I encountered some difficulties getting some components to work on a fresh installation of Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic.

Microphone was not working. Alsamixer was displaying wrong devices. I simply had to edit this file:
gksu gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
and add this line at the bottom:
options snd-hda-intel model=fujitsu
After reboot audio I/O is 100% working.

-Stylus could not be calibrated, stylus buttons didn't work, and input tablet rotation did not follow screen rotation.
My solution was to edit this file:
gksu gedit /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/10-linuxwacom.fdi
and replace its contents with the configuration file named Favux_new-generic_rc2_10-linuxwacom.fdi that I found here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1038949 (registration needed).
After rebooting, I could calibrate the stylus by running:
wacomcpl

For screen rotation (or screen orientation), I found a simple script here:

I hope these info can be helpful.

For the digitizer rotation, try the linuxwacom package, more specifically xsetwacom. Works perfectly

I think if you add that and also install wacom / wdaemon from yum you will be okay. Now I will try to make it work even I ” rotate ” the screen, cause the digitizer works like the screen works without rotation :D

Hello, I got a T5010 fujitsu-siemens Tablet, installed Fedora 10. Works pretty nice most of devices, webcam too!.

Wifi , USB wifi , bluetooth worked fine. Now I am trying to make digitizer to work, as shortcuts for changing 90 angle screen when I work the tablet as tablet. Finger print sencor , and scroll sencor on the screen didn't work, if I make them work I'll let you know !

Awesome!
I'm getting one soon and was wondering if you could tell me:
how did you get the webcam working?
Thank you very much!!
