## page was copied from AA1 <> <> <> = Ubuntu on the Lenovo IdeaPad S-series S10 and S12 = The Lenovo Ideapad S10 and S12 are a type of ultra-portable computer called a "Netbook". S10 is in the same class as the Asus [[EeePC]] and the [[AA1]]. S12 is in the same class as the [[NC20|Samsung NC20]] and the HP Pavilion dv2. Hardware may be one of three version: VIA platform, Intel platform and ION platform = Compatibility = == 10.10/11.04[development] (Maverick/Natty) == === ION platform === * Everything not described here works out of the box * Battery discharging information is not available in gnome-power-manager (unresolved for now, LP#669062) * Wireless: Install the proprietary driver, blacklist the module acer_wmi to fix the issue with wireless being disabled on every boot. (See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IdeaPadS/Fixes ) == 9.10 (Karmic Koala) == === S12 VIA platform === * Processor: VIA Nano ULV 2250. Works perfectly, but in amd64 version of Ubuntu openssl needs patching to use padlock engine. * Video: VIA Chrome9 HC3. Works with openchrome driver from svn. It gives basic functionality and no 3D acceleration and no HD hardware decoding. A better solution for graphics is described in [[NC20|Samsung NC20]] page. An easy guide on how to install it is given there. See: "Proprietary graphics driver" section. Allows 3D and HD video hardware decoding. * Audio: VT1708/A (Intel HD audio with Realtek codec), built-in speakers and headphones work. Microphone is reported to work with Alsa of version 1.0.20 and above. * Wireless: BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) [id 4315] (low-power version of BCM4312). Requires proprietary driver, or free driver b43 from compat-wireless-2.6 (in Ubuntu it included in linux-backports-modules-karmic package) with firmware from proprietary driver. Works well. * Special Keys and LEDs: Out of box doesn't work "One key recovery" button and "Quick start" button. Fn+F5 "Wireless toggle" doesn't seem to do anything. Others work great. * Camera: built-in camera works. == 9.10 Netbook Remix (Karmic Koala) (alpha) == === S12 Intel platform === * Video: Intel 945GME: Works perfectly. * Audio: built-in speakers and microphone work, others not tested yet. * Wireless: requires proprietary drivers. Works well. * Special Keys and LEDs: All work well! * Camera: built-in camera works. Doesn't seem to work on live cd. === S10 === * == 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) == === S12 VIA platform === * Video: Works fine with the newest driver from [[linux.via.com.tw|Via linux portal]] * Audio: Speakers and headphones work. Microphone works after alsa is updated * Wireless: WLAN works well with proprietary STA driver. Bluetooth not tested * Special keys and LEDs: Works well except for "Quick Start" and "Recovery" buttons. * Camera: Built-in camera works == 9.04 Netbook Remix (Jaunty Jackalope) == * Not tested = Getting Started = Please visit the [[IdeaPadS/Installation]] section first.
