order to get the native 1280x800 resolution. Nothing else to configure, just install it and restart the X server (logout/login or Ctrl-Alt-Backspace).

{{{sudo apt-get install 915resolution }}}

Sound

Under Feisty, sound does not work out of the box, and still does not work including updates until the 3rd July 2007.

The solution provided here fixes the output problems: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1975260#post1975260

similar solutions can be found on: LaptopTestingTeam/Lenovo3000N100_0768 and LaptopTestingTeam/Lenovo3000C200_89224MG though ALSA is currently at a full release for version 1.0.14 (so the RC's are no longer required).

Microphone Capture

However, after fixing the sound, the microphone capture does not work. (neither front nor plugged in one). Both can be heard when turning on Unmute but cannot be used for recording.

To get microphone to work, use the instructions here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/701

After doing everything mentioned above, also start alsamixer from prompt, use tab and arrow keys to end up at capture and then hit spacebar to turn capturing on.
