X200s,debian 8 (Jessie) Installation flow account

1. USB stick to start the installation
A. Because the wireless network card driver is non-free, need to download, the corresponding x200s, the file is Iwlwifi-5000-5.ucode, under the root of the installation of the USB flash drive, the installation will not prompt but directly installed
B. Vesamenu.c32:not a COM32R image error occurred after USB drive started. This does not affect the installation, knocking a tab, the available commands will appear, enter the install can continue the installation

2. The installation process is always fail when the install package is almost complete. Press ALT+F2 to view the installation log under/var/log/under the console and find that there are many size unmatched errors. Replaced several times the source, finally with the BJTU source after the problem solved

3. Language selection only Chinese. Need to modify the/etc/locale.gen, remove some of the comments, and then run Locale-gen, then go to the configuration, there are many languages can choose

4. After installing the input method does not appear in the applications any icon, this question after switching to the Chinese solves, then cuts back the English, the icon still is still in. Later loaded is FCITX, I do not know IBUs not success is also this reason. The Input method icon in the upper right corner has never appeared.

5. Small red dot (pointing lever) is enabled, to install Gpointing-device-settings. But this thing doesn't save the settings, and after each reboot or hibernation, the configuration fails. The solution is to add a 20-thinkpad.conf file under/usr/share/x11/xorg.conf.d/, which is configured as

Section"Inputclass"Identifier"TrackPoint Whell Emulation"matchproduct"TrackPoint"Matchdevicepath"/dev/input/event*"Driver"Evdev"Option"Emulatewheel" "true"Option"Emulatewheelbutton" "2"Option"emulate3buttons" "false"Option"xaxismapping" "6 7"Option"yaxismapping" "4 5"endsection

This allows you to save the settings.
