Hello

I am new in this mailinglist. I just bought a new IBM Thinkpad T41. Now 
I have some questions.

First of all to the poweroff. When I shutdown my system, the screen gets 
black, but  the  notebook hasn't really stopped. I also use ACPI maybe 
this is the problem, how I saw when I googled.

And the second problem is about my grafic card (Radeon Mobility M7 LW 
[Radeon Mobility 7500]). I want to use my s-video output. I saw a 
project GATOS (http://gatos.sourceforge.net/). I use XFree86 4.3.0 and 
have installed ati.2, but it still doesn't work. Here is my 
XFree86config, where I made some changes:

Section "Device"
Identifier "Radeon M7"
Driver "radeon"
Option "AGPMode" "4"
Option "EnableDepthMoves" "on"
Option "backingstore"
Option "TVOutput" "PAL"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 1"
Device "Radeon M7"
Monitor "IBM T41"

DefaultDepth 24

Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubsection
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "IBM T41"

HorizSync 31.5 - 90.0
VertRefresh 50-60
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

Here something what I use:
- Slackware 9.1
- Kernel 2.6.6

Have a nice day.
