Dear reader,

http://smolts.org/client/show_all/pub_8185710f-b9d8-48e4-98fb-d07287ddfbfc

is the smolt profile of this machine. Short version: Lenovo Ideapad 
S10-3t with cando touchscreen, N450 CPU yadda yadda.

Problems encountered:

- Netinstall not possible. Network card gets configured wrong. Solution: 
USB install and after reboot do:

   rmmod tg3
   modprobe broadcom
   modprobe tg3
  

Possible regression from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=BCM57780
( Closed Errata ) please comment on that one..

For some obscure reason the network card works after that.

- Wireless kills touchpad

Sounds weird, I know. The wireless only seems to run with kmod-wl-PAE 
from nonfree rpmfusion. After you install that and reboot, the buttons 
of the synaptics touchpad stop working. So no mouseclick possible anymore.

  

Well the procedure to get the wireless up and running should be something like this.

yum -y install broadcom-wl kernel-PAE-devel kmod-wl mesa-dri-drivers-experimental ( Optional for nouveau experimental 3d support )
modprobe lib80211
modprobe wl

Then dont forget to check settings in System -> Preferences -> Mouse in Gnome for the touchpad settings

- Touchscreen doesn't work

This litle netvertible has a fince cando touchscreen but I fail to find 
any hint to get it working.

  

http://lii-enac.fr/en/projects/shareit/xorg.html ( They are doing this on Fedora 12 in the video I think.. )

Ping the desktop list for MPX and status on general touchscreen support  ( Xorg and Gnome. F14 feature maybe for the desktop team to work at as in getting touchscreen in good shape? )  and the Kernel list to see if we ship the drivers I think both Ubuntu and Suse backported the drivers to the kernel they ship and I think I they got touchscreen working on either suse or ubuntu for the lenovo s10-3t  ( it might already be in kernel we ship atleast the 34 one I think.. )

Hopes this helps.
