ThinkPad X60 tablet pen & multi-touch support?
Alex Taylor:
Thanks to Wim's assistance the stylus and multitouch are both working on this for me now!
It turns out that x200efs.cmd had the necessary stuff. I've now been provided with an X60 specific version and everything seems good.
I can calibrate the stylus by moving the mouse pointer to the bottom right corner of the screen, taking the stylus away, then bringing it back to the screen over the mouse pointer in the corner and starting to move the pointer again.
Many thanks to Wim for his help, and his excellent driver/tools.

I followed the instructions for the X60 - worked great although for some reason my X60's baud rate is 19200. Might be a useful observation for anyone else having trouble with 38400.
@Eugene, I was wondering what your reasoning was behind such a strong preference for the X61? A friend of mine has one, and we compared them when we were both running Kubuntu. There wasn't much of a noticeable difference, the X61 was marginally faster but not enough to write home about. Both machines have 3GB RAM, which is all you can use with eCs (or any other 32 bit OS) anyway. We also did a disk test (we have 64GB SSD drives) and the disk rates under Kubuntu with JFS were identical.
I would upgrade it to an X61no problem, the prices on them are pretty low. I just haven't seen the point when comparing them side by side, so I'm trying to understand your insistence that the X61 is that much better. I'll grant you the T61p is much better than the T60 but that's mainly due to a few oddities on the T60 and the high res widescreen that the T61p offers. The X61 doesn't seem like such a big upgrade.
