Anyone know where to find genuine Lenovo replacement batteries for the X41 non-tablet? Have looked on ebay and Google and can only find non-OEM.

Thanks.

Re: X41 Tablet Ubuntu 10.04 Docking Issue

I am not using Ubuntu, but on Windows 7 I installed Presentation Director and setup a profile for docked and undocked and that has solved the display problem.

Re: X61 Dock Mode

When I undock the video output doesn't switch back from the monitor to the LCD.

Also, I would like to be able to configure it to use ethernet when docked and wireless when undocked. Other than that, it does register as docked and shows the dvd drive etc.

Re: Dock/Undock Windows 7

As usual, you're right. Putting it to sleep before undocking or docking seems to be the best method.

Dock/Undock Windows 7

Anyone been able to figure out a smooth way to do this? When I undock my computer hangs or puts itself to sleep because the lid is closed.

I can see the undock button from the shutdown menu though.

Re: best dock for x41?

i am using the x4 dock and it has neither. does have stereo speakers though. if those two that you list are the only available docks for the x41 then i think it is the case unfortunately. ah well.

Re: best dock for x41?

so neither of those have audio out, which is odd. guess there aren't any docks with that capability for the x41.

Re: X40 squealing sound near AC plug area, how long until death?

I had a similar problem on my X41.

The problem ended up being with the AC adapter. Sent it in to Lenovo and the new one they sent me back didn't cause the squealing. Can't remember what the issue was, but I am sure you can Google for it.

Maybe a mismatched voltage fried your MB?

Re: RAM upgrade for X41 (Not Tablet)

Update:

It worked!

Highly recommended upgrade because for less than $20 it effectively doubled my RAM to 2GB. Shame that it can't use that last .5GB but who am I to complain.

RAM upgrade for X41 (Not Tablet)

Anyone know if this will work:

Kingston 2GB 200-Pin DDR2 SO-DIMM DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Laptop Memory

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6820134549

I know it is limited to 2GB by the chipset. Just curious if this speed is backwards compatible.

Thanks for your help.

Gator

Bought an X41 from Gator and he did a great job with it, both in the description and shipping it here in time. Highly recommend him.
