Hi,
I have received an IBM Thinkpad R40e (2684 QVG) and I'm trying to install Linux on it. I have tried the latest Severn, Taroon, and the official Redhat 9 - all gives the same problem - a keyboard lockup...
Here's what I'm doing: I'm putting the CD inside and boot the thinkpad. When I'm getting the "media check" stage - the keyboard is totally locked, and I cannot do anything (other then shut the machine down)...
I tried to boot into Linux rescue using the 1st CD - it stuck, again, when I needed to select language (the first menu)..
I did try to install Mandrake 9.1 - and haven't spotted those problems there (but I hate mandrake and I want to use redhat)
Any suggestions? tips?
Thanks, Hetz
