I assume that was the BIOS with a fix to also boot Linux when no partition 
is marked bootable? Been there with my T520. But didn´t install the BIOS 
Update yet, just marked partition with /boot as bootable even when Linux 
itself does not need it.

Same here. I think the current tp-smapi doesn´t properly support the new 
models. I didn´t get anything back regarding my post on that topic on 
linux thinkpad mailing list.

Just as side-information (in case this would help even slightly):

I'm on a w500 with Ubuntu 10.10 (kernel 2.6.35-28) and it loads fine
(but I remember not getting the full tp_smapi features set from trying
it a few months ago).

$ sudo modprobe tp_smapi
$ lsmod |grep smapi
tp_smapi   26466  0 
thinkpad_ec 5866  1 tp_smapi

Best of luck,

Yannick
