I have a T61 and I tried to give you what you requested, but I ran into
some problems. First, my BIOS doesn't seem to be any version at all
related to "2.07":
jjj@Devil7:~$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version
7LET56WW (1.26 )
And then when I ran sudo demidecode it overran the terminal window so I
cannot copy it all. I know there is a way to output a command to file,
but I'm too new to Linux and I can't remember how.
And as for acpidump, this is the result:
jjj@Devil7:~$ sudo acpidump
sudo: acpidump: command not found
I am using Gutsy x86_64 on my T61 and everything important is working,
except the 4965AGN wireless, which hangs up on me at random. For that I
am substituting a Netgear WG511 (v. A) card until there is a fix.
