== Configuration ==<br />
<br />
=== Kernel ===<br />
Enable Intel [[kernel mode setting]] driver:<br />
{{hc|/etc/mkinitcpio.conf|2=<nowiki><br />
MODULES="i915"<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
<br />
After saving the above files, make sure to regenerate your initram image by the command {{ic|mkinitcpio -p linux}}, and follow the steps in [[kernel parameters]].<br />
<br />
=== Screen ===<br />
<br />
X230 has IPS or TN screen with 125.37 DPI. Refer to [[HiDPI]] page for more information. It can be set with command {{ic|xrandr --dpi 125.37}} using {{ic|[[.xinitrc]]}}, {{ic|[[Xsession|.xsession]]}} or other autostarts.<br />
<br />
=== Brightness ===<br />
<br />
If you experience that your brightness setting is not restored on resume from suspend, then create config:<br />
<br />
{{hc|/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf|<br />
Section "Device"<br />
Identifier "card0"<br />
Driver "intel"<br />

BusID "PCI:0:2:0"<br />
EndSection<br />
}}<br />
<br />
=== Suspend to ram ===<br />
<br />
There is an issue with system shutdown with power saving tools that cannot distinguish sys devices. You will need to add to the systemd shutdown trigger on this machine or else you'll get a system reboot when you shutdown the machine. Put this in /etc/rc.local.shutdown and update and enable its service, if not already.<br />
<br />

=== UMTS Modem ===<br />
::''Main article: [[ThinkPad mobile Internet]]''<br />
<br />
{{Warning|Official UEFI comes with whitelist of PCI boards (e.g. Wi-Fi and UMTS miniPCI cards). After installing unapproved PCI device boot will be interrupted with error: {{ic|1802: Unauthorized network card is plugged in - Power off and remove the miniPCI network card (0AF0/7201). System is halted.}}}}<br />
<br />
Some models come with an integrated USB UMTS modem.<br />
<br />
{{hc|$ lsusb -d 0bdb:1926|<br />
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0bdb:1926 Ericsson Business Mobile Networks BV H5321 gw Mobile Broadband Driver}}<br />
<br />
In order for it to work with [[NetworkManager]], you will need to install [https://archlinux.org/packages/?name=modemmanager ModemManager] from the official repositories.<br />
<br />
For it to be recognized by ModemManager, you also need to set the kernel module option to:<br />
<br />
{{hc|/etc/modprobe.d/umts-modem.conf|output=<br />
options cdc_ncm prefer_mbim=N<br />
}}<br />
<br />
== Input devices ==<br />
<br />
=== TrackPoint ===<br />
::''Main article: [[TrackPoint]]''<br />
Laptop equipped with combined pointing device called [https://thinkwiki.org/wiki/UltraNav UltraNav™]. It incorporates small touchpad, three hardware buttons and TrackPoint.<br />
<br />
=== Touchpad ===<br />
{{Note|[[Touchpad Synaptics]] superseded by [[libinput]].}}<br />
<br />
The original configuration renders the touchpad quite useless, as it behaves very jumpily. [https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/1042069/comments/5 Ubuntu Bugtracker] offers a solution for this issue. Add the following:<br />
<br />
{{hc|/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf|2=<nowiki><br />
Section "InputClass"<br />
Identifier "touchpad"<br />
MatchProduct "SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad"<br />
# MatchTag "lenovo_x230_all"<br />

Option "VertScrollDelta" "500"<br />
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "500"<br />
EndSection<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
<br />
Setting e.g. the motion-acceleration value in ''dconf'' to 2.8 works nicely.<br />
<br />
=== Keyboard backlight control keys ===<br />
{{Accuracy|Working out of the box now?}}<br />
<!-- On my device keyboard lit keys {{ic|Fn+Space}} controlled by UEFI and working without an OS. Can be switched off by the kernel though. --><br />
{{Note| On most X230 models, backlight works by default without any issues. Use below only in case of any problems.}}<br />
<br />
Due to an issue with the firmware of several ThinkPads the backlight control keys ({{ic|Fn}} + {{ic|F8/F9}} on the X230) sometimes don't work correctly. Setting the brightness via e.g. the GNOME power control panel or altering the brightness value in ''sysfs'' is possible. The issue can be temporarily and partially fixed in adding the {{ic|<nowiki>acpi_osi="!Windows 2012"</nowiki>}} [[kernel parameter]]. The fix is partial in that only 8 steps are accessible via the keys. See [https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51231] for details.<br />
<br />
Power saving [[kernel parameters]] in addition to graphics card power saving, are shown below. {{ic|<nowiki>acpi_backlight=vendor</nowiki>}} loads the vendor specific [[Backlight#ACPI]] driver (i.e. thinkpad_acpi) so the brightness keys (Fn + F8 and Fn + F9) work correctly.<br />
<br />
Note that the {{ic|<nowiki>acpi_backlight=vendor</nowiki>}} kernel option also works with the standard Arch kernel (currently 3.7.10-1) and has the additional bonus that ({{ic|Fn+Space}}) controls the keyboard lighting.<br />
<br />
=== Sound control buttons ===<br />
{{Note|Laptop has single TRRS CTIA/Apple 3.5 mm audio jack (sleeve for a microphone).}}<br />
<br />
Red LED mute indicators light up automatically, if corresponding channel ''muted'' in {{ic|[[Advanced Linux Sound Architecture|alsamixer]]}}. Easiest way to make buttons work is to install [[PulseAudio]] and it's plugin for your [[desktop environment]].<br />
<br />
* [[GNOME]] - works out of the box<br />
* [[Xfce]] - install {{pkg|pulseaudio}} {{pkg|xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin}}, add plugin to panel and reboot. Additionally {{pkg|xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin}} uses {{pkg|pavucontrol}} as mixer and {{pkg|xfce4-notifyd}} for sound level popups<br />
* Handle ACPI events with [[acpid]] the [https://makandracards.com/makandra/47162-how-to-enable-the-thinkpad-microphone-mute-key-on-ubuntu-16-04 hard way]. Some functions like {{ic|thinkpad-mutemic}} implemented in {{AUR|thinkpad-scripts}}<br />
* See also [[ThinkPad: Mute button]]<br />
<br />
=== Fingerprint reader ===<br />
Supported by [[fprint]] out of the box. Used with [[PAM]] for authentication, eliminating necessity of password input (logon, sudo). Though it's impossible to turn laptop on and boot Arch right into a [[desktop environment]] by just one finger swipe.<br />
<br />
=== X230T (tablet version) ===<br />
==== Wacom tablet input ====<br />
Works out of the box with {{Pkg|xf86-input-wacom}}. See [[Wacom tablet]].<br />
<br />
==== Multitouch screen for the X230t ====<br />
Some X230t models have a multitouch screen in addition to the Wacom tablet. Works out of the box with {{Pkg|xf86-input-libinput}}.<br />
<br />
== OpenCL ==<br />
Thinkpad X230 based on Intel [[wikipedia:Ivy_Bridge_(microarchitecture)|Ivy Bridge]] (3rd generation) platform which meets [[OpenCL]] 1.2 specification. Unfortunately GPU support in Linux is broken, so {{AUR|beignet}} and {{AUR|intel-opencl}} won't work. Use CPU-only {{AUR|intel-opencl-runtime}} instead.<br />
<br />
OpenCL computation performance differ between CPU and GPU, depending on task. In many cases GPU is preferable. For ''Core(TM) i5-3210M'' CPU, which incorporates ''HD Graphics 4000'' GPU:<br />
<br />
* GPU {{ic|[[hashcat]] -m2500 -b -D 2 --force}} reports 3095 H/s (checked in Windows)<br />
* CPU {{ic|[[hashcat]] -m2500 -b -D 1}} reports only 2660 H/s, which is the same as no-OpenCL {{ic|aircrack-ng -S}}<br />
<br />
In this example OpenCL don't give any advantage and better look for other options like [[Makepkg#Building_optimized_binaries|building native binary]] for your system.<br />
<br />
== Power Saving ==<br />
::''Main article: [[Power saving]]''<br />
<br />
=== TLP ===<br />
Users of [[TLP]] need to pay attention to a hardware bug according to which it is recommended to only use either the upper or lower charging threshold. The following configuration is recommended by the developer of TLP.[http://thinkpad-forum.de/threads/184510-elementary-OS-Thinkpad-X230-einrichten?p=1865345&viewfull=1#post1865345]<br />
<br />
{{hc|/etc/tlp.conf|2=<nowiki><br />
START_CHARGE_THRESH_BAT0=67<br />
STOP_CHARGE_THRESH_BAT0=100<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
<br />
=== Charge thresholds ===<br />
In order to prolong battery lifespan, especially if laptop always connected to AC power supply, it's possible to keep battery charge between 40-80 %. You can use {{pkg|tpacpi-bat}} (written in Perl) for [[tp_smapi#2nd option, tpacpi-bat|setting charge thresholds]]. This tool was superseded by {{ic|[https://linrunner.de/en/tlp/docs/tlp-faq.html natacpi]}}, which included in kernel 4.17 and supported by [[TLP]]. Though it's possible to change thresholds directly. Values will be stored in battery microcontroller and will survive reboot, but reset if you remove the battery.<br />
<br />
# echo 40 > /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_start_threshold<br />
# echo 80 > /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/charge_stop_threshold<br />
<br />
=== Fan control ===<br />
<br />
To optimize fan control, install and setup [[Fan_speed_control#ThinkPad_laptops|thinkfan]]. Then use the following configuration:<br />
<br />
{{hc|/etc/thinkfan.conf|output=<br />
sensors:<br />
- hwmon: /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp<br />
fans:<br />
- tpacpi: /proc/acpi/ibm/fan<br />
levels:<br />
- [0, 0, 60]<br />
- [1, 53, 65]<br />
- [2, 55, 66]<br />
- [3, 57, 68]<br />
- [4, 61, 70]<br />
- [5, 64, 71]<br />
- [7, 68, 32767]<br />
}}<br />
<br />
You might want to add<br />
<br />
- ["level full-speed", 68, 32767]<br />
<br />
It drives the fan at full speed which is normally not possible. It enables the x230 to run in turbo-boost for extended periods of time.<br />
<br />
== UEFI ==<br />
Laptop incorporates InsydeH2O® UEFI BIOS with classic text interface. It supports [[UEFI]] with [[Secure Boot]], UEFI-CSM and Legacy BIOS modes.<br />
<br />
=== Boot configuration ===<br />
UEFI boot options can be safely (no bricking) set with {{pkg|efibootmgr}} or [[Unified Extensible Firmware Interface#UEFI Shell|UEFI Shell]] v2 (checked with ''BIOS 2.77 (G2ETB7WW) EC 1.15''). Though you can delete ''any'' boot variable, so be careful!<br />
<br />
X230 in UEFI-non-CSM mode installed with [[EFISTUB]] on [[Solid state drive|SSD disk]] boots into [[display manager]] in less than 25 seconds. Small [[ESP]] (100 MiB fat32) also supported.<br />
<br />
=== USB UEFI update ===<br />
{{Tip|There are unofficial firmware available, such as [https://doc.coreboot.org/mainboard/#lenovo Coreboot] or [http://osresearch.net/ Heads] in order to remove hardware whitelists and provide trusted boot.}}<br />
<br />
All official updates, including Windows utility, Bootable CD and documentation can be found [https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/gb/en/downloads/ds029187 here]. You can use {{AUR|geteltorito}} to create bootable USB images from the Bootable CD:<br />
<br />
$ geteltorito.pl g2uj24us.iso > update.img <br />
# dd bs=512K if=update.img of=/dev/sdX<br />
<br />
Insert USB stick, reboot and press {{ic|F12}}, choose your USB. Follow the instructions.<br />
<br />
=== Trusted Platform Module ===<br />
Laptop has dedicated [[TPM]] 1.2 chip onboard[https://www.st.com/en/secure-mcus/st33tpm12lpc.html][https://trustedcomputinggroup.org/membership/certification/tpm-certified-products/]. It doesn't looks like it can be upgraded to TPM 2.0. Chip itself disabled by default sometimes, also owner clearing won't appear without ''Supervisor password'' set:<br />
<br />
# Enter Thinkpad UEFI Setup by pressing {{ic|F1}}<br />
# Set ''Security > Password'' > ''Supervisor password''<br />
# Set ''Security > Security Chip > Security Chip [Active]''<br />
# Save settings by pressing F10 and reboot<br />
# '''Turn laptop off''', turn on and UEFI option ''Security > Security Chip > Clear Security Chip'' eventually will appear.<br />
<br />
Process described in "ThinkPad X230 and X230i User Guide", ''Chapter 4. Security > Setting the security chip''.<br />
<br />
== Known issues ==<br />
* There is a BIOS bug that gets in the way of the boot process with [[LUKS]] and full-disk encryption. The user is stuck at the "Loading initial ramdisk" step, and does not see a password prompt to unlock the encrypted device. You can actually enter your password at this step, and boot-up will continue. However, updating the BIOS will resolve this completely.<br />
* UEFI option to clear [[TPM]] not working. STM chip datasheet describes physical presence pin, which, probably, can be used as workaround.<br />

==== Pastebin clients ====<br />
<br />
See also [[Wikipedia:Pastebin]].<br />
<br />
Pastebin services are often used to quote text or images while collaborating and troubleshooting. Pastebin clients provide a convenient way to post from the command line.<br />
<br />
{{Tip| You can access the [http://ix.io/ ix.io] pastebin using curl. For example pipe the output of a command to ix.io: {{bc|''command'' <nowiki>|& curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io </nowiki>}} or upload a file: {{bc|<nowiki>curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io < </nowiki>''file''}}<br />
[http://sprunge.us/ sprunge.us] has a similar service, and also offers a plain HTML form.}}<br />
<br />
{{Note| [http://pastebin.com/ pastebin.com] is blocked for some people and has a history of annoying issues (javascript, adverts, poor formatting, etc). Do ''not'' use it.}}<br />

Davinci Resolve is a proprietary video editor, color correction and compositing application.<br />
<br />
== Installation ==<br />
There is a free version and a paid version (a.k.a. Studio).<br /><br />
For free version [[Install]] the {{AUR|davinci-resolve}} or {{AUR|davinci-resolve-beta}} package.<br /><br />
For studio version install {{AUR|davinci-resolve-studio}} or {{AUR|davinci-resolve-studio-beta}} package.<br />
<br />
To run Davinci Resolve it is required to have suitable OpenGL driver and suitable OpenCL driver.<br />
<br />

So currently it is not possible to use intel gpu alone. If using AMD + Intel setups, you can render on intel (set it as primary in uefi setup) and install proprietary opencl driver for amd gpu.<br />
<br />
== Troubleshooting ==<br />
=== Application window misses title bar ===<br />
It is a problem of a Linux version of D.R. There is a workaround for KDE - a window rule to force enable title bar. See [https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?=21&t=56878&p=456990#p456990]<br />
<br />
=== My .mp4 clips are shown as audio clips and even its sound is not working ===<br />
This problem only affects a free version of D.R. for Linux. To workaround, you may convert your video file to another format or purchase a studio version.<br />
<br />
=== HiDPI ===<br />
To enable compatibility with high-resolution displays, set the following environment variables accordingly:<br />
<br />
export QT_DEVICE_PIXEL_RATIO=2<br />
export QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=true<br />
